What size cakes do you sell?

How should I store a lemon drizzle cake?

We believe cakes taste best when they arrive, but if needed, you can freeze our lemon drizzle cake for up to six months. Just then defrost for around 10 hours before serving and ensure the cake is up to room temperature before eating.

Can I store a lemon drizzle cake in the fridge?

Storing a cake in the fridge can dry out the cake and give it a dry texture. We would recommend storing in an air-tight container at room temperature. Our cakes will last from around 7 - 10 days from dispatch.

Do you sell birthday cakes?

Our cakes are perfect for birthdays, and all occasions! From the classics like Victoria Sponge and Chocolate Cake, to seasonal specials and party-tastic options - there's something for everyone.

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.

The recipients enjoyed the cake very much, Thank you 😊 Delicious Recipient adored it. Lemon drizzle cake was very tasty! Tasty centrepiece at my Macmillan coffee morning!! It is the perfect cake for anyone that love that zingy lemon flavour. Great for the price with the convenience of it being delivered to your door. Tasty and so pretty to look at Not usually one I enjoy but I enjoyed this one. Recipient very happy and said it tasted amazing. Candles looked good too! Beautiful cake, will definately order again. Moist sponge. Perfect amount of cream. Just the right amount of lemon as well. Lovely Looked great. It was big enough the smaller size. Tasted like lemon . Filling buttery. Would like to try other flavours now Absolutely dilicious Lovely flavour this cake was for my nephew,he was over the moon with the lemon drizzle cake. i will always use sponge and cant wait until my next visit to uk and eat it myself!!! thankyou. Not what I would describe as lemon drizzle, but very lemony. Very moist and well within use by date. My friend was delighted to receive her surprise cake Ordered for my neighbours who had come to my aid in a time of need. They really enjoyed it as did their family Really loved this cake, very fresh, not too zingy and such a great taste! Will definitely order again I loved this cake. Could be a bit more lemony. Tasty,, fresh, not too sugary and does not taste eggy like a lot of shop bought cakes.
