Black oil sunflower and sunflower chips are what pull cardinals, grosbeaks, and juncos to a suet cake that plain suet wouldn't attract. That's the blend behind Armstrong Birder's Choice Suet Cake, 320g, a beef-tallow cake made in Canada and sized for a standard wire suet cage or hopper feeder.
Which Birds Does the Sunflower Blend Actually Bring In?
It's marketed as drawing northern cardinals, evening and rose-breasted grosbeaks, dark-eyed juncos, downy, hairy, and red-bellied woodpeckers, white-breasted and red-breasted nuthatches, blue jays, Steller's jays, black-capped chickadees, common redpolls, and northern flickers.
What's the Cake Made of, Beyond the Sunflower?
The cake is built from rendered beef fat, cut corn, white millet, black oil sunflower, and sunflower chips, pressed into a slim cake that's best offered during colder weather months, when the extra energy matters most.
Who This Is For
- Anyone hoping to see cardinals or grosbeaks at their feeder this winter
- A birder already feeding through the cold who wants to add more variety
- Someone looking for a small add-on gift to pair with a feeder or seed
- A gift for someone who already owns a wire suet cage or hopper feeder
