All our cakes are suitable for vegetarians. We can also make gluten free sponge and fruit cakes , and dairy free cakes.

Our fruit cakes do not contain nuts. They are made with butter and include cherries sultanas raisins and currants. as well as sherry and rum.

Sponge cakes can be plain or chocolate sponge. The cakes are layered with buttercream.  Carrot cake and lemon cake is also available.

Sponge cakes usually keep for up to two weeks once they are covered with icing.

Portion sizes

The portion sizes quoted are 2” x 1” and are a  suitable size for sponge cakes. We have included all the tiers in the numbers quoted.

If you are having a fruit cake you may wish to give the more usual finger size piece, which is 1” x 1”. This means you will have more portions and may be able to keep the top tier if you wish.

Samples of cake are available on request.

Extra portions

An iced, but undecorated cake in fruit or sponge cake can be provided. This can be used for extra portions without the added expense of an extra fully decorated tier.

Ordering

Please allow at least 8 weeks notice or longer if sugar flowers are required. However we can only accommodate a limited number of cake orders each week, so please order in good time to avoid disappointment.
