My yorkie loves the iced woofins!

I've been getting the Iced Woofins for months (I've bought a few of the big ones and a few of the mini trios) and my yorkie Elsie loves them! She has also shared some of them before with her furry aunties and they all go down a treat! We've had the ones that have pink icing, brown icing and most recently the Halloween woofin too!

I bought a birthday cake for my pooches…

I bought a birthday cake for my pooches 1st birthday and it's very small. So small it's hard to refer to it as I cake more like cupcake or an amazing biscuit. Obviously I didn't look at the measurements because I'm a bloke and can only assume the photos were taken by the hubble space telescope. My dog saw me open the box it came in and hasn't spoken to me all week. I'm going to have to make it up to him by getting lots of treats for the party and maybe a goofy bow tie, just be aware if you're buying a cake and there is going to be more than 1 dog there, you may need a few or as I'm now wishing, order multiple cupcakes.

Hi Michael, we're sorry to hear our cakes weren't the size you were hoping for. I hope your dog is now speaking to you! :) We have a variety of treat options in different sizes. Thanks for your review.

Fantastic celebration treats for dogs

I bought a cake and a pack of lovely treats for my girl’s first birthday. Everything was delivered very fast and looked super yummy - a real birthday treat for a dog !
My girl started eating the cake as soon as she sniffed it and enjoyed the treats throughout her day.
What a lovely idea.
I will be coming back for sure for more celebration treats :-)

One happy ESA and handler/owner 💖

I purchased a trio set of treatos from Horse of the Year Show 2022. My assistance dog (ESA) absolutely loves them! Will certainly be ordering so much real soon.

Lovely Cake ideas but...

Lovely Cake ideas, biscuits and such
In my opinion the cakes should be softer with creams filling. The frosted flavour top of the cake was hard so we could not put a candle in, also the woofins and cake appeared to be quite dry and hard.
(I say these to give a feedback and maybe there can be some improvements)

Birthday Cake for Our Willow!

I ordered a birthday cake for my Girlfriend's Mum's Working Cocker Spaniel for it's eleventh birthday. The cake was delivered very quickly, (it arrived after Willow's birthday but that was my fault for forgetting to order it earlier), around three working days and the quality of the cake and the written icing on top looked amazing! Willow absolutely loved her cake and she was given a little bit everyday until she finished it! I would highly recommend The Barking Bakery and I think I'll buy our Willow a small cupcake next year!
