Ramsgate Cakery

Ramsgate Cakery is a small suburban gem that does what so many big bakeries have forgotten, it bakes with traditional simplicity and genuine care. These are small-batch, homemade cakes made with fresher, simpler ingredients, and you can absolutely taste the difference. Compared to bulk, store-made cakes that rely on additives, preservatives, and stabilisers for shelf life, the cakes here are richer, more balanced, and far more satisfying. The flavour is real, not manufactured. I’ve been coming here for over 5 years now. I’m not a local, but whenever I’m in the area I make a point of stopping by that alone says a lot. Over the years I’ve had many conversations with the owners a husband and wife team who are genuinely beautiful people inside and out. I’m always greeted with a smile, and what really stands out is that it’s not just me, every customer who walks through the door is treated with the same warmth, respect, and kindness.

First time customer found this place on google whilst looking for cake shops that do red velvet cake or the popular watermelon cake. Ended up coming here Saturday afternoon just before they closed in the hopes I could get my hands on either cake for my daughters birthday the next day. So glad I did I could not be happier. The gentleman who served me was so patient and polite gave me his opinions on both cakes for me decide. Ended up going with watermelon cake and so happy it was all gone and everyone loved it. So moist and fresh and definitely worth it. Prices are very reasonable and it helps being able to get something last minute. Will definitely be coming back in the future.

We just popped in for the Portuguese tart. Just one. It was after a failed experiment at getting a scone from another nearby cafe. So we needed saving. Just a little something to get the palate back on track. To restore faith in local bakeries. To feel human again. The tart did not disappoint. Crunchy. Smooth. Tasty.

My boyfriend bought a Red velvet cake (my favourite type of cake) from here for us to have on valentines day and im sad to say that I was extremely disappointed. Although the cake looked amazing, the bottom layer of cake was burnt, the cake itself lacked in flavour and was dry. On top of that, red velvet cake is known for having its signature cream cheese frosting and they had used some kind of vanilla frosting that lacked any real flavour and tasted cheap. After reading the reviews and checking out their website I can say that everything looks amazing in theory but to mess up the basics on a classic, fairly simple cake that badly does not bode well for the more intricate cakes they have to offer. On the plus side, the boyfriend did say the person who served him was very nice and helpful and the atmosphere was great.

What a gem! The Portuguese tart was just amazing! Good coffee and the owner's friendly! Definitely worth checking out if you're in Ramsgate! I'd go there every week for the Portuguese tart if I live close!

I had the pleasure of having the fruit custard tart and the famous Portuguese tart today. Both so delicious, I wish had discovered this place sooner. Such lovely and down-to-earth owners too. Will be coming back.

Ramagate Cakery has become my go-to for birthday cakes because they consistently deliver beautiful and delicious creations. They are super friendly, easy to communicate with and fair pricing. Their sausage rolls are also the best ive ever had!
