Classic
The background takes place in a fish tank with a treasure chest, barrel, an octopus playing drums with the Just Dance logo on it, and seahorses in sunglasses playing guitars. During the chorus, a disco ball comes down and glowing jellyfish appear in the back. Behind the glass of the fish tank is a low-lit living room, which was recycled from Blame It On The Boogie.

Earphone Version
The background is a beach shore with a bluey-green colored van, a red surfing board, a lifeguard seat and palm trees. In most points through the routine, the background appears to cycle through different photo filters and zooms on it. At the bridge of the song, the background focuses on the dancers, who are inside a square that follows them. At the end of the routine, the background turns into an instant picture caught by P2's phone, with the two dancers posing within it.

VIPMADE
The VIPMADE routine takes place in a living room with a green sofa, a small black table at his left with a plant, a large mirror with a grey frame and grey floor. There are many elements from the background of the Classic routine, along with a sea surface effect and a glass effect.

Trivia

 * The radio edit for this song (which replaces f***ing crazy with crazy-crazy, god damn with hot damn, and f***king delicious with so delicious) is used in game. Damn is additionally censored.
 * Cake By The Ocean is the third song in the franchise to feature Joe Jonas after Burnin' Up with the Jonas Brothers, and This Is Me.
 * However, this is his first song in the main series. This song is also his first in the games with DNCE.
 * This is the first song to have a VIPMADE.
 * The VIPMADE routine is exclusive to Germany.
 * This song was planned to be officially revealed at Gamescom, but it was prematurely revealed two weeks earlier.
 * In early drafts for the game, the background behind the fish tank was a diner with tables of ketchup and mustard instead of a living room. The octopus was whiter and the second seahorse has green arms instead of fuchsia arms.
 * The living room shown in the Classic routine behind the fish tank is recycled from Blame It on the Boogie.
 * The earphone routine may be a nod to the Hold-My-Hand routines in and, but this also might not be the case.
 * In the VIPMADE routine, the pictograms slide on a duet bar and, because of this, they are more stretched horizontally.

 * P1 has a slightly different haircut and wears a black and white Yankees jacket over a white T-shirt.
 * P2 has long red hair and wears a white dress.
 * The menu icon for the Earphones version was initially different: the wire for the earphones had the same outline as the coaches'. In the final version, it has no outline.
