Raspberries are lovely fruits that many of us enjoy, the berry has a mild sweetness but it can also be sharp which is great for cutting through other sweetness to create a lovely eating experience and a well-balanced treat. We think that’s why Raspberries work so well in cakes, whether it’s fresh raspberries which can make a cake moister, to freeze-dried raspberries which can give you a zingy burst of raspberry flavour. You can also add raspberries in powder form which can introduce that raspberry flavour and bring in some of the raspberry colour to the cake too.
And raspberry pairs with quite a few different flavours, so if you want to make your own it may be fun to experiment and find out what your favourite combination is. Or, if you don’t have time to faff about baking, or don’t have the skills, you can still enjoy a delicious raspberry cake on Raspberry Cake Day on the 31st of July 2022, by ordering one from Sponge.

Our sponge cakes are packaged in secure and robust packaging. The inner box is wrapped around the cake to securely hold it in place so the sides and top do not get damaged in transit.
