Anyway, I'm going to pick up a few ready made cakes for a tea party on Saturday, and I'm thinking of going to Marks and Spencer as the nearest Waitrose is a mission.
I'm betting some of you have sampled many of their cakes and can recommend some for me to choose from.
Must be off the shelf or fridge and no coffee flavours.
Perhaps a gateaux.
Thanks in advance  | |||

"Ahem; M&S used to do an absolutely, jaw droppingly, mouth watering, Mississippi Mud Pie as I recall. Gooey as all hell and more the better for it! I haven’t had one for a few years though so am not sure if it’s still part of their stock "I tried to look online but could only find cakes for delivery, like birthday cakes. I'm plucking from the shelves because I can't make them at the moment. Can't really go wrong with chocolate, although I know someone is making a chocolate orange cake. I would like to contribute more than just a McVities Jamaican Ginger cake or packets of Mr Kipling's. | |||

"They are currently doing a raspberry ripple sponge cake which is nice. I'm not a massive fan of heavy buttercream but the tartness of the raspberry cuts through it a bit and tones down the sweetness. I'm a child when it comes to bright colours, and for my birthday my mate bought me the rainbow layer cake covered in hundreds and thousands. It looked amazing and was a nice enough sponge cake, but my high excitement when he delivered it (cake! colours! sprinkles! So very exciting!) faded as I really didn't think it was worth anything like the price he'd paid for it. Oh, they've a passion fruit Swiss roll with cream that is amazing, really good flavour on it and I'm sure it's under a fiver, and the frozen roulades are worth considering too (the toffee pecan one is never short on pecans)." They all sound lovely. I think I'll check out the fridges first, even though I can't eat cream. The raspberry ripples sounds great. | |||

"I like their tins of small bites such as flapjack and rice Krispie cakes. " They did tubs of tea cakes one Christmas that were really nice. I want a couple of cakes to cut to have with tea, I didn't think of small bites too. | |||

"The M&S near me do individual one person cakes, like chocolate muffin, Victoria sponge. The Victoria sponge one is delicious. They do a pack of 6 smallish cupcakes, vanilla, lemon and some kind of pink one. Or, they do slightly bigger cakes, like carrot cakes that you could get maybe 6 slices of. Or, they do really big fancy ones. I don't look at those so much so I don't know what the offerings are." 6 slice cakes? How big are the slices? Individual ones won't be any good they're for an afternoon tea party for 30+ people. | |||
