Anniversaries are incredibly special occasions - a special day to celebrate love and commitment, reflect on time spent together, and create more special moments together. Having the perfect cake to celebrate together (or with family and friends) can make the occasion all the more special.
But when you’ve celebrated a number of anniversaries (not to mention other special occasions over the years), how do you pick the perfect cake? Favourites are overdone or expected. This one off occasion deserves a one off cake.
Most people know that each anniversary year is associated with a milestone theme, which is usually used to inspire a present. But we’ve taken inspiration from these themes to help you pick the perfect anniversary cake for your special day.
10 Years: Tin - Cookies and Cream
Tin doesn’t incite excitement in the same way as some of the other themes - unless of course, it’s a cookie tin. Reminiscent of the tastes of childhood, our cookies and cream cake is a rich and fun cake stuffed with your favourite cookie flavours like choc fudge and shortbread. Take a trip down memory lane to celebrate your 10 years with the cookie tin!
20 Years: China - Chocolate Hazelnut Meringue
China or porcelain are traditional gifts for 20 year anniversaries. The beautiful and delicate nature of this material is perfectly represented in our Chocolate Hazelnut Meringue - beautiful to look at and even better to taste, it is a light and delicate cake adorned with strawberries and chocolate curls, reminiscent of the delicate designs on fine china. (As a bonus, this cake is also gluten free).
25 Years: Silver - Jam & Chantilly Cream
Silver is the ultimate classic piece. Elegant, simple and suits everyone - just like a classic sponge cake. When you think of classic cakes this is no doubt the first one that comes to mind. Perfect for any occasion and any taste, its simple elegance will be admired by everyone - just like beautiful silver jewellery.
30 Years: Pearl - Croquembouche
Small, light, beautiful - pearls are the height of sophistication, the perfect gift for 30 years together. For dinner you can serve oysters, but for dessert you should serve a croquembouche. A tower of light but creamy profiteroles encased in delicately blown sugar, what are they if not pearls of melt–in-your-mouth cake?
40 Years: Ruby - Raspberry White Chocolate
The ruby red of our raspberry glazed cake will light the fire of love inside you - even after 40 years. Sweet, creamy, decadent, our raspberry white chocolate is a cake that is impossible not to love. For the ruby anniversary, a vibrant red cake is the only way to go.
50 Years: Gold - Chocolate Honeycomb
When you’ve made it this long, your relationship must be as good as gold. This rare achievement is worth a big celebration with one of our most popular cakes - the chocolate honeycomb. This cake showcases the golden relationship you’ve built with a golden crunchy honeycomb and a mix of flavours that will captivate everyone in the room (just like your love).
