Tea Time Treats Cake

A biscuit-lover’s cake of Madagascan vanilla sponge, Lotus Speculoos Swiss meringue buttercream and salted caramel ganache. The sponge is soft and clean in flavour, layered with smooth biscuit buttercream for caramelised spice and gentle crunch. Finished with salted caramel chocolate pearls, a Belgian chocolate teapot, caramel-filled chocolate cups and a generous arrangement of Lotus biscuits, Bourbons, Custard Creams and Jammie Dodgers, it brings the pleasure of the biscuit tin into a polished celebration cake.

Made to order · Hand-delivered · London & Surrey

British weather may be unreliable, but tea and biscuits rarely let anyone down. I wanted this cake to feel like the best bits of elevenses, afternoon tea and a sofa-bound biscuit raid, all dressed up enough to make it feel like an occasion. It is nostalgic, generous and gently ridiculous, which is exactly how a biscuit tin should be.
