Indulge in the irresistible charm of our bestselling Red Velvet Cakes, freshly baked to order in London and delivered straight to your door. Known for its iconic deep red hue, delicate crumb and irresistible cream cheese frosting, this crowd-pleasing cake is a true American classic - made famous in the UK by The Hummingbird Bakery’s original Red Velvet recipe.

Whether you’re celebrating a birthday, surprising someone special or simply treating yourself, our Red Velvet Cake is guaranteed to impress. Made from scratch using only the finest ingredients, it’s the perfect centrepiece for any occasion.

Why Choose The Hummingbird Bakery?

Our cake has long been the most loved treat in our collection - and for good reason. Every bite is a perfect balance of light cocoa, tangy buttermilk and velvety smooth cream cheese frosting.

What makes our recipe so iconic is the unique combination of flavour and texture. The sponge is soft, moist and richly red thanks to natural cocoa and a hint of vanilla, while the frosting delivers just the right amount of sweetness and creaminess to complement the cake’s subtle chocolate undertones.

We bake our treats fresh to order at our bakeries in London. Classic baking done the right way. Each cake is made using traditional American baking methods that we’ve perfected over two decades.

Available in Sizes for Every Celebration

Our iconic cake comes in a range of sizes to suit your needs.

Sheet Cakes: With two layers of sponge, perfect for larger gatherings or office celebrations.
