Questions
Can you add their name or age?
Yes, you can add a piped message to most cakes for £5, such as their name or "Happy 40th". Just click Add a piped message on the cake page.
Can you make a cake in the shape of their age?
Yes. Our Number Cake comes as a single, double or triple digit, in vanilla or chocolate, decorated with buttercream, fruit and macarons. Single digits start at £95.
What size cake do we need?
As a rough guide, a 6" cake serves 12 to 18, an 8" serves 20 to 30, a 10" serves 36 to 42 and a 12" serves 50 to 60. Sizes vary by design, and each cake page shows the sizes it comes in.

Most cakes need 2 days' notice, and you choose your date at checkout. You're welcome to order weeks ahead.
