Highly recommended

The ordering process was very easy. I have ordered before, and this certainly won't be the last time. There is a wide range of flavours to choose from, and they are all amazing. It's much better than ordering one large cake. Delivery is super fast too!

The vegan cakes are delicious

My daughter has just had a baby and was feeling very tired and weary. I sent her some your cakes as a Red Cross parcel and she felt much better! Thank you.

Cakes arrived as described

Cakes arrived as described, well packaged and was adored by my Husband. Purchased 2 packs made up of my choice for him, he has nearly finished the 2nd pack. Cakes are just right size to pop into the mouth, allowing the flavour to sooth the tastebuds with its delicious flavour and texture. Recommend this company's cakes! Only gripe, deliverman knocked my door then ran off within 15 seconds before I could open the door, so purchase was received following day.

So pleased to have come across this company

So pleased to have come across this company for an 80th birthday afternoon tea for my husband and family. The cakes arrived on time and were well packaged. Everyone commented on how delicious the cakes were and everyone had the recommended 2 to 3 portions. The only difficulty with ordering was choosing the cakes!! Would wholeheartedly recommend The Little Cake Company for any special occasion.

Bought as a gift

Bought as a gift. The recipient said that the cakes were delicious and had very delicate flavours, but I was slightly embarrassed giving them as they were so small (yes, I know the dimensions were as described, but who gets their tape measure out to check?) and the plastic bubble container looked cheap and nasty. Perhaps rebrand as the Microscopic Cake Co?

Delicious cakes

Excellent selection of flavours to choose from and very tasty. They are expensive (better part of £30 in delivery) but the cakes were well packaged, arrived on time and in the same condition I assume they were posted in. I would definitely buy the Little Cake Company again! They were moist, nicely decorated and full of flavour. Delicious 😋.

looked gorgeous

The cakes looked gorgeous. Didn't taste them as they were a gift. Will have to ask the recipient if they tasted as good as they looked.
Update - the recipient says they were delicious!!

Love Them

I've used this company four times now (once just for myself as I love them).

Always delivered on the date requested, always fresh and tasty. Packaging is perfect and nothing has ever arrived damaged. Instructions included to keep the in the fridge until an hour (I think) before you want them to keep them as fresh as possible.

I've seen comments about the size of the cakes, I wasn't expecting any bigger, imagine the cakes you get with an afternoon tea, these are perfect.

It may be time to order more.....

Purchased the deluxe bouquet

Purchased the deluxe bouquet. Very small cakes. Photo of bouquet of cakes very misleading. Floral peony bouquet was just plain white. Boring. Very expensive for a very underwhelming gift. Sadly will never order again.

I had ordered for them to be delivered…

I had ordered for them to be delivered on the 21st they came over 2 weeks early. They were very dry and nothing special that I thought a small businesses would give. Sorry cannot recommend. And very over priced for dry cake

Exquisite little mouthfuls of sheer delight

The Little Cake Company makes the most exquisite tasting cakes which are a little more than a couple of bites. I have ordered these twice recently as a desert when entertaining, but they would also be perfect for a gift or afternoon tea. Each tray of cakes is well packaged, easily removed and the fact you can mix and match your flavours ensures something to look forward to. I cannot recommend enough.

Cakes looked great but I wanted to collect

The cakes looked great - but they were a present for hospital staff so didn't get to try them myself.
Only issue was I requested to collect from store location but they were sent out by post instead - was slightly inconvenient as it meant I didn't have them in time and had to make a special journey to the hospital to drop them off the following day - but they did look good

Thank you for your review and for your kind words about the cakes - we’re really pleased to hear you were happy with them.

We’re sincerely sorry for the mistake with your order collection. Due to an internal system error on our side, the order was dispatched for delivery instead of being held for collection as you had requested. We completely understand how frustrating this must have been, and we are incredibly sorry for the oversight.

Please be assured that we are already reviewing and improving our internal processes to ensure this doesn’t happen again in the future.

If you have any further questions, feedback, or would like to discuss this further, we’d be more than happy to do so at hello@littlecakes.co.uk - please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us directly.

Delivered on time

Delivered on time. The cakes were a good size but I found them very dry and not spongy. The filling was too sweet. Overall disappointed

I feel totally Catfished by the cakes sizing. Your imagery give the impression the cakes are cupcake size not 1/2 that size.
Never again would I use your site
