Birthday gift for a dear friend

Yes, I recommend this

The recipient(female) was delighted with the gift and it was delivered exactly on the day as requested. I thought the gift was good value and was an excellent purchase as we couldn’t meet up due to Covid restrictions. Thank you

Balloon Birthday Cake Gift

Yes, I recommend this

Lovely packaging for this gift. All the items were very nice inside the box, but not quite like the picture given e.g. the balloon was plain silver and the Swiss chocolates were different. The cake was very nice, but I would have liked a slightly longer shelf life on it. Overall though it was a very nice gift!

Very disappointed

No, I don't recommend this

I ordered this cake for my husbands 75th birthday tea party with his grandchildren , The cake was nearlyout of date and arrived battered and the icing had blue marks on it. The balloon was plain silver, the candles were rose gold and came with a plain box of chocolates . Very poor for the price .

Birthday Cale

No, I don't recommend this

I bought this for my sons birthday and was very disappointed. It arrived for his birthday on 26th June with a best before date of only 28th June. The balloon was plain silver, the chocolates were a small box of mixed chocolates and the candles were plain gold. When you see a description you expect to get what is advertised and not something different.

Very Disappointed

No, I don't recommend this

I bought this cake gift for my son's birthday and chose M&S as I assumed it would be a quality product. Very wrong. The cake had a short best before date and was dry and had to be thrown away. The balloon was plain sliver, not with stars and was very small, 6.5" across. The chocolates were not the happy birthday swiss milk neapolitans, but just a small box of M&S swiss chocolates full of nuts. The candles were plain gold. The only item which was as shown in the online photo was the cake. This gift set is very poor value for money and I wouldn't recommend.

Extremely pleased

Yes, I recommend this

I bought this for my husbands birthday. I payed extra for a named day delivery but as i am only going out very occasionally it was worth it. I have not given 5 stars as the balloon was a plain silver and not colourful as in the picture. A minor detail but it added to the look of what i thought i was going to receive.The cake also freezes well and lost no quality when defrosted.

Absolute delicious cake

Yes, I recommend this

I don’t normally leave many reviews but this cake was so delicious that I feel I have to! It was so moist and tasty I’m waiting for the next excuse I have to order one! It lasted very well too as it was quite large so we finished it over a number of days. Also arrived right on time. Thank you M&S!

Poor best before date

No, I don't recommend this

Would have given this hamper 5 stars if it had a longer next before date. Arranged delivery for Sat 23rd May for my father's 93rd birthday.. When opened on his birthday realised cake had best before date of 25th May. When you buy directly on store these cakes usually have a good date on them. I ordered to arrive few days before to ensure it arrived in time. Large cake to serve 20 so unfortunately a large portion had to be thrown away as buttercream discoloured before could all be eaten. I note that short best before dates are also mentioned in other reviews so would not order cake online again or recommend to friends. Shame as nice looking cake along with nice chocolates and a small balloon and I thought would be ideal to send as couldn't be there on the day due to lockdown.

Cake Gift

No, I don't recommend this

Disappointed. The cake looked as though the icing had started to run and the sell by date was the next day which I thought was very poor. It obviously hadn’t been checked and the balloon was far too small.

I'm disappointed

No, I don't recommend this

I bought two of these cakes to give to my mums sheltered housing unit as we can not see her during the current times to celebrate with her. The cakes arrived today and in fairness they were well packaged but the sell by date was for tomorrow 10/06/20 which is useless to me as her birthday is on Friday. I ordered them a day or so early thinking I would have a bit of leeway with the date and to be safe again with current delivery delays etc. The Balloon was not printed like the picture they were both just plain silver and one was partially deflated. Now I'm stuck with two cakes that cost £50 total and I'll still have to try to find something for her birthday on Friday.

Disappointed

Yes, I recommend this

Although the cake was lovely and good value I was advised to order quite early. I needed it for my daughters birthday on 3//6/20 so asked for delivery on 30/5/20 I was very disappointed that when she received it the use by date was 1/6/20 to me that is not acceptable. it has somewhat spoilt the celebrations .
