“Very prompt delivery, the goods were okay, but very sweet, very sugary, not something you could or should eat on a regular basis, maybe as an occasional treat, even cut in half or quarters to have a small amount at a time, in this day and age of obesity and diabetes, you need to be careful of fat and sugar overload, also where is the information on ingredients, because of allergies etc”
“Aberystwyth store the cakes are amazing, staff friendly and all in
All worth every penny!
On a trip to cardiff we thought we’d try the cafe down the bay…..one tray of brownies on show, the chocolate was white In colour giving it a mouldy appearance. The tables were dirty. Our cakes were handed to us in paper bags even though we were sitting in so I asked for a
Plate and knife as my 2 children were sharing (they’d be high on sugar if they had a cake each), however neither child liked their cake and when I tasted it I could see why, super dry! Maybe the cardiff store could take some tips from Aberystwyth store? Such a shame as I’d go back to the Aberystwyth store in a second!”
“Brownies were very squashed and tasted dry and overly sweet. There was no chocolate squidgyness you expect with a quality brownie. I've had better from tescos. Packaging was lovely though.”
“I was expecting better quality brownies for the name, the price and all the hype. I tried the original and it was very dry and needs to be consumed with tea. I am glad I tried them as I was curious and a keen baker myself, but with only 17% chocolate in the ingredients and even less in their other ranges, I will be baking my own next time.
This is the second apprentice bakery business I’ve been disappointed with…”
“These are the worse chocolate brownies I have ever tasted. I bought two boxes for Christmas gifts. As soon as they arrived I was doubtful by the sheer weight of the boxes... so heavy. I bought the Creme Brulee. Such a disappointment! Really dense texture and so sickly. Couldn't even finish one and fear the rest will be for the birds. Wish I had stayed with Gower Cottage!
Just awful... Sorry 😣”
“Had high hopes as the pictures look amazing but on opening the box there was a tear in the wrapper of one of the millionaires shortbread. The brownies were all rock hard and tasteless. I was glad I didn’t pay full price. All appeared to be different sizes. Overall disappointed which is a shame as was very excited to purchase.”
“Whilst the 4 out of the 6 cakes were edible the further 2 were so stale , brownies are supposed to be chewy in the middle these were sooooo hard I couldn’t possibly let my kids eat them. Really disappointed as was sooo looking forward to them”
“Prompt delivery but unfortunately the bakes did not live up to expectations. Got the mixed box for my birthday treat. Would not describe the bakes as 'ridiculously rich' at all. The brownies were dry and the rocky road was just crumbly chocolate around 4 big marshmallows. Disappointed.”
