Excellent service from the North Greenwich stall. Professional and efficient servers, highly commended. The mini cupcakes were a hit at work, too. Just wish they delivered!

Delicious Gluten Free Cupcakes!

Beautiful cake but way too sweet

I was happy with the service and the cake was looking amazing but the icing and filling was extremely sweet so I was disappointed in the same time. ☹️

Hello,
Thank you for taking the time to leave your review.
I am very sorry to hear that you found your cake was sadly sweeter than expected.
I can see on our system you ordered a 7" Sweet Shop Rainbow Cake.
This cake is made of many layers of sponge, each filled with a layer of buttercream icing, and the cake is finally decorated with buttercream icing and assorted sweets. This does make this one of our sweetest cakes in our range, as it has a high ratio of buttercream icing which is the sweetest type of icing we have available.
I can recommend the cakes in our Lower Sugar Range for those who may prefer cakes that are less sweet. We also offer many cakes that are iced with cream cheese or chocolate ganache, which provide a less sweet, more balanced flavour than our buttercream cakes.
As we have not received correspondence from you regarding this matter, I will be getting in touch shortly via email so that we can discuss this further.
I look forward to speaking with you,
Greta

Excellent service and cakes

When I placed my order there was a glitch on the system and I was unsure whether the order had been placed or not. On the day of collection I received the confirmation, but I also got a phone call to tell me I may not have received email confirmation which was great. When I got to the store pick up was quick and easy. And of course the cup cakes were delicious

Don't go to Lola's North Greenwich if…

Don't go to Lola's North Greenwich if it's your birthday. That's the lesson I learned today. The two women on duty at the store were surly and unhelpful. They didn't want to tell us anything about which cupcake was what flavour or indeed do anything to assist. Their default response to most things was a pursing of the lips and an unwilling few words, dragged out as if by forceps. When it came to handing over our box, they said they didn't have a bag – with the result that we had to put the box in the backpack and the cupcakes got squashed (we have a photo). Very unpleasant experience, not because the cakes were bad but the servers couldn't be bothered to do their job.

Hi Rashmee,

Thank you for your feedback.

I'm so sorry to hear about your experience.

I would like to assure you this is not a regular occurrence with us and does not reflect our usual standards in anyway.

Please can you get in touch with us via email on hello@lolascupcakes.co.uk so we can discuss this further and try to resolve this as soon as possible for you?

I look forward to hearing from you.

Best wishes,

They Left My Cake Unrefrigerated for over 8 hours!

In the past Lola's send you an order confirmation, and then on the day of your delivery or collection they sent a notification email and a text message to your mobile phone to let you know that your order was ready for delivery/collection.
I had opted to collect my Tropical Posh Cake order. And intended to pick it up around 11am when I'd be free. But on the day by 2 pm I still hadn't received any email or text message to confirm my order was ready to pick up. So I contacted them, being a Saturday there was a queue online. Anyway eventually I got through and they said the cake was ready. It was a hot day - last Saturday, When I got there after 5pm, I expected the staff to go and get my cake from the fridge - as had happened at other locations, but here the cake was just sitting there in the heat. And this had been since 9am!
I was incredulous, I asked the woman, in this heat, why didn't you put the cake in the fridge, and she said, we don't have a fridge here.
And the woman had the cheek to tell me to immediately put the cake in the fridge when I got home. It took me over 2.5 hours to get home, and by then cake sides & decoration had "melted & smudged" (for want of better words) in the box - if the cake had been kept in the fridge as it should have been - until I arrived, it would have easily been able to withstand the 2.5 hours journey to my fridge. It would still have been firm. But instead it was "dishevelled."
The cake was for the next day's mother's day celebration. I took it out of the fridge and let it stand at room temperature for 3 hours - before the celebrant cut the dishevelled cake.
The cake had a funny grainy texture.

When a tub of ice-cream melts and then you re-freeze it. Next time you eat the ice-cream it has a funny texture. And you can't enjoy it.

Similar thing with the cake - it had a funny texture.

Even on Lola's website - it says their cakes can be enjoyed for up to 48 hours when refrigerated. But they thought it was okay to leave my cake out in last Saturdays heat for over 8 hours. A cake with dairy mascarpone, compote, ganache frosting /decorations.

Hi,

Thank you for your feedback.

I'm so sorry to hear this happened with your order.

I would like to assure you this is not a regular occurrence with us and does not reflect our usual standards.

Any stores that do not have a fridge, only accept collection during colder months and as such we were not expecting such high temperatures during that day.
We have now stopped all collections for stores that do not have fridges, to avoid this issue as we move on into warmer months.

I do completely understand you were disappointed and as such I will be in touch shortly to discuss this further with you.

I look forward to hearing from you soon,

Nikky

Amazing cupcakes

Collected some cupcakes that I had ordered online for a birthday.
Everything was straight forward and I was able to pick up the cupcakes with no problems.

The cupcakes tasted amazing! We don’t have Lola’s cupcakes up north in Yorkshire so it was a great first experience
