Delicious cakes

Excellent selection of flavours to choose from and very tasty. They are expensive (better part of £30 in delivery) but the cakes were well packaged, arrived on time and in the same condition I assume they were posted in. I would definitely buy the Little Cake Company again! They were moist, nicely decorated and full of flavour. Delicious 😋.

looked gorgeous

The cakes looked gorgeous. Didn't taste them as they were a gift. Will have to ask the recipient if they tasted as good as they looked.
Update - the recipient says they were delicious!!

Love Them

I've used this company four times now (once just for myself as I love them).

Always delivered on the date requested, always fresh and tasty. Packaging is perfect and nothing has ever arrived damaged. Instructions included to keep the in the fridge until an hour (I think) before you want them to keep them as fresh as possible.

I've seen comments about the size of the cakes, I wasn't expecting any bigger, imagine the cakes you get with an afternoon tea, these are perfect.

It may be time to order more.....

Bought as a gift

Bought as a gift. The recipients said that they arrived in perfect condition, and were absolutely delicious! Good variety and reasonable price.

Purchased the deluxe bouquet

Purchased the deluxe bouquet. Very small cakes. Photo of bouquet of cakes very misleading. Floral peony bouquet was just plain white. Boring. Very expensive for a very underwhelming gift. Sadly will never order again.

I had ordered for them to be delivered…

I had ordered for them to be delivered on the 21st they came over 2 weeks early. They were very dry and nothing special that I thought a small businesses would give. Sorry cannot recommend. And very over priced for dry cake

Exquisite little mouthfuls of sheer delight

The Little Cake Company makes the most exquisite tasting cakes which are a little more than a couple of bites. I have ordered these twice recently as a desert when entertaining, but they would also be perfect for a gift or afternoon tea. Each tray of cakes is well packaged, easily removed and the fact you can mix and match your flavours ensures something to look forward to. I cannot recommend enough.

Cakes looked great but I wanted to collect

The cakes looked great - but they were a present for hospital staff so didn't get to try them myself.
Only issue was I requested to collect from store location but they were sent out by post instead - was slightly inconvenient as it meant I didn't have them in time and had to make a special journey to the hospital to drop them off the following day - but they did look good

Thank you for your review and for your kind words about the cakes - we’re really pleased to hear you were happy with them.

We’re sincerely sorry for the mistake with your order collection. Due to an internal system error on our side, the order was dispatched for delivery instead of being held for collection as you had requested. We completely understand how frustrating this must have been, and we are incredibly sorry for the oversight.

Please be assured that we are already reviewing and improving our internal processes to ensure this doesn’t happen again in the future.

If you have any further questions, feedback, or would like to discuss this further, we’d be more than happy to do so at hello@littlecakes.co.uk - please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us directly.

Delivered on time

Delivered on time. The cakes were a good size but I found them very dry and not spongy. The filling was too sweet. Overall disappointed

I feel totally Catfished by the cakes sizing. Your imagery give the impression the cakes are cupcake size not 1/2 that size.
Never again would I use your site

Ordered truffles for Christmas presents…

Ordered truffles for Christmas presents on the 1st December for delivery on the 22nd December. I was informed in the afternoon on 22nd December that the items I ordered were out of stock - which they weren’t when I ordered them. Clearly the earlier delivery dates got preferential treatment and they didn’t do adequate stock checks. Mistakes happen and thankfully they weren’t for something very important but even so I wouldn’t trust this company again.

Lovely small cakes

The wine didn’t arrive with the cakes, booked for Monday 22nd December, cakes arrived on Saturday, no sign of wine, second attempt was due 24 th December, did not arrive. Still waiting, so disappointed by that, as was a Christmas present.

Thank you for your review, and we’re very sorry for the concern caused when the wine didn’t arrive with the rest of your order. We can confirm that it was delivered shortly afterwards, and we sincerely apologise for the delay.

Unfortunately, during the busy Christmas period some deliveries did take longer than expected, but we completely understand how disappointing that must have been. We really hope you enjoyed the cakes in the meantime.

If you have any further questions or if there’s anything else we can help with, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us directly at hello@littlecake.co.uk - we’re always happy to help.

Cakes tasted the same,YUK

Cakes tasted the same,YUK! They were overly sweet no better than any shop bought cake. Extortionate price for tiny lumps of artificial sponge and the buttercream filling and topping was disgusting. What more can be added? A thoroughly disappointing experience. Only upside was that the delivery side was excellent

Expensive for small product

I feel the overall pricing was extreme for some very small tiny cakes that I received. I accept I should have read size specifications however 30 pounds for 9 cakes the size of my little finger is extreme.

Mainly delicious but smaller than expected

There was guidance as to the little cakes contents online, & they were mainly delicious but it would have helped if they had been individually labelled when sent out. We did a tasting of 9 & got a bit lost with our favourites & not preferred ones! Also they were smaller than we expected.
