There’s something undeniably special about a perfectly sized cake that feels made just for you and your closest circle.

Choosing the right cake size can be tricky — go too small and you’ll run out before everyone’s had a slice, too big and you’ll be eating leftovers for days. Our small cakes for 4–6 people hit the perfect balance.
They’re ideal for:
Intimate celebrations with family or close friends
Small birthday gatherings where you want every slice to be fresh
Special dinners where dessert is the grand finale
Everyday indulgence when you feel like treating yourself
With just the right number of slices, you can enjoy your celebration without worrying about waste. Explore our Small Cakes for 4–6 People and see why this size is one of our most-loved options.
Not sure if 4–6 is right for your occasion? Our Cake Size Guide walks you through every size option so you can order with confidence.
A cake for 4–6 people is all about savouring the moment without excess. For a gathering of four, each guest can enjoy a generous slice; for six, you’ll have perfectly portioned servings that leave everyone satisfied. Use a long, sharp cake knife for clean cuts, and serve on beautiful plates to elevate the experience.
Leftovers, if there are any, can be stored in the fridge in an airtight container for up to three days, maintaining freshness and flavour. Pair your cake with a perfectly matched drink: a rich chocolate mudcake loves a strong espresso, while fruity cakes shine alongside sparkling wine or a fragrant herbal tea.
For larger events, you can also explore our Cakes for 8–10 People for the same handmade luxury in a bigger size.
For a small guest list, a cake for 4–6 is more than enough to mark the occasion in style. Choose from rich mudcakes, light tortes, or seasonal flavours that make the moment extra special.
Pair a petite cake with tea, coffee, or champagne and create an elegant spread without overcatering.
A small handmade cake makes a thoughtful, heartfelt thank-you gift for friends, neighbours, or workmates.
No matter the reason, our Small Cakes for 4–6 People are designed to make every occasion memorable.
Every celebration calls for a cake that reflects your taste, style, and mood. Our small cakes for 4–6 people include an array of flavours to suit every palate:
Passionfruit & White Chocolate Mud Teacake – A tropical twist on indulgence, this moist, rich cake is topped with tangy passionfruit icing and finished with delicate seeds for texture. Perfect for summer gatherings or when you want a fresh, vibrant dessert.
Chocolate Mud Teacake with Raspberries – Inspired by a childhood favourite, this cake delivers a creamy, malty chocolate flavour wrapped in a luxurious Belgian chocolate finish. Ideal for chocolate lovers who appreciate a nostalgic touch.

Every cake we make begins with our commitment to luxury handmade quality. We use only premium ingredients, rich Belgian chocolate, real butter, and fresh cream, and craft each cake in small batches to ensure every bite is perfect.
Our cakes are elegantly packaged for gifting or easy transport, making them as beautiful to present as they are to enjoy. Order from our Small Cakes for 4–6 People range and experience the difference that care, craftsmanship, and 18+ years of baking expertise can make.
The beauty of a small cake is that it invites a more personal, intimate table setting. Keep the focus on the cake by pairing it with a crisp white or neutral linen tablecloth, elegant dessert plates, and polished silverware. Fresh flowers in soft tones make a charming centrepiece without overpowering the scene.
For a complete sensory experience, pair rich chocolate cakes with dark roast coffee or dessert wine, while fruit-topped cakes pair beautifully with sparkling mineral water or champagne. Add a few handmade treats from our Little Luxuries Collection to round out the table and give guests something extra to enjoy.

Decadent Mudcakes – chocolate indulgence at its finest
