Chocolate Cake Delivery London and across the UK
Why Customers Choose My Baker for Chocolate Cake Delivery
My Baker fulfils London orders from its flagship bakery in Hendon, North West London. Beyond London, and occasionally within it, we work with a carefully selected network of vetted, trusted local baking partners across the UK. Every chocolate cake is made fresh to order and never frozen, so it arrives at its best. With more than 23,000 cakes delivered, we know how to get a chocolate cake to your door in perfect condition.
How to Choose the Right Chocolate Cake
Styles in the Chocolate Range
The chocolate collection covers everything from a classic chocolate sponge with rich chocolate buttercream to more elaborate designs. Drip cakes with chocolate ganache, Oreo-topped cakes, berry and chocolate combinations, and tall layered designs are all available. If you're ordering for a birthday, the collection also includes number cakes and letter cakes in chocolate.
Sizing and Servings
A 6-inch round cake serves 8 to 16 people. An 8-inch serves 12 to 28, and a 10-inch serves 20 to 42. Chocolate cakes are rich, so you can afford to go slightly smaller per head than with a lighter sponge. Our product pages include serving guidance for every cake.
Dietary Options for Chocolate Cakes
Many of our chocolate cakes can be made vegan, made without gluten, made without dairy, made without eggs, made without nuts, or halal. Just select your preference on the product page from the choices available. Our bakers work in kitchens where allergens are present; if you have a severe allergy triggered by traces of allergens, sadly we are not able to cater for you safely and will decline the order.
Lead Times and the 3pm Cut-Off
Most chocolate cakes on our website can be delivered within 24 to 48 hours. Next-day delivery across London and the UK is generally available when baker capacity allows; order by 3pm to qualify. Next-day orders carry a £10 delivery premium. For a fully custom design, we recommend submitting your brief via Design My Cake at least a week ahead.
Frequently Asked Questions About Chocolate Cake Delivery
Can I get a chocolate cake delivered the next day in London and other parts of the UK?
Yes. Next-day chocolate cake delivery is available across most London postcodes and many wider UK postcodes for orders placed on our website before 3pm. Place your order and we'll handle the rest. Concerned about receiving your cake on time? Give us a call on 020 3239 4399 and we'll confirm.
What types of chocolate cake do you offer?
The collection includes classic chocolate sponge, chocolate drip cakes with ganache, Oreo-topped chocolate cakes, berry and chocolate combinations, chocolate Biscoff designs, and layered tall cakes. Designs range from simple and elegant to bold and celebration-ready. All are handmade to order at our Hendon bakery or by our vetted UK partners.
Can I get a vegan or made-without-gluten chocolate cake?
Yes. Many of our chocolate cakes can be made vegan (replacing dairy and eggs with plant-based alternatives) or made without gluten (using gluten free flour blends instead of wheat flour). A vegan chocolate cake uses cocoa, plant milks, and vegetable oils to achieve the same deep flavour. Select your dietary requirements on the product page from the choices available.
Can I personalise a chocolate cake or have one designed from scratch?
Every cake in this collection can carry a personalised message (a name, age, or short note). We're also happy to change colour schemes at no extra cost; leave us a note in the cart. For a fully custom chocolate design, share your brief via Design My Cake and we'll come back to you with a quote. Custom cakes typically need a week's notice.
How should I store a chocolate cake after delivery?
Keep your chocolate cake in a cool, dry spot away from direct sunlight. Chocolate buttercream and ganache can soften in warm rooms, so if you're not serving it straight away, a cool room or the fridge works well. Take it out 30 to 60 minutes before serving so the sponge returns to room temperature.
Where do you deliver outside of London?
