They serve the most amazing cakes! But they're really rich, so would advise it as a once in a while treat. If you're ordering a cake for a special occasion, you're sure ro have your guests raving about how good the cake was!
The Velvet Cake Co. supplied me with the most delicious birthday cake I think I've ever had. I ordered the rainbow cake with cream cheese frosting with the piñata filling. Could eat this cake for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Seriously good cakes and cupcakes. They are amazing and so flavorful. They put more well known cake places in cape town to shame and for half the price. If you have a sweet tooth, i highly recommend the velvet cake co
The best place for cupcakes and cakes. Such an amazing velvety texture and sweet taste. There is a large variety that tempts you to buy all the various colorful cupcakes on display. As much as I love this place, I can’t say my diet is too fond of it.
Can't get enough of their cupcakes. Their cakes are also good, although at times quite heavy. Would love to try the new cake slices. Have ordered quiches in the past for entertaining but have found them to be too rich.
Pros: Very cute store
Favourite: Milk Tart CupcakesCons: Very limited parking
OK, so I must admit, I’ve never been to the physical store, but I’ve had the cupcakes from The Velvet Cake Co. on several occasions and every time they are an absolute delight.
Their Red Velvet and Carrot cupcakes are amazing, but the Sweetie Pie cupcake is my new favourite. The topping is decadently rich, fluffy, not too sweet and has more than enough chocolate. The base is moist and chocolaty and it's the perfect less sweet accompaniment to the indulgent topping. Nom, nom, nom!
We bought cupcakes to take as a gift to the family hosting us for dinner and it was the perfect choice. The Velvet Cake Co. has a stellar reputation and are consistently delicious. The cake itself is moist and the icing is to die for. It’s abundant and smooth but not too sweet - definitely my favourite part.

I can't say that I've ever been disappointed in a cake from The Velvet Cake Company as of yet - moist, tasty, delicious. Some of the cakes are a tad too sweet for my liking and I could do with a little bit less frosting, although I understand that it adds to the look of the cakes and cupcakes. I wish their cupcakes were a bit smaller as I find them difficult to finish, but it is by no means a deal breaker. I like the look of the shop - it's fun and quirky and what you'd expect of a little cake shop. They also offer some cake toppers which are a nice touch if you need something for a special occasion. The staff are generally friendly and helpful and the packaging is just adorable.

Upon arrival I’ll admit the place wasn’t quite what I was expecting from the pictures online but the cakes were fresh and moist! Unfortunately, the rainbow cake’s icing didn’t taste like anything which was confusing... but the chocolate cake was the stuff dreams are made of!
The manager wasn’t friendly but was redeemed by the staff who served us with smiles on their faces. There was adequate parking nearby which was quite nice.
It’s a nice place to grab a slice of cake to enjoy elsewhere.
We were very dissapointed. This wasn't my first time at Velvet Cake Co. It is always such a pleasure walking in this store and cakes always look so beautiful and delicious. Velvet Cake Co. has lovely treats, however I was very dissapointed this time round. We ordered the lemon poppy cupcake and red velvet cream cheese cupcake. The cream cheese icing did not taste like cream cheese. All we could tatse was an overload of butter, on both cakes! Butter icing can be great but this was not. Obviously we expected a cream cheese icing on the red velvet cupcake and felt a bit decieved. If we knew it was going to be a butter icing we might have ordered something else. After digging into both cupcakes we regret buying them. Ultimately this is not the type of response you want. Overall the service was good and store presentation is cute. I love this store and hope to have a better experience next time!

I just wanted to let you know that I LOVED my Naked Rainbow Cake for my 30th!! Thank you so much The Velvet Cake Co for going the extra mile for adding my chocolate "Happy Birthday" topping! You & your cakes are the Best! I would recommend you to everyone! Many Thanks again! 😊🎂
The service was good and cakes were nice too. We ordered a pink velvet cake and a blue velvet cake for two girls. The only thing I wish it to improve is the blue velvet cake to be lighter in colour, like the baby blue on the outside. The blue was too dark and my tongue was blue till next day.
The cake was amazing - but the communication is lacking majorly after paying for the order and knowing that the store has successfully received payment and is “on it”.
Thing a quick call from the shop to say, hello we will be ready confirming the order will make this an amazing experience to get the service an the quality of the cakes on equal standards...
The best cake... Perfect texture, bursting with flavor and yumminess 😋
Still the most delicious store bought cake even though the company has upscaled so much since its small beginnings (I've been a fan right from the start). It's a pity that this store is closing since they have moved on to having shops in the malls. One bit of advice, I miss seeing all the different cakes and choosing a slice and SITTING DOWN to enjoy it. Since Soet's cake has become sh##ty, stock them!
Best cake ever. Love the teams at Tygervalley store. . Only bummer is if you have the odd complaint it seems to be blown off online, only seem to respond to osetive feedback or suggestions , But other than that I will keep supporting. The also have a loyalty card (I filled up a few hehe) and this was my review on yesterday's carrot cupcake
Oooh we got ours (blue velvet) and the carrot cupcakes.... Only had the carrot so far. . HOLY MOLY... God must have known my heart needed extra cream cheese frosting, my cupcake was loaded, so bless the hands that iced them. It was the best carrot cake I had from you guys since you opened... Honestly it was so fresh... I would go for a second if I had any space hehe.. Thank you for the good cake.. Looking forward to my blue vvet one tomorrow. And once again, Tygervalley crew is the best ❤️
The most magnificent cake you will ever buy. Every bite is moist, beautiful and so deliciously addictive. 100% recommend. Everyone deserves to have tasted a slice of their rainbow cake at least once in their lives.
Thank you for great service. My sons cake was perfect exactly what I wanted. We are definitely coming back next year for more.
Best cake that I have ever had in a while..
Very moist and best tasting cupcakes and cakes I ever had! Pricey, but worth it.
