Amazing cake I didn’t expect such an amazing taste

5 stars

Amazing cake I didn’t expect such an amazing taste really. Yes the cake is dry but it’s not a negative thing all parts (frosting cake chocolate) go really well with each other. Bought twice will be visiting the store just to get this again. Please don’t discontinue this.

Mouth watering

5 stars

Best velvet cake I’ve tasted. Different to others and must say it’s actually more tastier than m&s velvet. Well done Tesco. Add a bit of cream and it’s liek heaven.

Flavour and texture disaster

1 stars

Unfortunately I have to agree with some of the other reviewers - the cake was dry and the flavour combination of cream cheese flavour frosting, hard chocolate filling and dry red coloured cake was dreadful. Sadly a terrible fail this time Tesco.

Delicious !

5 stars

This was one of the nicest cakes I have ever eaten. It was moist and very tasty, the frosting was just right, not too sweet. I will definitely buy this again

Sort it out tesco... Chocolate really!

1 stars

Who puts chocolate in a red velvet cake!!!..sort it out tesco it was vile!

Delicious

5 stars

I had never tried this cake before and was very pleasantly surprised. I found it delicious, so much so, that I bought another in my next shop. My dad can't eat anything too chocolatey but still likes a sweet treat and for him this was perfect.

Hard and stale

1 stars

Despite asking for a long sell by date or to give a substitution, this came on my home delivery two days off sell by date. Consequently the sponge was stale and the topping rock hard. Stop palming off short sell by cakes to those who are vulnerable and unable to shop in store please Tesco.

not right at all

1 stars

It's just not right who puts chocolate icing in a red velvet cake it should be only cream cheese frosting but definetly not the one you're currently using it was dry and awful doesn't come close to some of the red velvet cakes from other supermarkets

Tasty and Sweet

5 stars

the best velvet cake in the supermarket

Truly dry flavourless cake

1 stars

Dreadful Very poor representation of what should have been a moist raspberry flavoured sponge was dry and tasteless. All Tesco have done is add red food colouring. The cake was dry tasteless and a poor representation of a (what should be) a luscious luxurious cake. Awful. Don't buy as a dessert for your special Valentines day meal.
