How to send a cake to London from Saudi Arabia
- Choose the cake. Pick a design and size, and type the message you want piped on it.
- Add it to your cart and enter their postcode. The cart checks it is in our East London area.
- Choose the date and time slot in the cart. Only open dates are shown, so what you see is what we can deliver.
- Pay with your Saudi card in pounds. Add their name and phone number so the driver can reach them on the day.
Check the logos on your mada card. The Visa or Mastercard side is what pays overseas online, and your bank may send a one-time code to approve it. If a card only shows mada, use a credit card instead.

From Riyadh and Jeddah to East London
Many families in Ilford, Barking, East Ham and Seven Kings have a son, daughter or sibling working in Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam or Al Khobar. When contracts and leave dates keep you away, a cake at the door makes sure the birthday, the new baby or the exam result is still marked at home.
Each year many East London families travel to Makkah and Madinah for Umrah. If a parent is flying back to London, our Umrah Mubarak cake can be waiting for them with their name piped on it. Saudi weekends fall on Friday and Saturday, so check the London date and slot in the cart before you order.
Dates to plan ahead for
- Ramadan 2027Expected to begin around 8 February 2027, depending on the moon. A milk cake tray for an iftar at home is a kind way to join in from afar.
- UK Mother's Day: Sunday 7 March 2027Two or three days before Eid this year. Saudi Arabia marks Mother's Day on 21 March, so a mum in London will expect the UK day.
- Eid al-Fitr 2027Expected around 9 to 10 March 2027, depending on the moon. Mosques in London sometimes celebrate on a different day, so check with family there.
- Hajj season and Eid al-Adha 2027Eid al-Adha is expected around 16 May 2027, depending on the moon. A cake is a warm welcome for a relative home from Hajj.

Questions from senders in Saudi Arabia
Can I send a cake to London from Saudi Arabia?
Yes. Order on our website from Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam or anywhere in the Kingdom. We bake it in Dagenham and hand deliver to their home in East London for £4.99, on the date and time slot you choose in the cart.
Will my mada card work?
Yes, if it also carries a Visa or Mastercard logo, as most mada cards do. That side of the card pays overseas online, and your bank may send a one-time code to approve it. Saudi credit cards work too, as does Apple Pay with a Visa or Mastercard in your wallet.
How much is it in riyals?
We charge in pounds and your bank converts to riyals at its own rate. The live box near the top of this page shows the rough riyal cost of a £32.99 birthday cake today.
How do I pick the delivery date?
Add a cake, enter their London postcode and pick a date and time slot in the cart. Slots are in UK time, 2 or 3 hours behind Riyadh. Order early for Eid.
Can you make a cake to welcome someone home from Umrah or Hajj?
Yes. Our Umrah Mubarak cake has a gold topper and their name piped on it, and any of our cakes can carry a short message such as Hajj Mubarak. Choose the date they land back in London.
Will my family know the cake is from me?
Yes. Add your name to the cake message or the gift note, for example "Love from Riyadh", and it comes with the cake.
What if they are not home when you deliver?
Add their phone number at checkout. If nobody answers, the driver will try to contact them. Choose a time slot when someone will be in.
Are the cakes halal?
Yes. Every cake is halal, with no alcohol and no animal gelatine.
