Three Song Sampler (1995) Fashion Nugget (1996) Prolonging the Magic (1998)

Fashion Nugget is the second album by Cake, an alternative rock band from Sacramento, California. It was released in 1996 (see 1996 in music), and contains fourteen songs. "The Distance" became one of the band's biggest hits, and managed to help the album go platinum.

An instrumental version of "Italian Leather Sofa" was later used as the theme song for the TV show Mission Hill.

The album received a Parental Advisory sticker for profanity in "I Will Survive" (a single instance of 'fucking', which was not in the original version by Gloria Gaynor) and extensive use of 'fuck' in the chorus of 'Nugget'.
