Post Cakes;
deliver a gift or personal treat

Whether you’re looking for a party centrepiece or a special gift for a loved one, Meg Rivers Bakers of Happiness offers hand baked cakes by post across the UK. 

Founded in 1989 by keen baker Meg Rivers, we’ve built up a trusted and reliable reputation for outstanding bakes that arrive in tip-top condition every time. 

Sadly, Meg passed away in 2001, but her legacy and passion for quality cakes live on, and we continue to deliver cakes to thrilled recipients around the country. All of our delicious recipes are based on Meg’s own catalogue, and we pride ourselves on fantastic customer service — something Meg really valued.

Our cakes by post are perfect as a thoughtful present for a loved one, whether it’s for a birthday, to say congratulations, or to help them through a stressful exam time! And with our next day cake delivery service, you can send a sumptuous gift anywhere in the UK quickly and easily - hand baked by our skilled crafts people. 

Sending our cakes through the post is a surefire way to show a friend or loved one that they’re in your thoughts. After all, receiving a slice of cake is like a love language of its own. 

Whatever the occasion, cake is always welcome. And no matter what flavour or cake variety you’re searching for, you’re sure to find the ideal bake in our collection. From all-time classics to more unusual limited-edition options, there’s something to suit every taste. A tea-time treat is also the perfect way to practise a bit of self-care, so why not put your pinny away and  grab a tasty sponge or traybake for yourself, too?

Alongside traditional iced cakes and scrummy traybakes and biscuits, we offer generous gift hampers, packed with goodies for every occasion — be it a seasonal special for Christmas or to welcome a new baby to the family. For something truly spectacular, opt for one of our Cake subscriptions — the gift that keeps on giving!
