Christmas Cake

Christmas Cake

Christmas cake is the same traditional rich cake recipe used across our Wedding Cake and Rich Cake ranges, wrapped specifically in festive Christmas paper for the season rather than a plain box, and served without marzipan for that classic bare-fruit-cake finish. It's available in convenient pieces or a customizable full quantity, scaling just as easily for a family table as a full office order.

For corporate orders, we handle custom packaging built around your brand, so a simple cake becomes something that represents your company well. Our classic recipe includes brandy, in keeping with tradition. If you'd prefer a halal-friendly or alcohol-free version, let us know when you order — we can prepare it without alcohol on request. This is especially worth considering for corporate gifting, since a gift may go to someone whose preferences you don't know in advance.

How Far a Pack Goes

Using the same guide as our rich cake - roughly 5-6 pieces per 250g, 10-12 per 500g, and 20-25 per 1kg - useful for sizing a family gathering or an office gift list.

Christmas cake pieces come in a standard rectangular size of 2¼ x 1¼ x 1 inches. If you'd like a different size, that's available too — just choose from the same sizing options as our Wedding Cake.

  • Lead time

    A month's lead time is needed for international orders — plan ahead for the season so the cake can be baked, rested, and packed securely.

  • Shipping speed

    Roughly 2 weeks by sea cargo, or about a week by air freight if you need it sooner for festive dates.

  • Cost

    Shipping is borne by the customer and calculated based on the total weight of the cake being sent, so cost depends on the size and quantity you order.

    Share your delivery address and preferred shipping method when you order, and we'll confirm the cost and timeline before you place it.
