Baker Days *Review* - Win a Valentine's Cake!

The Mini Mes love receiving post, as do I when it isn't bills, so when a beautiful personalised cake popped through the letterbox for them to scoff, they couldn't wait to tuck in! 


The cake was packaged really well in both a secure tin and box to guarantee safe delivery and freshness. The cake served 4-5 and I was able to select both the flavour (double chocolate chip), the image and wording that would suit the Mini Mes on the icing. I chose to have a message from Santa on it to ensure the excitement of Christmas didn't result in them misbehaving, but there are several categories to choose from including Valentine's Day, birthdays, and good luck cakes with over 400 designs to select from too - something for every occasion.


The cake was packed with flavour, light and moist. It was delicious and a lovely gift idea if you know someone that loves a tasty treat or if you aren't sure what to buy. There are gluten and wheat free versions too for those that may suffer with allergies - everyone can enjoy Baker Days!

Baker Days deliver, free of charge, personalised and photo upload cakes and cupcakes straight to the recipients door. The letterbox cakes are perfectly sized to go straight through the letterbox so no knocking is required and missed delivery cards! There are also larger versions available to save the hassle of shopping for a party cake. If you order before 1pm you can get next day delivery too.

They are quite expensive at £14.99 but when compared to the price of flowers or balloon deliveries this is a great, affordable alternative with a special personalised touch.

*** WIN ***

For your chance to win a letterbox cake from the Valentine's range you can enter via the Rafflecopter entry form below.

There are plenty to select from including these...


The competition closes on 8th February. 

Good luck!

  47. My hubby often surprises me, our first valentine happened after we had been together for nearly a year, I don't "do" valentine and he said he didn't either. I bought him a small box filled with his favourite jelly belly - I couldn't resist a small token of love - he bought me a very expensive chopard happy heart necklace! Oops! This year will be our 9th valentine and I've decided it's time I did something romantic! Emma x (twitter id @beachpebble)
    Oh and I don't usually do valentines - not because I'm cold hearted but because I've never had a genuine surprise mystery valentine! Ha ha!

    ReplyDelete
  48. Took me to see my fav rockband in 2010 (on Valentines' Day) although he doesn't like them. Doesn't get any more romantic than that. We had a great meal before and the gig was amazing.

    ReplyDelete
  49. Hubby is not that romantic I'm afraid. He shows his love in more practical ways like trimming my toenails when I was heavily pregnant and couldn't reach...now that's love.

    ReplyDelete
  50. I came home from Brownies (which I ran) to find the house in semi-darkness. The kids were all in bed (not a mean feat when all three were under five). Candles lit the living / dining room my favourite love songs were playing and a meal was about to be served. I was gobsmacked.

  80. He married me! Best day of my life and he decided to marry me after we had only known each other for a total of 6 days ... we have been happily married for 5 years now. He often does romantic things like buy me perfume, roses or other flowers, scarves from Louis Vuitton, gives me cards with little messages on them etc. But he also tells me he loves me every day (sometimes many times throughout the day) and gives me lots of hugs & kisses & holds my hand when we are out. He is the most wonderful man ever and I am truly blessed. Pamela
