What’s an amazing idea to send to someone
Cakes was beautiful
Came well packaged not damaged at all and did what it said on the front of the box “if this made you smile my job is done”
Fantastic! Such a great idea and my mom loved it. Very unique idea!
This is the note I had from my friend I sent the cake to.
“Gosh you are the sweetest. Thank you so much for the cake. It came at the right time. So having a cup of tea and cake now to calm myself down. Xx 😘”
I think it’s fair to say that - you are doing, what you’re doing, very well indeed!
Lovely surprise and great idea but cake needs more filling. There is alot if cake anc little filling so taste is boring and slightly dry. Please add more filling less cake.

Delivered on time. The packaging was lovely and the cakes were fresh and delicious. Made a difficult occasion all the more easy to get through for my mum. It was like we were giving her a hug in cake form. She really loved and appreciated the sentiment.
A good idea but needs a makeover.
Main issues:
Grease seaps through the wrapper and stains the box.
The cakes themselves look very ameturish (inconsistent sizes).
Stickers are just stuck anywhere on the cakes
No best before date written on the box where there is a printed section for it!
To be honest, I feel cheated out of £30 for what my recipient received!

Lovely surprise to come home to. A wonderful idea beautifully packaged with a lovely message
easy to use website, good selection of cards and cakes for all occasions. delivered when requested and recipient was very pleased and surprised. Have used this company before and always been happy with service.
Well packaged, arrived on time and most importantly cakes were yummy 😋
Delivered on time, it was easy to order and the recipients loved it and the choices of cake flavours
Was a quick turn around and a perfect gift for my wife, who was so happy and surprised to receive it!
Thanks
Easy to order, kept informed of progress
Delivered on time and friend loved the cake
Don't be tempted to double up to 4 slices of cake unless you know the recipient will be in to accept the delivery. It doesn't go through the letterbox and they won't deliver. Took 3 attempts for my daughter to get hers
A lovely and different way to celebrate my partners birthday 🎂 The cake was absolutely delicious and we both really enjoyed it.Such a lovely surprise and a great experience!
The cake / card arrived exactly as expected. My bestest ever friend got a lovely surprise from me even though we are now seperated by over 100 miles. The web form for the order was so easy to fill in, the delivery options were great, can't fault this company.
The ordering process was easy, The cake absolutely beautifully soft sponge and tasted delicious. My mum was very pleased with this gift. Thank you

Sent this to my parents, beautiful packaging fantastic cake, they loved it and so quick on delivery. Will defo be using again
I ordered from here after seeing an advert popping up on my social media. I thought it was a lovely alternative to the usual flowers I would send. I ordered for my best friend who’s currently undergoing treatment as a pick me up and she absolutely loved her treats! Delivery was extremely prompt as promised and she said the cakes were delicious. Thank you so much. Would highly recommend and I will definitely order from you again!
