I do agree about the color range: Although I chose Honey, which works well, I would’ve loved a shade in between Honey and Caramel. (There are three colors in total: Honey, Caramel, and Cocoa.) Picking out my size was simple, too. For Sticky Cakes Circles, there are three sizes: Itty-Bitty (3″ by 3″ covers that fit AA-B cups), OG (4″ by 4″ covers that fit B to DD cups), and Plus (5″ by 5″ covers that fit DDD and above). I’ve oscillated between a B and C cup over the years, so the OG cups were a pretty sure bet. If you’re unsure about your size, you can always use a handy online measuring tool like this one—and, if you’re in between sizes, Cakes Body recommends sizing up because it’s always safer to go the route of more coverage. (I couldn’t agree more!)
How I Wear Them
Oh, the possibilities are endless, aren’t they? Unless I’m wearing something looser like a sweater or sweatshirt, I’m pulling out my Cakes. In my time-crunched experience, it’s not worth the try-ons to see if a bra will look seamless when I know a pair of Cakes will keep me covered without anything I don’t want to show, well, showing. The Sticky Cakes Circles don’t budge, and the edges aren’t noticeable throughout entire days, even when you’re looking from the side (as you can see above). I’ve worn too-thin, too-flimsy covers that barely conceal my nipples, but not with Cakes—they have the ideal, Goldilocks-level thickness.

By the way, Cakes Body doesn’t just offer circular nipple covers. Another style worth your consideration is the Sticky Triangles. I’m not sure why I haven’t tried non-circular nipple covers until now, but there’s a very solid case for them. While I don’t have a ton of low-cut tops, the ones I do have are tricky to style with undergarments—I usually opt for a lacy bralette that does peek out but doesn’t look too out of place. The Sticky Cakes Triangles are perfect for lower necklines (including V-cut), where the top of the circles would definitely poke out. Now? Problem solved. And, just like the Nip-Nook-designed Circles, the Triangles spare my nipples from any painful experiences.
My Final Thoughts
The Sticky Cakes have quickly become my go-to nipple covers, ousting a different brand (which, to be fair, is still good) from the top spot, and the nip dip—as I’ve personally started calling it—is the main contributing factor. While I don’t have sensitive nips, you can’t really err on the side of too cautious. (And if/when I have kids, when I deal with breastfeeding, Cakes Body will be top of mind.) Another non-negotiable: I haven’t experienced my covers slipping, nor have the edges looked obvious. (I do think the triangles are a tad more noticeable, but it’s not to a degree where I’d stop using them.)
