The Vintage Heart Cake: A Trendy Favourite

The vintage heart cake has quickly become one of the most Instagrammable designs, and for good reason. With its chic pastel colours, piped borders and dreamy buttercream messages, it’s a nostalgic nod to the 90s and early 2000s that feels totally on trend.

Choose your sponge – from chocolate to vanilla – and your colour scheme, from soft pastels to bold brights. Our expert decorators will hand-pipe your message with love, giving your heart shaped cake that vintage bakery charm.

Whether you're gifting a best friend, surprising your partner or celebrating a milestone, the vintage heart cake is as beautiful as it is delicious.

Perfect for Every Occasion: Birthdays, Weddings & More

Heart cakes aren't just for Valentine’s Day. Our designs suit a variety of occasions:

Birthdays: Add a cute message to your red velvet heart cake and surprise your favourite person with a treat they’ll remember.

Engagements & Weddings: Looking for a unique alternative to traditional wedding tiers? A heart shaped wedding cake is a romantic and playful way to mark the occasion. Our wedding heart cakes can be customised with initials, flowers or colours to match your theme.

Anniversaries & Date Nights: Small but show-stopping, our heart cakes make the perfect centrepiece for an intimate celebration.

Looking for ideas? We’ve got plenty of heart shaped cake ideas, from minimalist and modern to full-on retro.
