Black Forest Cake

Four layers of chocolate sponge, white chocolate cream and sweet cherries, finished in chocolate shavings and ganache. No fondant, no alcohol: everyone at the table will recognise it, and the white chocolate will still surprise them.

This product contains: Eggs, Milk, Wheat, and Gluten

While our team takes all necessary steps to minimise the risk of cross-contamination, traces may occur due to our kitchen being small and without ‘exclusive’ production areas for all of our different recipes.

We get asked these a lot

Layer Cake Questions

Please read our FAQs page for an even more exhaustive list.

How many people will each size feed?

When choosing the size of cake, it's hard to say exactly how many people it will feed, but as a general guideline:

  • 15cm - provides 12-15 servings
  • 20cm - provides 20-25 servings
  • 25cm - provides 30-35 servings
Can you write something on the cake?

Yes, if you leave a note we can write something short e.g. "Happy Birthday Sam"

No Added Dairy/Gluten?

Due to recent NZ food labelling updates, I cannot claim any of my items are 'gluten-free' or 'dairy-free', only that I have not added any gluten or dairy containing ingredients.

While some of our products are made without allergen-containing ingredients, they are produced in a shared kitchen where allergens are present.

Therefore, we cannot guarantee they are safe for individuals with severe allergies.

Can I change something about the cake? e.g. decorations or ingredients

Get in touch with me if you have concerns about a specific item in a cake and we can see if we can accomodate.

We don't make custom cakes so cannot make new recipes for customers, only potentially omit ingredients or make minor changes.

Can you make me a custom cake?

Apologies but I don't make custom cakes, so cannot create something for you that's not listed on the menu.

Is it ok if we need to store it?

Yes, all of our cakes and desserts can be safely stored in the packaging we give you for 1-3 days without any change in taste or texture.

If you anticipate storing for more than this, it's best to freeze in an airtight container, however note that some of our decorations may crack from being frozen due to the expansion effect of moisture freezing.

Please let them come to room temperature before eating for the best experience.

Most found it fresh and well-balanced. However, one customer reported receiving a "very, very dry" cake, suggesting inconsistency in freshness.

Irresistible Black Forest Cake: Cream, Cherries, and Pure Indulgence

The Black Forest cake was truly impressive. This four-layered cake was beautifully moist, with a generous filling of cream and cherries between each layer. The icing was decadently rich, perfectly complementing the chocolate sponge. The entire cake was quickly demolished, a testament to its delicious balance of flavors and textures.

A delightful treat that lives up to the classic Black Forest reputation!

What a cutie

I thought this was a very cute looking cake with the little mushrooms on top - the cake itself was moist and I enjoyed the cherry flavour
