It was a good day when we had some scrummy cake arrive through our letterbox. Dale’s Handmade Ltd had sent us one of his subscription boxes as a gift.

Once the kids had realised that cake had arrived they rushed over to try and claim their piece. The hard part was which piece was going to be who’s, especially as mummy has a sweet tooth.

Carefully wrapped, you could see that a lot of thought had gone into making sure everything survived the postal system. We were impressed that 100% biodegradable bags were used to individually wrap each treat.

Alongside the thoughtful presentation, we liked that there was a selection to choose from. There was something for everyone and we didn’t have to worry about someone not been able to join in.

Robyn and daddy got their mouths round the bourbon biscuit replica cake, their faces said that I should have had one of those. Robyn enjoyed tucking in and Daddy says it was like a bourbon biscuit but leveled up. A mouthwatering treat that will leave you wanting more.

Sophie and Riley went for the traybake and again it didn’t last long, they wolfed it down, speaks volumes for them especially as I suddenly heard “mmmmm” “ooooh”. It wasn’t dry, which is something I thought could happen because of the travel it made. Everyone couldn’t believe just how fresh everything was.

Which only means one thing, it was my turn to enjoy something and I went for the marble cake. It was delicious and I could have eaten more, the only thing I think we should have done is popped it in the refrigerator as it was a hot day and the cake was warm. It just means that we will have to do that with our next order and not let our sweet overcome us. The box didn’t last ten minutes for us as a family of five and it left us wondering what the other boxes would be like. There’s a brownie one we have our eyes on.

You can buy a trial subscription box for just £12 and this includes shipping. The price after that is £15 and again including shipping. For a handmade product with the selection you receive, we think this is a reasonable price.

Dale’s Handmade Ltd sends other items through the post like a homemade brownie dessert kit, a mixed pack of 6 brownies and a pack of 3 mini loaf cakes.

I think any of the cake by post items are perfect to send to a friend or family member to list their spirits or for an occasion.
