Best birthday cake to order online?

[CharlotteTuesday]

It's my husband's 50th birthday in a month and I'm now thinking about where I could order an amazing cake!

Not looking to have one made for me bespoke or anything but wanting something special.

Any recommendations?

If you want an amazing cake, definitely order a bespoke one - ask for local recommendations (e.g. on a local Facebook group).

I love Lola’s

@FourEyesGood don't want to order locally as per op

So it's got to be something nice that can be couriered

@SantaHat ooh thanks. I'll have a look

something from www.bettys.co.uk/
One of their fruitcakes or a heap of fondant fancies ( bearing no resemblance to the Mr Kilpings offerings of the same name)

We brought an ice cream cake for my BIL’s 50th recently - it was fab!

Thanks so much - these suggestions are fab

Cake box do gorgeous fresh cream cakes- with fresh fruit or Oreos, Fererro Rochers or anything. The sponge is so light and its just delicious. No fondant or American (sickly) buttercream

IGP is legit and very reliable (for me, at least). I ordered a customized cake for my friend’s birthday, asked for a “50” theme, and they nailed it. Plus, their cake quality is really good — not overly sweet, just nicely balanced. You should check their birthday cakes section.

M&S online. Can’t beat them and excellent price.
