Chocolate Pistachio kunafa cupcake one of the best cakes I’ve ever eaten

Chocolate Pistachio kunafa cupcake, I hope they keep it on the menu after Eid. Will definitely return and order again.

We visited Lola’s cupcakes in Bluewater and took home
A piece of Red velvet sliced cake
Carrot cupcake
Chocolate Pistachio kunafa cupcake
Lemon mini cupcake
Banoffee mini cupcake
Salted caramel mini cupcake
Hazelnut mini cupcake

All were moist, tasted fresh. Red velvet and lemon were exceptionally good however not as good as the pistachio.

Terrible!

Firstly the cost is absolutely extortionate! But as it was Mother’s Day it was a treat! However, the overly expensive cupcakes were far from a treat when the taste was more insulting than price!
Certainly not freshly baked. The “flavours” were flavourless and all just tasted like gone off buttercream. Certainly wouldn’t waste your money!
Was given a free piece of brownie for signing up there and then, even that tasted burnt!

Hello Jennifer,

Thank you for getting in touch to let us know about your recent order.

I am sorry the cake didn't taste as expected and seemed flavourless. We do make all our orders fresh to order and it would be good to understand how the icing tasted off so I will email you shortly.

We will also log your feedback about the free brownie tasting burnt.

I hope to hear from you soon.

Best wishes,

Alice

Hello Oluwakemi,

Thank you for letting us know about your cookies and cream cake.

I am so sorry it tasted a bit dry.

We do recommend making sure our cakes are kept outside of the fridge for 3 hours before serving, this does allow it soften up and taste it's best.

I will email you in a bit to discuss this more.

Best wishes,

Alice

Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback.

I am very sorry for the disappointment experienced on this occasion with your order of the Cookies & Cream Cake.

I can assure you all items are baked and prepared fresh for the date of delivery chosen. Cakes are kept chilled until collection/delivery. We do recommend the cake is allowed a few hours at room temperature before serving to allow the sponge and icing to soften and to ensure it is consumed at its best.

I will of course note your feedback for our teams to review and I will be in touch with you via email shortly.

Kind regards,

Hi Teshoma,

Thank you for being a member of our loyalty scheme Love Club and I can see you redeemed the free cupcake on your birthday.

The birthday small cake offer ended on 31.12.25. I am sorry for any disappointment caused but I am pleased you were able to get a regular size cupcake to enjoy as a birthday treat from Lola's.

If you have any further questions about Love Club please reach out to us at hello@lolascupcakes.com

Messed our cake up

Messed our cake up. Have a cupcake voucher in return for the Inconvenience. Couldn’t even refund the cake for messing it up.

Hello Rajpreet,

Thank you for taking your time to share your feedback with us.

I'm sorry to hear that your cake did not arrive in the condition that you had hoped.

I can see that you contacted us via email and sent us a picture showing that one of the berries on your cake had fallen off and that the icing underneath where the berry was placed was cracked.

While this berry was seen to be replacable to that position to return the cake to perfect condition we understand that it can be concerning to receive the cake with a decoration like this having been displaced in transport and we do apologise for this.

I have been sure to highlight the issue in our log to the bakery and transport team to review further and understand more as to how we can improve on this experience for the future.

If you would like to discuss your feedback with our team further, we encourage you to get back in touch with us via our previous email thread so we can assist you further.

Kind regards,

Perfect Moana Birthday Cake – Looked & Tasted Amazing!

We ordered a Moana birthday cake from Lola’s Cupcakes for our little girl’s birthday and it was absolutely amazing! It looked beautiful and tasted just as good as it looked — so fresh and delicious.

The whole process was really easy from start to finish. Ordering online was simple, and collection from our local Lola’s store was smooth and hassle-free.

It was perfect for her special day and everyone commented on how lovely the cake was. We’ll definitely be ordering again. Highly recommend!

The birthday cake was genuinely amazing

The birthday cake was genuinely fantastic . The sponge was soft and light, the cream perfectly balanced, and the flavours came together without being overly sweet. Honestly, it disappeared far too quickly, which is probably the best review a cake can get.
