Each Shingle Inn Cake is made with love and care, following a cherished traditional recipe. Our bakers pay close attention to every detail, ensuring that each patty cake that is simply irresistible.
The signature Patty Cake and Butter Cake is a traditional butter cake, topped with a generous swirl of smooth, velvety buttercream icing.
Available in a variety of flavours including passionfruit, chocolate or pink icing. They are available in six packs, however if you’re finding it difficult to decide, we recommend a mixed pack (featuring two of each flavour).
