OUR CAKE FLAVOURS
Start with a sweeter cake flavour such as the raspberry/white chocolate and honeycomb or pecan/maple and follow up with a zesty/citrus flavour such as the lemon or lime/coconut milk/passionfruit. Finish on the two chocolates.
Some notes on the flavours;
1) Raspberry, white chocolate and honeycomb
no problem to add some raspberry conserve here if you feel there is not enough raspberry coming true.I can't put any more raspberry in the cake, because it will get to wet and loose its structure. Texture is the homemade honeycomb

2)Lemon
cake is just straight lemon.
3) Pecan and Maple
really popular - again crunchy pieces are the pecan praline.
4) Lime, Coconut Milk and Passion Fruit
a tricky balance to get right. No problem to have more passion fruit curd but don't want it to overpower thesubtle coconut milk.

5) Chocolate, Guinness, salted caramel
It is rich, but not as heavy like a fudge chocolate cake. Salted caramel helps cut through the heavy cake and offers a sweetness also to the bitter Guinness.

6) Rhubarb & Ginger
There is a rhubarb compote also in this cake to increase the rhubarb as the icing cannot take anymore. The rose geranium can also be omitted if you prefer.

7) Elderflower, Gooseberry and Vanilla
This is a vanilla cake with elderflowers syrup and gooseberry curd buttercream. Its a little tart from the gooseberries and similar to the lemon for this.

8) Carrot, Walnut & Orange
This cake is a lovely combination of spices and earthy/savoury carrot with sweet yet sour orange buttercream. I love it as it is.

9) Purple Velvet
With Blackberry, Elderberry and Cream Cheese - This flavour is currently out of season and lacks flavour. The blackberries are shop bought and there is no elderberry in it either. I would recommend tasting this cake flavour in August/September again as its actually really good.

10) Lavender, Almond and Honeycomb
An autumn flavour. The lavender is in both the cake and icing. This tends to be a bit of a love hate flavour. Some people love and others hate it. if you do decide to have it, I'd recommend it being a smaller flavour.

11) Fruit cake
To be honest this is not a popular flavour. Most people offer portions of fruit cake or have it as a smaller tier. Fruit cake can't be covered with buttercream either but no problem on fondant icing. It would also have an almond paste layer.

12) Chocolate Biscuit
We include 4 types of chocolate in our biscuit cake and feel it has the right amount of biscuit to chocolate.
13) Lemon, Fennel & Ginger
A nice alternation to lemon with the liqourice fennel and ginger.
14) Spiced Orange
One of my favourites and especially at Christmas with the spiced cardamon and cinnamon with zesty orange.
15) Chestnut, Praline & Caramel
Another nice seasonal flavour to have at Christmas, with the savoury chestnut cake being a lovely contrast to the sweet buttercream.

no problem
