Iced Sponge Cake - Square 8 inch
Our white iced undecorated sponges are available to buy plain for you to decorate your own cake. Delivered as pictured, an 8 inch square iced sponge cake covered in smooth white sugarpaste in a choice of size. Royal icing beads hold it on a thick drum (board), but it's otherwise blank. Add your own finishing touches with figurines, flowers, wedding decorations, or airbrush with colour to create your own design. Our undecorated sponge cakes are ideal for wedding cakes, birthday parties, or any special occasion or celebration.
We also have a 10 Inch square sponge, a round version of this cake, to decorate yourself.
To create your own photocake you can buy this square sponge and one of our edible printed photo toppers.
Don't have the inclination to create your own cake? You can buy a photo cake for delivery the next day.
Our cakes are of the highest quality and taste as good as they look! The light sponge is superb with a moist, soft texture that melts in your mouth.
They are available in two flavours - classic sponge with raspberry jam & buttercream filling, or chocolate sponge with chocolate buttercream.
Choose from two sizes:
- Medium (8 inch) measures 8 x 8 inches (20 x 20 cm) and serves 16 to 24 portions.
- Large (10 inch) measures 10 x 10 inches (25 x 25 cm) and serves 24 to 36 portions.
Of course the number of portions depends on how you cut the cake! Our guide is based on a slice from 2 to 3 inches by one inch.
We use only the best quality ingredients including free range eggs. Because the sponge is completely enclosed in the icing they keep very well. We guarantee they will stay fresh for a minimum of 5 days, but usually they last even longer.They are square in shape, covered in white sugarpaste icing and sit on a thick cake board with piped royal icing shells around the base.

Our cakes are made and iced by hand. Whilst we try to make each one as square and as flat as possible, there may be slight variations.

Hi,
Just wanted to say how pleased I have been with your service.
I ordered a 10 inch square iced cake to decorate for my Fiancés birthday.
My aim was to make a Monopoly Board cake but with all the details I left myself no time to bake and ice a cake.
I ordered the cake and it arrived amazingly package and so beautifully iced.
I have attached a photo of the cake I have decorated as without your amazing service it wouldn't of been finished in time.
Thank you!!

Great service thank you.

Thank you so much for my cake! Ordered on the Wednesday and got it on the Friday ready to decorate for my babies Christening on Sunday!!! It looks amazing and with it being smooth it was so easy to stick the decorations on, and I'm sure it'll taste as nice as it looks!

Morning Natalie,
The cake was lovely as usual and I managed to get it to Brecon in one piece!. I added the cake topper and my sister and husband were thrilled with their surprise.
Thank you again for your help and I will definitely be in touch again when I next need a special cake.

Dear Natalie,
I would just like to say what a fantastic undecorated chocolate sponge cake! Ordered for my Son's 16th birthday party. Arrived safely via courier, with great packaging. The cake itself was delicious. The positive comments from everyone was very nice to hear. I will def. be ordering again for our next celebration. I have included a photo of finished cake.
Jo
Hi,
The undecorated chocolate sponge arrived in perfect condition. I was little worried that I’d done the right thing by ordering a pre-made/iced cake online,
but I decorated it myself ready for my son’s 6th birthday with different coloured icing squares & Minecraft icing figures & I found it was the least stressful birthday that he’s had as I didn’t need to worry about making, baking, covering the cake & getting it right (which over the years hasn’t gone to plan believe me)
It was the perfect end to his birthday when he saw it & we all enjoyed eating it, the entire sponge was lovely & not even a single crumb left. Find picture attached as to how it turned out.
Will definitely be ordering from you on the next special occasion.
Susan
My experience with Caketoppers was great from start to finish. This was the first time I had ordered a cake online, but having read the favourable reviews I decided to go ahead....and was not disappointed!
The ordering process itself was simple and I was kept well-informed of the delivery timescale. When the cake arrived it was found to be very well-packaged.
The cake, which was for my 50th birthday party, was moist and delicious and enjoyed by myself and guests.
I would definitely recommend Caketoppers to friends and family having experienced excellent delivery and quality.
Marcia
Hi Natalie,
We had our event on Wednesday and the cake was the star of the show. I've attached a photo, it tasted delicious and we managed to decorate it exactly how we wanted it.
Thank you again for changing the delivery date, the whole process with Caketoppers has been flexible, cost-effective and overall brilliant :)
Georgina
Good afternoon.
I’m just sending this to say a big thank you for the cakes that were delivered on Friday 01/06/18. They were received in perfect condition and once decorated made a perfect wedding cake, all the guests commented on the flavour and how moist the cakes were. I have attached a photo of the cakes after being decorated. This is the second time I've used your company and I will definitely come to you again in the future and recommend you to friends .
Karen
I don’t often write reviews but felt that I had to on this occasion. I ordered the 8” & 10” square cakes in both flavours for my Daughters Christening. They were delivered in perfect condition and looked absolutely lovely even before I had decorated them. Once stacked and decorated they were beautiful and I was thrilled with them. Both flavours tasted gorgeous and stayed fresh and moist for days. Thank you!
