Bakewell Cake

Name: Bakewell Cake
Brand: Sponge
Rating: 4.77 (396 reviews)

Award-winning, much-missed and finally back. Our Bakewell Cake layers soft almond sponge with buttery frosting, a generous swipe of raspberry jam and a crunchy crown of toasted almonds. Some flavours deserve an encore (or three).

Also available in gluten free and vegan

Meet the cake you asked for (don’t worry, we saw the emails!) Our Bakewell Cake is back, bringing all the classics with it: light almond sponge, silky buttercream frosting and filling, a bold hit of raspberry jam, and a scattering of toasted chopped almonds for crunch. It’s nostalgic, indulgent and just the right side of fancy.

Award-winning and forever a fan-favourite, this returning legend has earned its place back on the menu. Because this is the kind of cake you say yes to.

Storage & Care

GET THAT SWEET SPOT

Buttercream loves a gentle warm-up, and brownies need a little patience to reach their soft, gooey magic. Our bakes have been chilling in transit and need time to be their best so if your sponge is a little dry give it some more time.

ROOM TEMP, BEST TEMP

Let your bake rest in their packaging for up to 12 hours or when it reaches room temperature. It will then be at its full, fluffy glory. Cake is always at its best when it’s cosy, not chilly.

KEEP IT FRESH

Pop leftovers in an airtight container and store somewhere cool and dry... no fridge chills or sunbathing, please! Keeping them at room temperature keeps your bakes soft, gooey, and full of joy.

FREEZE FOR FUTURE JOY

Celebration postponed? Wrap your cake carefully and freeze for up to six months. When you’re ready, thaw at room temperature to bring back that soft, fresh-baked magic you love.

I've tried this a couple of times and each were fantastic

Welcome Back Bakewell, so very tasty full flavoured sponge. Full of filling , right to the edges to "squidge" out , yummy treat at anytime of day ( or night 😁)

Delicious.

The Bakewell cake is absolutely delicious and tastes just like you would expect a high quality Bakewell to taste.

Another winner in Sponge's selection. I know it was brought back for a limited time but perhaps it will become a regular!

I love anything that has an almond flavour so Bakewell would always be my first choice.

The Bakewell sponge cake tastes fantastic would highly recommend

Beautiful my favourite more buttercream please lol but big thank you to all the team

The case was nice and could taste the almonds in it. It was a bit dry because it took a week to arrive.

I don’t normally like bakewell, bought this for my partners birthday as it’s his favourite. He totally loved it and even i enjoyed it, wasn’t too sweet, cream was gorgeous and the sponge was moist

Again people thought it was a bit dry

Very tasty

Great almond taste, moist and flavourful and not overly sweet even with the buttercream

This is one of my absolute favourites of all time ...yummy yum.

The taste, texture and quality of the cake was worth every penny.

i gave it score 5 because it had a rich almond flavour and a generouse almond topping . . my husband loved it and kept going back to the cake tin where it should be safe , not ...a really deliouse cake looks good too thankyou

The Bakewell cake was delicious and very moist and it smelt wonderful!
