How do I look?

Our Red Velvet Cake has a striking deep-red Sponge with chocolate notes. It is held together and topped with a velvety vanilla buttercream filling and sprinkled with a pretty red crumb.

STORAGE - Please store me in an air-tight container in a cosy spot - I don't like being kept in the fridge. Can be frozen for up to 6 months.

How do I arrive?

Our sponge cakes are packaged in secure and robust packaging. The inner box is wrapped around the cake to securely hold it in place so the sides and top do not get damaged in transit. The box also includes a handy cutting guide! It is then put in a strong cardboard outer box for extra protection so it will arrive to you safely.

    Daughter wanted red velvet cake for her lockdown birthday but it’s not easy to get a nice one outside of Costco and that was far to big for our needs. This was my first order from Sponge and the cake was lovely and a great success. Thoroughly enjoyed by everyone. Will definitely order again.

    As I was unable to see my son for his birthday I wanted to send a beautiful cake that he could share with his friends. Red velvet is his favourite and he assured me it was delicious! It arrived on time and in good condition and remained fresh until it was finished! I was able to add a personalised card and candle which helped to make his birthday feel special.

    My expectations were realised on receipt of this wonderful cake. It was truly amazing, having a cake delivered from such a distance it travelled very well - no damage at all. The cake was super-soft and luscious and not too sweet with a filling that was really lovely and just the right amount.
