Summer Berries: The fruit of the moment
The Season of Sunshine, Sponge Cake and Strawberries
When summer arrives, so do the flavours we wait all year for.
We're talking juicy berries, fresh fruit fillings, colourful buttercream, and soft sponge cake that's perfect for garden parties, BBQs, picnics, and afternoons spent chasing the sunshine.
Not fruit cake fruit cake, of course. We'll leave that for December.
Summer is all about light, fruity flavours and cakes that look just as good on the table as they taste on the plate.
From strawberry-filled favourites to raspberry-packed showstoppers, here are the cakes we'll be reaching for all season long.
Strawberry Sprinkle Cake: Pure Joy in Cake Form
If summer had an official birthday cake, we'd like to nominate the Strawberry Sprinkle Cake.It starts with fluffy vanilla sponge cake, layered with sweet strawberry jam and smooth strawberry buttercream. Then comes the finishing touch: a generous helping of colourful strand sprinkles.
The result?
A cake that's bright, cheerful, and impossible not to smile at.
Perfect for: Summer birthdays, Family gatherings, Garden parties Office celebrations and Random Tuesdays that need improving
There's something magical about strawberry flavour. Maybe it's the colour. Maybe it's the nostalgia. Maybe it's because every bite tastes like summer.

Raspberry and White Chocolate: The Sophisticated Summer Slice
For those who like their fruit flavours with a slightly fancy twist, the Raspberry and White Chocolate Cake is ready to steal the spotlight.
Soft vanilla sponge layers are filled with rich raspberry buttercream, creamy white chocolate chunks, and fruity raspberry pieces, before being finished with a white chocolate drizzle.
It's sweet, slightly tangy, wonderfully indulgent, and packed with texture in every bite.

"I'll bring the cake" moments- It's also one of our most versatile celebration cakes, available as a traditional cake, a vegan birthday cake, and a gluten-free option.

Strawberries & Cream: A British Summer Classic

Fish and chips. Tea and biscuits. Strawberries and cream.
Our Strawberries & Cream Cake captures everything we love about a British summer. Inspired by sunny afternoons, tennis season, and outdoor celebrations, it combines soft vanilla sponge cake with fruity strawberry flavours and smooth cream-inspired buttercream.
The result is a cake that's light, nostalgic, and incredibly easy to go back for another slice.
