The horses aren’t the only ones racing this weekend… our cakes are too! šŸŽšŸ° With Ascot’s Autumn Racing and Beer Festival Weekend in full swing, we’ve matched our bakes to the spirit of the track: bold, beautiful, and ready to gallop off the shelves.

Here’s the line-up in our very own ā€œcake stakesā€:

šŸ‹ Jackie’s Lemon Drizzle – light and zesty, the perfect frontrunner to get you off the mark.
šŸ„• Nicki’s Carrot Cake – a seasoned contender, full of spice and charm.
šŸ’ Nicki’s Bakewell Loaf – rich almond notes and cherry sweetness, an instant crowd-pleaser.
šŸ Sue’s Apple Dessert Cake – a classic autumn runner, crisp and comforting.
🌰 Sarah’s Almond Cookies – little bites with plenty of stamina, ideal for a quick nibble between races.
🫐 Diane’s Lemon & Blueberry Cake – fresh, fruity, and ready to take the lead.
ā˜•ļø Jackie’s Coffee & Walnut Cake – bold and punchy, guaranteed to perk up the paddock.
šŸ Sarah’s Pear & Vanilla Cake – smooth, elegant, and finishing strong with a hint of sweetness.

While Ascot brings its annual beer festival with its ales, ciders, and perries, alongside the racing, we’ve got your sweet tooth covered. Pair your cake with a hot coffee, tea, or something cool to sip… the perfect way to savour the occasion with friends and family.
