  • Delicious cake which looked great. Perfect for children's party and a similar price to higher-end shop-bought birthday cakes which are nowhere near as fresh or nice.

  • Amazing! Loved the way it looked and felt so festive - who doesn't love a hundreds and thousands rainbow?? My friend commented that she thought it would be sickly, but when she tried it she was so impressed with the vanilla flavour balance and how light it was. Another blinder from Sponge!!!

  • I was told that both children and adults enjoyed the look and taste of the Funfetti. Its appearance was a conversation point- everyone liked how fun and festive it looks with one of the kids saying the cake was full of rainbow bits. I think there's no higher compliment than to say all that remained was crumbs :-)

  • Well this beauty arrived as planned on 26th January 2024.. and it was quite hard to resist opening the box.. as it was a birthday cake, to me, from me! I couldn't wait for Saturday 27th January to come ( because of the cake.. not so great my birthday numbers! hence I didn't have candles, as there wasnt enough firemen to put on last minute standby.. to assist with the inferno of lit candles! lol. The cake, didn't stand a chance.. opened on Saturday and gone by Monday ( I didn't eat the whole cake (unfortunately) myself, I begrudgingly had help! Absolutely fantastic cake! Delicious, and moreish, goes well with a cup of tea or coffee.. and tastes so great!

  • Perfect cake and delivery was perfect too. It’s like an old fashioned birthday cake that everyone loves and so fluffy too. I would recommend! It tastes amazing!! I put some cake pops on it for my son’s 21st birthday cake as it’s his favourite and I was so pleased with it.

  • Fairly plain tasting the buttercream makes it. Looks really cool, it’s definitely a great size even for 10-20 people if it’s just small portions. There was only about 5 of us and I’ve munched about 3/4. I like cake, this was good. Age 30, I like cake, usually a Victoria sponge kinda guy.

More information

If you love a pop of colour at a party, then you can’t get much more colourful than this yummy Funfetti cake (Rainbow Cake is an exception to the rule). We love this Funfetti birthday cake, dotted with different colours throughout the cake layers. The flavour of the cake is vanilla with vanilla buttercream, so it’s a crowd-pleasing flavour all-round with a fun feeling throughout.

Also known as Confetti cakes, they date back to at least the 1950s in the United States of America. Betty Crocker put out an advertisement in 1956 in Life called a new “confetti angel food” cake mix, it evolved into the Funfetti cake in 1989 when the American Pillsbury Company introduced their “Funfetti” cake – a combination of fun and confetti which gained a huge popularity.

A Funfetti cake may look simple but it’s actually rather difficult to achieve. In America, sprinkles contain a lot of additives and colours, many of which are banned in the UK. So, a lot of our hundreds and thousands won’t do when creating one of these cakes. The problem with supermarket sprinkles in the UK is that many of them just disappear in the cake batter, the worst for these are the really tiny balls, and the sugar strands that are really pale in colour. Your best bet is trying to find the most vibrant and biggest sprinkles you can on the UK market, if you can find the thickest ones that’s great. Or, if you have the time and patience there are plenty of recipes online that show you how you can make your own sprinkles, however, there’s no guarantee these would work. And you also have to put a lot of sprinkles in the batter too, think of how much you would usually include in a recipe and then at least double i
