What this record means
The record shows that “IMA CUDDLE CAKE, LLC “AN INDULGENT, SWEET TASTE”” was registered on the Principal Register in 2016 but was cancelled in December 2022 because the owner failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The owner is Ima Cuddle Cake, LLC, a limited liability company organized in Virginia. The mark protects the word “Cakes” for the class 030 staple foods, specifically cakes. A similar name would raise the closest concern for businesses selling cakes or similar staple foods. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word “cake” in all contexts. The prosecution history shows a normal sequence of examination, allowance, and use statements, with no indication of a Supplemental Register. The latest event is the cancellation on December 23, 2022, and no enforcement actions are recorded. For someone considering a similar name, the cancelled status reduces the risk, but the goods covered—cakes—remain a potential area of concern.
