Hello Daydreamers
*This post contains PR samples, all opinions are my own as always :)
I got something in the post today!
I always get excited when I have mail- even if it's just a boring old letter but today it wasn't just a boring old letter, It was a cake!
This cake was sent for the purpose of a review.
Now you might have already seen reviews and blog posts about the company Baker days because they have been sending 'letterbox cakes' to bloggers for the past few months.
Letterbox cakes are cakes that are made just the right size to fit through a letterbox- they arrive with your regular post and are definitely a fun alternative to bills!
Baker days offer many different cakes from birthday cakes to cupcakes to thank you cakes, they even offer a range of One Direction cakes! There really is something for everyone. If you're wanting something more personalised then you can literally design your own cake by choosing the picture, wording and cake flavour yourself.
For the actual cake part you can choose between vanilla sponge cake, chocolate chip cake, fruit cake, gluten free cake and dairy free cake! Yeeesh that's a whole load of choices!
So, I chose a vanilla sponge letterbox cake with my blog banner printed on white icing and I love how it turned out, I took so many pictures and was even reluctant to cut a slice from it- but I did anyway because the scent of lovely sweet cake took over and the guilt soon went away!

I'll be honest here, I had my doubts about the actual cake and thought this was more of a gimmick than a quality gift however the cake was totally delicious, fresh and sweet.
Letterbox cakes can also last for 2 weeks- (freshness wise) not that we managed to test this claim, ours was gone within days!
All in all, I think letterbox cakes are a fab concept and I'm definitely going to look into Baker Days other products due to the fab, friendly and quick service I received.

Have you tried anything from the lovely Baker Days yet?
What a brilliant idea. Your cake looks so pretty and moist. I will definitely look on their website as I have, made a big lemon cake before, boxed it up and sent it via the post office. It was very lovingly received, but I had to let my friend know it was on it's way as there's no way it would've fit through the letter box!! Kinda spoils the surprise. Fab idea.

The cake looks so cool! That's amazing that they send you a cake in the post. What a unique and inventive idea. I sadly live in the US so I will not be able to get anything from Baker Days or enter the raffle. :( I've always wanted to see the UK though. Maybe I could get a ticket after saving a bit of money. Anywho, great post as always Georgia! Ciao!
ReplyDeleteyummy, and happy b-day!:)
