If chewy soft cookies are more your thing, then you’ll really love the vegan-friendly cookies from Simply Cake Co. They come in three fantastic flavours and you can buy them as a box of three (great for personal snacking) or as a box of six.

I recommend heating them up in the oven for a short while before eating to make your kitchen smell of cookies and to get the fresh cookie feeling when you take a bite into one.

These cookies are also gluten-free, but you wouldn’t be able to tell!

You can get a selection box of 6 different vegan cupcake flavours. They have some classic flavours, like red velvet, and some fun flavours, like passionfruit.

You can order a box of 6 or a box of 12, and they are priced the same as the non-vegan versions!

Best doughnuts

6. Crosstown

  • Diet: Vegan-friendly
  • Options: Dark chocolate truffle, pink guava and strawberry, iced chai and apricot and much more
  • Delivery: Depends on location

Crosstown is one of my favourite discoveries, ever. Their vegan doughnuts are incredible. They are so good that I do wonder why they still offer their non-vegan versions. You’d never guess the vegan ones are vegan!

They are made using their signature sourdough dough mix which gives them a great taste and texture. You will find a few regular flavours always on offer, like their dark chocolate truffle (delicious), and you will also find seasonal specials. I like to order a box whenever they have a new selection, which is actually quite regular. Sorry, stomach.

If you are based in London you can get these on same-day delivery, or you can pick some up from a local store in London, Bath, Bristol, Cambridge, Oxford, or Brighton. For other nationwide destinations, you will have to put your postcode into the checkout to see delivery options.


Frequently asked questions

Here are some answers to your FAQs regarding vegan cake deliveries.

Are vegan cakes more expensive?

It can be more expensive to make a vegan cake, especially when specialist ingredients are involved. For example, aquafaba may be used as a vegan egg alternative and this can be a little pricier than sourcing eggs. Moreover, if a cake is also gluten-free the flour itself may be more expensive than traditional plain flour. However, when it comes to buying cakes for delivery, I have found most services to cost a similar amount, vegan or not.

Are vegan cakes healthier?

Vegan cakes are free from animal-based ingredients such as butter, eggs, and dairy, which are all high in saturated fat and cholesterol, making them somewhat healthier than their non-vegan counterparts. But vegan cakes do still contain plenty of sugar and other unhealthy ingredients vegan butter. Therefore, they should still be seen as a treat, rather than a daily staple.
