Gifts for International Beer Day

Send some wonderful tasty gifts for International Beer Day

It’s International Beer Day on 6th August, a day to celebrate all things beer! The average consumption of pints of beer, per capita in the UK, per person, per year, is a huge 119 pints! We are a nation of beer lovers, and the UK also had the largest number of breweries at over 2,000, and that is a rise of 64% in just five years!

So, it’s only right that we celebrate this wonderful drink on International Beer Day. You’ll be pleased to know that we deliver beer with our baked goods, and they can be delivered anywhere in the UK.

Whole Cakes

Having a bottle of beer with some cake is a great way to celebrate International Beer Day, we have a wonderful range of cakes to choose from; once you’ve selected your ideal cake flavour you can add a bottle of beer to the basket to be included in the box with your cake and delivered straight to your door. Here are a few of our yummy cake flavours:

Chocolate Orange Cake – A chocolate orange cake with a light marbled sponge of orange oil & chocolate with delicious chocolate buttercream. Chocolate and natural orange flavours are swirled together to create a delicious marbled chocolate orange sponge. Buttercream is made with British butter and decadent chocolate. Three different drizzles decorate the top.

Bakewell Cake – A bakewell cake made with natural almond with crushed raspberry jam & toasted flaked almonds. Natural almond oil and free range eggs make this yummy and light sponge cake. A smattering of raspberry jam in the middle and an almond oil infused buttercream. Crunchy flaked almonds sit on top.

Millionaires Cake – A millionaires cake with a vanilla and chocolate cake, toffee and caramel butter icing and chocolate drizzle. Half of the sponge is hand-made with natural vanilla flavouring and free range eggs and the other half is made with indulgent chocolate. Caramel and natural toffee flavouring create a luxurious buttercream. Pretty drizzled milk and white chocolate on the top.

These are just a couple of the delicious cakes we have available, visit our whole cakes page to see the full range.
