The Classic Cake Box | Staff Review
The Classic Cake Box from The Cake Tasting Club is a monthly subscription box for cake lovers - each month lucky subscribers are treated to a delightful selection of four freshly baked cakes, brownies or biscuits, plus a complimentary tea or coffee sachet to wash it down! This week, client services manager and cake lover, Phillippa, shares her thoughts on The Classic Cake Box and what you can expect.
Phillippa's Classic Cake Box - featuring gift-wrapping, confetti and Taylors tea...
My first impression was I could not believe how compact the box was and it fitted through the letterbox! I was so excited to open it and see what treats were in store for me and I was not disappointed.
I was presented with a beautifully wrapped parcel complete with a ‘The Cake Testing Club’ sticker, a Taylors White Hibiscus & Peach tea bag plus some confetti - it was like opening a thoughtful birthday present.
As I delved into my box, the thoughtful touches continued as I found a lovely handwritten note, a card detailing the bakes of the month and a recipe card for one of the bakes- all this before the real treats!
The bakes themselves sounded amazing, and I immediately popped the kettle on ready settle down with a cup of tea to have with the Salted Caramel Pretzel Brownie! I had half an hour to spare before having a full house, and it was the perfect way to relax after a day in the office. The brownie was amazing - gooey, chocolatey and the perfect amount of sweet and salty flavour from the caramel and pretzel combination - who knew that would work?!
I continued to enjoy the bakes throughout the next week and even shared the yummy raspberry & white chocolate cake and blueberry brownie with my husband - reluctantly, as he’s not a massive cake lover and I hated the thought of them being wasted, but he loved them too, enquiring where his box was! That's his birthday present sorted...

Phillippa's card detailing this month's tasty bakes...
The lemon elderflower and white chocolate shortbread was the perfect treat to offer out to the in-laws when they popped in for a cup of tea over the weekend- four biscuits for four people! Everyone enjoyed and asked if I had baked them myself, I could not take the credit this time, but now I have the recipe I certainly can do next time!
The Classic Cake Box is just £15.00 - great value if you ask me! Each cake comes with an expiry date and most of the bakes - if you can resist for that long - have at least a week’s use by date on them, meaning you really can enjoy this over an extended period. Considering I would happily spend money in a tea shop catching up with one of the girls enjoying just one piece of cake and a cup of tea I felt like it was reasonably priced.
Overall I loved this box - from beginning to end it felt like a special treat with all the thoughtful touches, and the cakes were delicious. I LOVE cake and to have tasty homemade bakes delivered to my door for me to enjoy was something dreams are made of! The tea also made a great addition, and I look forward to seeing what arrives in my next box. I can’t wait to share this with my other cake-loving friends. All in all, a perfect way to take half an hour and relax with a cup of tea and cake - a match made in heaven!"
