Every cake in a box from BuyCake is carefully packed so it is convenient to carry, store and give as a gift. Your cake stays protected inside its box until you are ready to open it and enjoy it.
Our cakes in a box are made to order in Edinburgh and prepared with presentation and convenience in mind. Keep your cake refrigerated in its box, take it to your celebration and simply unpack it when the special moment arrives.

Every cake shown in this collection is baked to order in our Edinburgh kitchen, so the size, the finish and the recipe inside are decisions you make rather than defaults you inherit from a photograph. The listing shows the real cake we delivered, not a stock image.
A single-tier cake suits 12–20 guests and works well when dessert is served separately. Two tiers cover most gatherings of 40–70 guests. Three tiers are for larger events, or when you want the height for photographs.
Cake Base, Cream and Filling are chosen in that order, and the configurator only shows combinations that hold up in the finished cake. Vanilla sponge with cream cheese and berry filling is the most popular choice across cakes in a box; pistachio sponge, Kyiv layers and Napoleon are available as premium bases.
We deliver across Edinburgh in our own vehicle and set the cake up at an agreed time. Delivery within Edinburgh is included in the online price. For addresses outside the city, send us the postcode before ordering.
A cake box makes enjoying your order simpler from the moment you receive it. Every BuyCake cake is carefully placed in suitable packaging so you can carry it more comfortably, present it as a gift and keep it refrigerated before serving. The box also helps protect the cake and its decoration while it is being stored or taken to a birthday, family celebration or special occasion. When you are ready, simply open the box, take out your cake and enjoy it. Our cakes are made to order in Edinburgh, with convenient packaging included as part of your order.
Our main cake kitchen is on the outskirts of Edinburgh. We also have a collection and dispatch point near Gorgie Road, close to Haymarket.
For orders placed online we prioritise delivery to your address. We deliver across Edinburgh in our own vehicle, and delivery within Edinburgh is included in the online cake price.
Two to three weeks is comfortable for most cakes in a box, and six to eight weeks for large tiered cakes. We do take shorter notice when the diary allows, so ask before assuming a date is closed.
No. The photograph shows the exterior of a cake in a box we have made. The recipe is chosen separately, and only Cake Base, Cream and Filling combinations that suit the design are shown.
Yes. Every listing uses a photo of a cake we baked and delivered, published with the customer’s approval.
Delivery within Edinburgh is included in the online price and we agree the delivery time with you. For addresses outside the city, send the postcode and we will confirm.
Send photographs or colour references with the order and we will confirm the finish. Fresh flowers are arranged on the day of delivery.
Larger sizes, premium bases and decoration levels use more ingredients and production time, so the online total updates as you choose. The price shown at checkout is the final online price.
