Cake considered the album more professionally produced than Motorcade, despite references to its " raw " sound, and the reception was again generally positive ; critics noted the broadening of Cake's sound, with Joshua Green noting in the Westword that " Nugget spans a broader range of topics than did Motorcade, with similarly appealing results ", and Matt Weitz in the Dallas Observer saying that " The gimlet eye and sardonic humor of 1994's Motorcade of Generosity is intact, but Fashion Nugget is aptly named ; it updates Motorcade with beatboxy soul and hip-hop rhythms ".

Both the album release and the tour happened in mid-April, with Cake playing at the London Astoria.

The album was also preceded by its first single, " No Phone ", which hit number 13 on Billboard's Modern Rock Tracks chart ; the song covered the ubiquitous and privacy-invading use of cell phones, and was described by Jeremy Mahadevan of the New Straits Times as " a traditionally minimalist Cake anthem, with a killer melody and, unique to this album, fairly extensive use of synths ".

Although it was acknowledged as a continuation of their old work, albeit with an increased use of synthesisers, Sam Spies of the Richmond Times-Dispatch noted that " the experiments in style that made Cake fun to listen to have all but disappeared from ' Pressure Chief ' ... What's left is mostly uninspired, so-called alternative rock ", and Graeme Hammond of the Sunday Herald Sun wrote that " the melodies are listless, the album bereft of anything with the verve of Short Skirt / Long Jacket or Comfort Eagle ".

Cake later formed their own label, Upbeat Records, which allowed them to release the compilation album B-Sides and Rarities on August 14, 2007.

Reviews of B-Sides and Rarities were generally good ; Devin Grant of The Post and Courier wrote that " For an album full of odds and ends, this Cake release is every bit as good, and every bit as fun, as the band's previous studio releases ", while Catherine P. Lewis of The Washington Post noted that, although several live tracks reduced the album's strength, " there are still enough charming nuggets to make this album less disposable than the typical rarities compilation ".

After six years without a new studio album, Cake recorded Showroom of Compassion in 2010 and released it on January 11, 2011.

The album itself opened at number 1 on the Billboard Top 200 Albums, selling 44, 000 copies ; this marked not only the first time a Cake album had hit the number 1 spot in an opening week, but also the lowest sales numbers for an album at the top of that chart.

To promote the album, Cake performed on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon and The Tonight Show with Jay Leno before releasing Showroom of Compassions second single, " Long Time ".
