Lemon Drizzle Cake

A Sponge favourite, this moist lemon drizzle cake is bursting with flavour! The soft lemon-flavoured sponge is filled with delightfully tangy lemon buttercream infused with real lemon juice and zesty lemon oil.

Also available in gluten free

The sponge is infused with natural lemon oil and made with eggs to create a moist and fluffy lemon cake. Natural lemon oil is also used in the buttercream and white chocolate is drizzled on top.

  • A beautiful cake with a lovely lemon flavour. The cake stayed fresh for longer than expected but cannot say how long in total as it was consumed before any change in quality or taste. We will definitely purchase from here again and look forward to trying some of the other delicious flavours.

  • Ordered a lemon drizzle cake from Sponge for my daughter’s 1st birthday — I wanted something simple that I could decorate myself at home, and it was perfect. The cake was fresh, soft, and full of flavour, with just the right balance of zest and sweetness. It held up brilliantly too — still tasted lovely almost five days after opening! Fit for purpose, and honestly, just a really lovely cake. Would happily order again.
