dont think just buy

Had GAO’s cakes a few times now, and they’ve never disappointed. They always look stunning, and the texture is so airy and light. I was especially happy to let my non-Asian friends try this delicacy. The pandan flavour was such a unique and delicious pairing with the strawberry fruit. I feel very lucky to have been one of the giveaway winners, and I’m already looking forward to buying another one in the near future!

Reliable, Delicious, Beautiful

Have ordered from Gao Cambridge since 2024. Incredible Asian flavours with beautiful cake designs, delivered straight to your home. I’ve had the matcha, jasmine and black sesame flavours - they are all delicious (and my party guests agree too!). Attention to detail is great and lots of effort put into personalising the cake to your request.

Gorgeous and delicious cake

April did an amazing job of creating a beautifully made cake in the shape of a Husky. My partner adores huskies, so when he received his cake, he was just over the moon. We both loved the taste of the cake too. The flavors were blended amazingly well, and the cake was so light and fluffy. April is probably the best cake maker in all of Cambridge! I also really appreciated the delivery service.

Absolutely delightful! The rose and lychee chiffon cake was light, fragrant, and perfectly balanced—subtle floral notes with a gentle sweetness. Truly a treat.

Amazingly delicious cake!

Our favourite cake in Cambridge! The rose and lychee cake is light, airy and has a delicate balance of rose flavour. The lychees add texture and sweetness but overall it's not too sweet. Decoration is exquisite. Communication is excellent, rapid, responsive and personal. Would highly recommend

The most beautiful cake

The most beautiful cake - delivered exactly how I had imagined! Deep, intense matcha flavour and all so light and delicious. My daughter was as delighted with it as I was. This was my first chiffon cake from Gao Cambridge and will definitely not be my last! I am already planning what to have next time…

Milk free birthday cake!

I am so happy to be able to enjoy Asian cakes again having finally found a baker that can accommodate people with an intolerance to lactose.

The milk free birthday cake was beautifully presented and tasted delicious and light with fresh mango. It was enjoyed by everyone.

Highly recommended!
