I reached out to Velvet Lane for a baby shower cake based on an image of classic Pooh characters! They did such an amazing job and recreating it and the cake tasted amazing. All guests were super impressed with the cake and the details and it was amazing that the characters were hand painted and the trees were piped! The team was super communicative, answered all my questions and were incredibly collaborative and open. 100 percent would get cakes from here again!

The cake looked beautiful but tasted horribly, strong butter taste and dry

This is a cute cafe specializing in cakes and cupcakes. The staff was friendly and I was served promptly. The cafe was very cute and would be great to hang out with a friend. I bought the Pistachio cupcake. The taste was good and flavourful, however I prefer slightly less icing on my cupcakes. Overall, this appears to be pretty affordable for a cake shops and I would be open to trying their mid size cakes in the future.

We are so happy we chose Velvet Lane Cakes to create our wedding cake. Our cake was not only stunning, but it was delicious! They exceeded our expectations and created a cake that we will never forget.

I recently bought 2 cakes - equally bad.
TOO MUCH frosting, literally had to scrape it off. The sponge, although moist, tasteless!

The red velvet had way too much frosting which made it look AHMAZING but tasted pretty bad!

In response to below reply from owner:
I tried 2 cakes..one with the extra icing (red velvet) and the other was hazelnut cake. I would say hazelnut was probably worse..no flavor in sponge or icing and too much icing although very Instagrammable and moist sponge but horrible excessive icing and tales overall.
It was like you get an amazing looking cake but the moment you eat it, you are embarrassed you brought such a cheap tasting cake to a party ??‍♀️

Absolutely love the cake and the service provided by velvet lane cakes. I ordered a custom cake with Cats theme for a kid's birthday party and it was such a hit in my party. I have always gone back to the same store every single time I need a cake.

It was my friend’s birthday today, and I want to personally thank the server Jenny for being sweet and corporative throughout. The cake was super amazing and tasty, and so aesthetic.
Loved every bit of it.

I’ve ordered two cakes from here. First one was fantastic, no issues. Second one I came in to order a cake for my best friends 30th birthday. The day of pick up the cake wasn’t ready. They forgot to input it into their system and never made it despite emailing back and forth on it and having paid in full. They did provide another cake (not a flavour she is a fan of) and eventually refunded me, but I’d be wary of this.

Cupcakes are delicious but a little too sweet. Also kind of expensive. I had a latte too and it was strong and watery. If I had to come back for something it would be the cupcakes- MAYBE…
