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.

    My daughter really appreciated getting the cake delivered to her at university for birthday. She did say it was a little dry and said given it had to travel then this wasn’t surprising. As Sponge cakes state that the cakes can last up to 7 days then I was surprised to hear it was dry.

    Oh me oh my I ordered this cake having ordered the Easter cake and some birthday slices for family. This red velvet cake is the best ever velvet cake I’ve had. My son and family loved it. It went it no no time. Simply the best.

    Was just a bit dense and needed a bit more frosting on top layer
  • Abigail N - 31/10/2021
    Red Velvet for 16
    It was a little too dry for my liking, I’d have loved it to be a bit more moist. It was also too dark red, would have preferred a lighter shade of red velvet. The sweetness was just right as well as the presentation and packaging.
