A friends birthday last night, got smashed with cake in the face and of course cake fell on the carpet. How do you get cake out of carpet. This is at a restaurant so the carpet is flat and smooth, not like house carpet.
The icing is red. Would Oxyclean work? Im going to look for some cleaning spray at WalMart later. It is at my friends restaurant, not sure if they have that amazing cleaner Neptune is talking about. Do you know what it looks like since you dont know the name? Will Walmart carry it?

    If possible.. let dry first
    vacuum
    1st try a spot cleaner like resolve high traffic
    if it doesn’t work
    use a professional shampooer

    are you the owner of the establishment?
    customers are not usually responsible for spills/stains
    it should be corrected by the owners/employees

    The type of capet you describe is the easiest to keep clean.

    I imagine it is mostly dried up icing by now and the crumbs have been picked up.

    Icing is mainly sugar so water and mild soap should do the trick. Just don’t wet the area excessively, meaning, just use a damp rag to wipe it. The best thing to use is a mild carpet soap like Bissel.

    You can also try those spray can foam cleaners, you vacuum then spray over the stain or area you want to cleam, once dry, vacuum.

    There is also a great product for institutions, restaurants,for carpet spot cleaning, it is a dry compound used with a spray, first you spray the area, (in my case a dried up coffee stain, whole coffee pot), then sprinkle the dry (looks like laundry soap) white crystles let set a minute or two can spray more before you lightly scrub, the stain disappears. I don’t remember the name of the product but was amazed by it. But distributors for business would probably carry it. Good luck Neptune2bsure

    See for a list of CERTIFIED SPOT REMOVERS.

    OxiClean & Resolve are NOT on the list because they often set stains or make the worse.

    Hire a professional if all else fails Matt P
