Gift 'subscriptions'
Chelsea bun 'subscriptions'

Following the stunning success of our Chelsea bun subscriptions (see Chelsea bun page) we have decided to extend this service to include other products with a shelf life that allows them to travel by post and arrive in good condition. We have done this already with Florentines, macaroons, loaf cakes and various other fancy cakes. Please contact us with your enquiries if there are any other products you would like to send and we will be happy to give you a quotation for a subscription.

Dundee Cake
small

The traditional light fruit cake, with almonds on top. Perfect for afternoon tea

Decorated Genoa - small

The decorated Genoa is a moist, light fruitcake, similar to the Dundee, but with a spectacular florentine decoration on top, including cherries, pecans and almonds.

Eight Cake
one size only

The Eight Cake is a favourite amongst Cambridge rowers. It is rich, high in fibre and full of energy-giving fruit. A little goes a long way! This cake has excellent keeping qualities. It is a favourite with alumni around the world on Boat Race Day.

Chocolate fudge cake

A great favourite with students. The fudge cake is a dark chocolate sponge covered with soft fudge icing. It also has a filling of chocolate fudge. It is not suitable for posting. If you wish to have one delivered to a college in Cambridge, you can place your order by telephone.

Carrot cake
Lemony cream cheese icing

A very popular cake, made with carrots, bananas and walnuts, with a sweet topping of lemon flavoured cream cheese. We also sell this in the shop at £2.20 for a generous slice.

Chocolate violet cake
available by mail order

This is our most popular chocolate cake. It measures 7" and will cut into 8-10 slices. It is a traditional chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream filling and chocolate fondant icing. It is called the 'Violet' because it has candied violet petal on top and a scattering of chocolate shavings. A gift card with your message will be enclosed with the cake if you are sending it by post.

Coffee walnut cake
available by mail order

Another firm favourite. This is a 7" plain sponge, with coffee and chopped walnut buttercream, coffee fondant icing, and a ring of walnut halves on top. A chocolate version is available (to order). A message card will be enclosed with the cake, on request.

Florentines - box of three
by post

Florentines - box of six
by post

The Florentine is one of our very best sellers. And it's the ideal treat if you're looking for something gluten-free - it contains almonds, cherries and dark chocolate.

Almond Macaroons - box of three
by post

Fitzbillies' almond macaroons are a generous 3.5" in diameter, crisp on the outside, and scrumptiously chewy inside.

Almond macaroons - box of 6
by post

Praline cake
available by mail order

A plain cake with praline buttercream filling, hazelnuts on top and flaked almonds on the side. We will enclose a message card with your cake on request.

Lemon cake
also available by post

A plain cake with lemon buttercream filling and lemon fondant icing. A message can be sent with the cake, on request

Rum Truffles

These wonderfully chocolatey cake truffles are a firm favourite at Fitzbillies. They're covered in chocolate and rolled in chocolate vermicelli. They are £1.30 in the shop, and we can send a box of four by post anywhere in the world. They have a good shelf life and travel well.

Loaf cake special

A box of two of our most popular loaf cakes - Lemon and Chocolate. Just perfect for teatime or with morning coffee. The cakes have a good shelf-life, but contain no artifical preservatives.
