I feel totally Catfished by the cakes…

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

Ordered truffles for Christmas presents…

Ordered truffles for Christmas presents on the 1st December for delivery on the 22nd December. I was informed in the afternoon on 22nd December that the items I ordered were out of stock - which they weren’t when I ordered them. Clearly the earlier delivery dates got preferential treatment and they didn’t do adequate stock checks. Mistakes happen and thankfully they weren’t for something very important but even so I wouldn’t trust this company again.

Lovely small cakes

The wine didn’t arrive with the cakes, booked for Monday 22nd December, cakes arrived on Saturday, no sign of wine, second attempt was due 24 th December, did not arrive. Still waiting, so disappointed by that, as was a Christmas present.

Thank you for your review, and we’re very sorry for the concern caused when the wine didn’t arrive with the rest of your order. We can confirm that it was delivered shortly afterwards, and we sincerely apologise for the delay.

Unfortunately, during the busy Christmas period some deliveries did take longer than expected, but we completely understand how disappointing that must have been. We really hope you enjoyed the cakes in the meantime.

Cakes tasted the same,YUK

Cakes tasted the same,YUK! They were overly sweet no better than any shop bought cake. Extortionate price for tiny lumps of artificial sponge and the buttercream filling and topping was disgusting. What more can be added? A thoroughly disappointing experience. Only upside was that the delivery side was excellent

Expensive for small product

I feel the overall pricing was extreme for some very small tiny cakes that I received. I accept I should have read size specifications however 30 pounds for 9 cakes the size of my little finger is extreme.

Mainly delicious but smaller than expected

There was guidance as to the little cakes contents online, & they were mainly delicious but it would have helped if they had been individually labelled when sent out. We did a tasting of 9 & got a bit lost with our favourites & not preferred ones! Also they were smaller than we expected.

Afternoon tea selection ordered

Afternoon tea selection ordered, as a birthday gift.
I was very disappointed by the plastic egg box like presentation and the printed cardboard sleeve stating "Festive selection " Inappropriate for a birthday.
"The little cake company" response to me have been unhelpful, and dismissive.
Don't buy, it's an expensive price to pay for an inferior product.
The cakes themselves are no better than any shop bought cake, and the filling artificial tasting cream, the decorations on top spoiled by the packaging in transit.

Delicious cakes and excellent service

I ordered the mini cakes and the Alice in Wonderland cake stand for my granddaughter's 13th birthday. The company provided a friendly, personal touch from beginning to end. The cakes were delicious. Everyone loved them and the grandchildren were thrilled when they saw the full cake stand arrive on the table. Thank you!

Mediocre

The cakes arrived quickly and in good condition. We ordered 18 of them, and most were different flavours. We liked the Banoffee Pie a lot, but the rest were lackluster. The chocolate wasn't very chocolate-y. The hardened icing, used to keep toppings in place, was usually not a flavour that matched the cakes well. There was so little jam on the ones with jam that we couldn't taste it (especially disappointing on the Black Forest). Similarly, there was no sign or taste of dulce de leche. The cakes that were pink (raspberry and strawberry) tasted like an essence or something else chemical-ish was used. What was nice--the vegan cakes have as lovely a texture as the non-vegan cakes.

I’d initially posted a 3 * review but now changed it to 5*

I had initially posted a 3 star review after the cake stand I’d ordered wasn’t delivered, but I was contacted the next day and after I’d received the stand and the cakes were displayed on it all I can say is wow! I’d ordered them for my partners birthday and the reaction by everyone was amazing, the cakes and stand made a brilliant centre piece, they’re not cheap but well worth the money.
