Absolutely gorgeous little bites. Perfect for watching the calories. My favourites were the birthday specials, or maybe the vanilla pearls, or could it be the victoria sponge bites? Then again...... See more

No response no delivery
I had a big delivery I was looking forward too and the parcel was never delivered. I have tried numerous ways of contacting Mariellas to help me find out what happened. I’ve had no response and now have lost money and left without any explanation. For the price of a small pack I’d appreciate some advice.

Tasty morsels
Starting on my keto journey I still needed my sweet fix. These hit the spot. Bite size cakes that are full of flavour. I have only tried the lemon drizzle which were very moist, and the black forest which had the nice flavour of cherry in them so far, and without exceeding my calorie count they are a guilt free treat. I will definitely be buying more of these keto cakes when these ones have run out. I find these value for money as well compared to some other online retailers. 10/10

We’re delighted to hear that our keto-friendly cakes have been the perfect sweet fix on your journey, and that you enjoyed both the lemon drizzle and black forest flavours. Knowing they’ve met your expectations in flavour and texture truly means a lot to us. Thank you so much!
Delicious and well worth the money!
I ordered these to go alongside my calorie deficit as I still would like a treat some evenings, and i am glad I gave them a go!
They are very well portioned and such good value for how much you receive, they were also so moist and delicious I had to stop myself eating every pack!! The victoria sponge slice and carrot cake pearls are my favourite so far, so moist and tasty and fill my sweet treat void 😄 I will definitely be back for more!!

Quite nice but far too small
Very disappointed with the size of the contents of the box. They tasted ok though. But wouldn't order again, far too expensive.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that you found the size disappointing. For your convenience, the weights of our cakes are clearly shown on our website to help you make an informed choice. We appreciate your comments and hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future.
Great!
Great customer service and great tasting pearls. The 1 star reviews of those moaning about the size of the pearls just shows how uneducated they are, when it’s 35-40 calories per pearl they are obviously not going to be ginormous. I tend to eat the whole pack and it leaves me feeling like I’ve really indulged but only eaten 180-225 cals! High in fibre and low in fats. Had a bit of an issue with what I received in my order but Mandy quickly sorted it out and was very pleasant. Would definitely order again and I can’t wait to try the other flavours.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear you’re enjoying the Pearls. We’re also glad our team was able to quickly resolve the issue with your order and that you felt well taken care of. Your support means a lot, and we can’t wait for you to try the other flavours next time!
Also, per 100g our products are typically 60% less fat, 40% less calories and 30% less sugar than other leading brands - weight for weight, they are lower. We opt to provide our bakes in the sizes/packs they are, to allow for portion control should this be of interest. The sizes/weights of the Pearls are readily available on our website, on each product page under the 'nutritional values' tab.
Thank you so much!
I was skeptical at first.. but!!!
I was skeptical at first, whether something claiming to be so low in calorie sugars and fats could taste any good, but being on a calorie restricted diet and having a mad sweet tooth I needed to try something to stop those pesky cravings and I’m glad I did! These taste amazing, they don’t taste “healthy” in the slightest and feels like I’ve had a good slice of cake to keep me going without the guilt and calories!

Teeny slices and disgusting
I ordered some cakes and pearls for my son a diabetic. First shock..they are NOT a cake but a slice for £3! He bit into it abd spat it out...the two dogs sniffed at the floor and walked away, they wouldn't eat them either. I tasted a bit and was a disgusting, rubbery, claggy taste which was hard to get rid of. I had better hopes for the pearls..nope like a tasteless rubbery bath sponge with a horrid fake tasting miniscule cheese frosting daub in the middle. Now I bake and yip use Stevia etc and can honestly say you wouldn't know the difference, but these were overpriced, disgusting rubbery, stodgey excuses for cake! I bought seeing 5 star reviews, fool me, should've read the one and two star ones I'm not overly fussy and as I said, bake myself but can honestly say I'd be ashamed to put my name to these cakes which after spending £20, went into the bin because dogs, foxes ( who love sweet things) and even pigeons wouldn't touch them and I had to brush up the mess. Honestly are these 5star reviews real? So disappointed, if bought in a store I'd return for a refund.

Disappointingly
I was excited to try these, especially as some of them are keto friendly.They were quite frankly disappointing. They are extremely overpriced and nothing out of the ordinary. I was so disappointed in the quality and the size. I won't be wasting my money and buying anymore.
