Dry and tasteless
Dry and tasteless, I do not recommend
Tasteless and over priced
Brought for my daughters birthday - 23 years old so thought it looked and sounded ideal. Totally tasteless, hard frosting, dated for a further week and a half but dry, hard cake. One layer chocolate cake, didn't taste of anything. Overpriced. Would not recommend at all.
Decent taste, more like 10 portions not 18
The appearance of this cake is really nice, looks professionally made. the reason this cake was purchased was because we were looking at local cake makers with similar drip cakes and it was out of our price range - this seemed to look similar and was significantly cheaper. I see a few people have commented that this is a dry cake, mine was quite moist and stayed good for about a week but this is because the day I got it home I removed it from the cardboard packaging and put it straight into an airtight cake box. I'm assuming that is why it stayed fresh for so long. Regarding portions, you will not get 18 slices out of this. We got around 10 decent size slices, if you're having a celebration with more than 10 guests then you will need a bigger cake or two of these. I think I would buy this cake again for a special occasion as it was very tasty, it is quite sweet so if you don't like things too sweet then this probably isn't for you.
Icing tastes of just sugar
The cake wasn't dry (unlike what other reviews suggested), but the icing is too sweet and I really like sweet things. Doesn't taste like cookies and cream at all and doesn't taste like coffee (like what other reviews suggested), but I almost wish it did since I like coffee, cause the cake just tastes of sugar. Don't get me wrong, its still nice and edible, but if it was another colour then I wouldn't even be able to guess the flavour, as it literally just tastes like any other cheap generic cake and not a cookie and cream flavoured one.
Avoid
I never write a review but had to for.This cake was bought for my daughters 16th and although once decorated with a certain type of cookie it looked great that was as good as it got . The cake was inedible it tasted so strange but i am unable to describe the taste as it's nothing like any cake i have tasted before. Thankfully at this time when no one's allowed to visit it saved us the embarrassment of serving this to anyone and them politely forcing themselves to eat it.
Won't be lazy next year ...
In my defence, I bought this for my daughter's birthday over the internet whilst shielding during C19. The packaging says it serves 18 - liar, liar, pants on fire - the most it will serve is 12 with very small portions (which works out a pound for a very small slice). It was small. It looks like a nice three tiered cake in photos on the website, but it's the dwarf equivalent. It tasted like Cookies and Cream, but was a bit dry so livened up the kid's with ice cream and the adults with Baileys. Won't be a next time.
