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.
What if I'm not in?
No problem. You can choose a safe place for your delivery driver to leave your order, then collect it when you get home. It's really easy to do this, here's how: When placing your order DPD will send you a tracking link where you can add delivery instructions. DPD will also send you a delivery time window on the day so you'll know when to expect your brownie to arrive. Please note that our brownies have a very long shelf life and will keep fresh even if you have missed a delivery. If you haven't left instructions and miss a delivery, DPD will either automatically deliver the next day or take your item to a neaby shop where you can collect it.
Can I send cakes and brownies as a present to a friend?
You sure can! All our cakes and brownies will be sent beautifully packaged with no receipts. You can also choose a free gift message and a card to go with which will be handwritten by us.
