We heard you loud and clear. You missed our Lemon Meringue Sponge Cake.

You pleaded. You petitioned. Some of you even threatened to start a sponge-based protest (we respect that level of commitment).

So, guess what? It’s BACK!

And this isn’t just any old Lemon Meringue Cake this is a zesty, sky-high, melt-in-your-mouth masterpiece, fluffy lemon sponge, luscious citrus curd, and a cloud of toasted meringue so dreamy, it should come with a fanfare.

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.

Loved it. Purchased as a Brithday cake and went down a treat. My wife thought it was fantastic, very fresh and very, very tasty! How do it put it ... I DESTROYED IT. This is what my friend responded when he received it him and his dad loved it. Great loved by all the family I have tried several "flavours", coffee, chocolate etc, and this also did exactly what it said on the box. It was tangy, sweet, a bit of crunch, wonderful. This cake was divine! Just the right balance of sweet meringue and tart lemon-there was a fight over the last slice!! Lovely cake we had this a couple of times now A gift to a close friend needing cheering-up. She 'phoned me twice to express her huge enjoyment of this cake, which proved too large in depth to fit any of her tins. She said she had never tasted anything so delicious. I have bought several sponges from this company and have always been happy and ordered different ones and have never been disappointed Excellent. All went in five minutes, so none left over for later! I ordered this cake for an Aunt’s birthday that is housebound. She was thrilled to receive it and said it was delicious! Lemon meringue wow I love citrous flavours and this lemon meringue cake was extremely yummy. Loved the meringue flavour Told it was very yummy! Love it Cake looked really tempting and the flavour didn’t let it down. Zingy lemon made it a light refreshing cake and wanting another slice. Moist cake with a lovely sharp hint of lemon curd to balance the sweetness of the crunchy meringue pieces which were both on top and mixed into the butter icing . Yummy Lovely cake, full of flavour, come boxed up really well too Wonderful loved by all who had a slice will order again for the third time This cake was ordered twice in 2 weeks, absolutely delicious, love the meringue bits in the buttercream
