Birthday Cake

Birthday Cake
I bought one of my clients the 'gift of cake' in a tin with candles for his birthday, it arrived on time and he was very pleased with it. I always use Gift of Cake, the cakes taste amazing and they are always delivered on time.

Delicious experience

Living in the US we wanted to send a birthday cake to our daughter who lives in the UK hence Gift of Cake. Our whole experience was wonderful! Ordering was easy and customer service kept in touch with us throughout the whole process. The cake that was received was beautiful and looked just like the pictures promised. We were also told that it taste delicious! I will definitely use Gift of Cake again without a doubt!

A BRILLIANT RED VELVET CAKE!!!

The best red velvet cake I have ever tasted. It was the first time I've ordered a cake to be delivered online, and it didn't disappoint at all. The best experience and service. The cake was creamy and very tasty. It really made my boyfriend's birthday a great surprise. We will definitely order from here again!

Wrong card but delicious cake

Ordered a carrot cake with the card 'Home Sweet Home' but it arrived with the card 'Best Dad Ever'. Fortunately I opened and checked the card before I gave it to my birthday husband (as we're moving to a new place too). I called the company and the guy immediately responded with sending a replacement (card & cake) the next day.
The cake was so delicious, my husband loved it. Excellent delivery with clear notifications. The wrong card was the shame (We had the cake a day before his birthday so I can still give another surprise for him the next day with the correct card).

I would love to order from them again- but will send to my address and check everything before giving the cake to someone else...

Happy

Everything from start to finish was smooth. I ordered the cake on a Friday afternoon to be delivered next day and it arrived next day with no issues. Cake was well made, my partner and I thought it tasted delicious. Thank you 😊

I recently ordered a cake online from… The Gift of Cake

I recently ordered a cake online from The Gift of Cake in UK for my loved one who lives there. I live in Pakistan, so I was a bit hesitant at first, but I'm so glad I went with them. The cake was delivered on time, and it was even more beautiful than I expected. The presentation was flawless.

I ordered the Divine Red Velvet Cake, My loved one was absolutely thrilled with the cake, and they said it was the best they've ever had. I'm so grateful to The Gift of Cake for making my loved one's special day even more special. I highly recommend their cakes to anyone looking for a delicious and beautiful gift for a loved one in the UK.

Poor service

I ordered this cake as I thought it was such a wonderful idea and wanted to surprise my daughter .The reviews were excellent so I thought nothing could go wrong. Unfortunately she received the wrong order.The cake wasn’t in a tin as ordered and the gift card was to someone else. It totally ruined the surprise. I know things go wrong but you should really pay more attention to sending the correct order to the right person. You did send another one but the suprise element was ruined

Lovely chocolate vegan cake

Lovely chocolate vegan cake. You can't tell it doesn't contain dairy - so moist and fudgy. I ordered it to where we were staying on holiday, as a surprise for my friend and it arrived on time and in great condition.

My only constructive feedback was I tried ringing/messaging the day before to confirm the postcode was OK for delivery and didn't hear back, however the delivery did go through with no issues.

I liked the email updates too, regarding dispatch and the making of the cake.
