FAQs

Are any of the cakes vegan, gluten free or dairy free?
Most of our cake is gluten free and we also have vegan products available. Please check the product ingredients in the shop. Vegan products will be marked with a (V) and gluten free with a (gf)
Where do you ship and do you do same day shipping?
We ship to mainland UK only as we want to make sure your cake arrives super quick and fresh. We only offer next day delivery (2 day delivery to Highlands) if the order has been placed before 2pm. We deliver Tuesday-Friday. You can also choose a future delivery date provided it falls between Tuesday-Friday.
Why do you freeze your cakes?
The main reason we do this is to protect the cake during transit and it ensures the cake arrives in one piece. Cake is very fragile. Freezing also preserves flavour and prolongs the shelf life without damaging the structure of cake. We can't tell the difference between a cake that's been frozen cake and one that's hasn't.
Can I pick up a whole cake from the cafe?
Sorry. We can no longer service selling to the public directly, but please feel free to use one of our distributors. We also have slices of cake available to buy on the counter in the cafe.
