Minecraft Cake:
The presentation was amazing! The flavours of the cake were delicious, perfectly balanced and moist. The cake topper with the minecraft character in my sons name was a bonus! Will be ordering again and recommending.

Dragon Ball-Z chocolate butter cream cake.
The Cake People delivered an absolutely amazing cake for my partner’s birthday! The chocolate buttercream was perfectly balanced—so good that my husband specifically asked me to save the last piece just for him after the guests were thoroughly satisfied!
The artistry was equally impressive—so meticulous and beautiful that he actually hesitated to cut into it 😎
I will be back for the other important occasions as well.

Thank you so much for this wonderful review! A Dragon Ball Z cake so beautiful he hesitated to cut it, and a chocolate buttercream so good a secret slice had to be reserved — that's honestly the best kind of feedback we could receive! We'd love to be part of the next special occasion. 🎂
Fantastic cake and design/ordering process
Ordered a vintage 30th cake for my wife through the website, very simple process in choosing the design and decorations for the cake which made it really easy to order the perfect personalized cake for her.
The cake was also delicious and everyone enjoyed it on the day.
Would definitely recommend and will be using them again.

Taste was good, jam was nice. Cake was dry & not worth anywhere near the price paid value wise. Thanks
