The cakes are absolutely delicious. Could not resist purchasing the chocolate caramel and the fresh cream doughnuts going back home to Gauteng. It's definitely better than Woolies and reasonable costs.

They have efficient service and the staff is super friendly from the security to the cashier's, everyone is super nice and always ready to serve you with the best service. The taste of their cakes is out of this world 🙂I've never tasted a good cake like theirs ,the texture of the cream is amazing😍. The cakes are not too sweet and the Sponge is very moist and soft 😍.
