visibly wet cake, obviously not stored correctly.

No, I don't recommend this

The cake was wet when collected, visible water drops all over it. The checkout staff got a manager who said “I think it will be alright” I was advised to lightly dab it with kitchen roll. The cake was for that evening, so I couldn’t have it replaced, as she said it would take too long to re order. I won’t use M&S for a cake again. Felt let down as I had no options and none were offered. On reflection I feel that the staff should have let me take a replacement cake from the shop floor at the very least.

Great quality

Yes, I recommend this

This cake tasted great and was easy to decorate with a cake topper and cake balls. I only dropped a star because after I ordered I spotted the equivalent product at a considerably lower price at another supermarket . However, I’m sure this one tasted better so I was pleased with my purchase.

Yes, I recommend this

My 70th birthday. I bought the naked cake so I could personalise it myself. It was a lovely cake and tasted gorgeous. I did think however it was a little smaller than I thought, over priced but was lovely and fresh

Absolutely delicious

Yes, I recommend this

Probably the best cake we have ever tasted. Brought for my daughter’s 16th birthday, we added cake toppers to match the theme and hey presto, it looks like a cake makers but less costly.

We’ve purchased this cake for the past three years for my daughters birthday, each time we decorate it in different themes. The kids always love this cake, and the parents want to know where I got it from. Absolutely recommend, never had an issues ordered the night before and leave on the kitchen unit for the following day.

Perfect base cake to make your own

Yes, I recommend this

Perfect base cake to make your own. We chose this baked cake because everyone always leaves the fondant icing and not everyone likes jam which is traditionally in many cakes. It was a great size and tasted lovely. We decorated it ourselves for our Mothers 80th Birthday. Highly recommend. Buying this cake saved us a lot of stress and time. Perfect!

Cake for a special birthday

Yes, I recommend this

Lovely cake, stayed fresh for ages. Thought it was going to be too small but it did over 20 slices of a decent size esp as it is tall and filling. Able to put added icing on the cake to personalise for the birthday
