Cakes for a 40th birthday

A 40th often means a dinner, so we lean towards cakes that slice well and taste as good as they look.

Dark and rich

Chocolate Ganache Cake is chocolate fudge sponge under chocolate curls and fresh berries. Cherry Noir layers dark chocolate sponge with cream and a deep cherry filling under a glossy red top.

Something lighter

White Chocolate Berry Cake is wrapped in white chocolate shards and piled with berries. The Provence Cake stands tall and white, crowned with lilac piped kisses.

Add the age

Put the name and 40 in the message box on any cake's page and we'll pipe it on, or let the Loaded Number Cake spell it out in chocolate sponge.

Keeping it fresh

Cakes with fresh cream or fruit go in the fridge and are best within 2 days. Our guide on how to store a cake has the rest.

How far ahead to order

Each cake shows its earliest day before it goes in your basket. Order by 2pm and that day counts. Collect free from Brockley, SE4, or have it delivered across South East London. For a design of your own, send a bespoke enquiry at least two weeks ahead.

Questions about 40th birthday cakes

Can you put a name and age on the cake?

Yes. Type the name and age in the message box on the cake's page and we'll pipe it on. For the age in cake, the Loaded Number Cake cuts the sponge into the numbers.

What size cake do I need?

Each cake shows how many it serves before you choose, from a 4 inch bento for two or three up to a 10 inch for around 30. Our cake size guide compares every size side by side.

How much notice do you need?

Cupcakes and small bakes need 2 days, most celebration cakes need 3, and tiered and showpiece cakes need at least 2 weeks. Order by 2pm and that day counts. Each cake shows its earliest day before it goes in your basket.

Need one sooner? See what we can make soonest, or ring us on 020 8087 4785.

Do you deliver?

Yes, across South East London and out to Bromley, Beckenham and Chislehurst. The basket shows the fee for your postcode before you pay, and our delivery page lists every area we cover.

Can you make something free from an allergen?

We can leave an ingredient out, but we can't promise a bake is free from it. Our kitchen uses several allergens, so traces are always possible. Each product lists what it contains and may contain. If you have a severe allergy, ring us on 020 8087 4785 before you order.
