All our cakes are handmade using quality ingredients and delivered straight to your door – making London delivery of freshly baked cakes easy, fast and delicious.

The Perfect Vanilla Sponge Cake

Our vanilla cakes begin with the fluffiest vanilla sponge cake recipe, baked until golden and soft. It’s everything a great sponge should be – tender, light and full of comforting vanilla flavour.

For those who love to bake at home, our cakes are inspired by our popular vanilla cake recipe UK – rich with real vanilla and made with care. But if you want to skip the mixing and cleaning, just let us handle dessert while you focus on celebrating.
