I only got half my order

I only got half my order. The rest has now arrived. The cakes are even smaller than I expected! They do look nice though I haven't eaten them yet!

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!

Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We’re so pleased to hear that your granddaughter enjoyed her little cakes and that the Alice in Wonderland cake stand helped make her 13th birthday extra special. It’s lovely to know everyone enjoyed them and that the full stand made such a great impression. Thank you again for choosing Little Cake Co. for such a special occasion - we truly appreciate it!

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.

Nothing special

Bought 9 for boyfriends birthday and they were unfortunately left outside overnight. Never heard royal mail know. Cakes were tiny and average on taste. Rather a hard top on most of them which is hard for us now to eat.
Okay but pricey.

Not at all what I expected

Not at all what I expected . Sad to say I could have bought similar for less than a third of the price in the supermarket . Nice to be able to choose what variety you’d like in each box . As a cake maker they’re really not that great . In a nutshell pretty little cakes in a plastic blister box .

Would I use again.

The cakes went as a thank you gift … my friends were delighted with them, the selection process was spot on and it came with ingredient sheets … so useful for those with allergies. Would I use again? Oh yes!

Lovely little cakes

Lovely little cakes - so much nicer than one big one when you're just a small group. The hamper was lovely, and it felt like great value for money. Would recommend.

I feel completely ripped off by these…

I feel completely ripped off by these although ease of ordering and delivery was good .
I ordered 18 for my Son's 20th Birthday instead of a usual cake in the belief they would be a great alternative. The packaging is cheap plastic as if they have come from a supermarket and they are so tiny that the recommended 3 per adult it is just plain wrong.
I now have to go out and purchase a proper cake which for the £40 i have spent would buy me a freshly baked 8"
Cake .Honestly i feel so didappointed

Process was efficient but let down by flavour

The order process and arranging delivery was very straightforward. The pecan with dulce de leche was good. However, we weren’t impressed with the flavour of some of the cakes we ordered (chocolate, cookies & cream and birthday cake). They tasted very artificial and not as good as home baked cakes.

I sent these as a gift. They absolutely loved them. Just enough of a sweet hit without being sickly. Beautifully crafted and packaged. Highly recommended
