On first impressions, this cake toy is a little underwhelming (the packaging isn't great either, it looks a bit cheap). It’s small at 13cm so falls short of other similar cake type sets my daughter owns. But it’s better designed than others; the detail is good, my daughter particularly likes the fact that the layers of the cake are detailed on each slice as she cuts down into it. The strawberry centre piece is a really nice touch, and the Velcro pieces that hold each slice together are strong and give a satisfying crunch when she cuts through.The candles I feel are added as a bit of an afterthought however; they look lovely, with a nice felt flame, but are more for decorative effect rather than up to the task of hands-on play.

This is not my favourite Le Toy Van toy, although as with all this manufacturer’s toy products, it is well constructed, beautifully designed and artfully painted.This is a wooden birthday cake, complete with five removable candles, a strawberry and a ‘knife’. The outside of the box in which it arrived can be reutilised. It has been thoughtfully designed so that the back can be cut out to make a paper plate on which to rest the cake (I am currently using the box though to store the cake!)The individual slices are able to hold together with velcro and a wooden blunt knife is supplied with which to ‘cut’ the cake. Unfortunately the ‘blade’ is thick and it does not slip well through the cake slices.

The birthday cake is about the size of the centre of a side plate so not huge but not too small either for little hands. All the pieces are shrink wrapped together and very easy to put together – just put the candles in the holes and the strawberry peg in the centre. It comes with a cake slice but the huge drawback is the slice is too thick to easily get between the slices of cake. The first piece is also the hardest to remove because once you unstick one side, it then re-sticks while you’re trying to slice the other side. This is really meant to be used with other similar items like a kitchen because you need to cut up the box for the ‘plate’. I do like the candles having the felt fire (they do stand up fine in mine)

We had another brand cake which my eldest daughter had, it was bigger but over the years various parts have gone missing (eaten by dog) so when I saw this I thought it was ideal for my youngest as she has been makin do with 3/4 of a cake and 2 candles!This cake came, I unpacked it, looked very well made but it was very small in comparison to the other. You get a cake (6 pieces held together by velco), 6 fat candles, a strawberry decoration with leaves and a cake slice. The leaves and candle flames are made from felt, which is a nice addition.Overall the cake is well made, the daughter loved chopping the cake into slices 'n feeding us (if only it was real cake!), and for that I would recommend thoroughly.

My daughter found the Le Toy series of tea party items for her two year old for his birthday. He really loved this cake to go with the red spotty tea set and the coffee machine and will spend hours cutting and handing out goodies to his family and friends. I have seen comments that this cake is rather small and difficult to cut and that the candles fall off. The whole cake is a perfect size for small hands to carry when the Velcro pieces are sticking together and if the candles fall off they give hand and eye coordination practice for the child, putting them back in place. Slightly easing the first slice apart helps with the cutting problem, but all in all,

My little ones and their friends thoroughly enjoy having afternoon tea parties with their chocolate cake. The cake comprises of six slices of cake which stick together with Velcro. You can use the wooden cake server to cut into the cake and separate the slices, adding to the theatre of the afternoon tea for the little ones. In the centre of the cake there’s a little strawberry on a wooden stick which could be dangerous for babies who like to put things in their mouth. As another reviewer has mentioned, it is disappointing that the red plate is made of cardboard and must be cut out from the box. I’ve deducted a star due to the plate.

The Le Toy Van Honeybake Vanilla Birthday Cake is brilliant. My three-year old loves roleplaying and takes great pleasure cutting and serving up slices of cake to everyone.You cannot fault Le Toy Van for quality. The cake is beautifully painted, with none of the sloppy finishing you might get with other brands. The pieces fit together neatly and the Velcro holds the cake slices together well. And the cake is made to last, as such I expect my kids to be able to pass it on to their own kids!A great gift for stimulating little imaginations; perfect as a standalone item or to go with a kitchen set.

My 2 year old grandson loves this cake to go in his play kitchen; it's nice and small for him to hold and looks just like the picture.We had a minor problem with the candles being loose,but I put a little bit of Blu-Tak on the ends and they were fine. There's a plate on the back of the box it comes in you can cut out,but then you can't keep the candles and cutter in the box,so I used a little plastic one instead. I think it could be a bit better designed,but the little fellow likes it so much I can't complain; when he serves it up he goes, " Mmm mmm,yum yum, " it's so sweet!

Children love to role play and this Little wooden cake with candles and slicer is great for this. Children love to ask if you would like some and then proudly hand you a slice. I found that candles were a bit difficult to get to stay put, but apart from that it was fine. There is hours of play value with toys like this and a little collection to allow children to play at make believe tea parties would be a good idea. Add some plastic plates and a blanket and they have the basis for lots of imaginative play and social skill building.

This is a nice toy and looks very pretty.My 3 year old niece loved playing with this. This is a good toy for children to use their imagination and role play 'birthday' cutting the cake and passing it around to 'guests'.I love that it is made from wood as there is too much plastic in this world already.I do wish however that the holes in which the candles sit in held the candles more securely as they fall out very easily.I think the price tag of £15 is a fair price for this toy due to its quality and design.

This is a great idea. Have you ever carried a birthday cake out and a little one wants to carry it well this would be ideal for them.The cake comes in a nice little box. This arrived on the day of my mums birthday so we made a video of our little one singing happy birthday and holding the cake and sent it to her. It certainly went down well. As it’s my dads birthday in a few weeks and we will actually be there we are gonna take the cake with us:)Although this is small its ideal for a little one to carry.

We love these super colourful, beautifully detailed, top quality wooden toys - there is something really pleasing about them. They look stunning and best of all they are not plastic!My little ones have such a lovely time using these for imaginary play, counting, drawing around, matching, sharing - you name it, there are so many ways to play with these.Lovely to look at too - theres nothing to hide away in a toy box here!Gorgeous - totally recommended to give or receive as a gift too.

This birthday was an instant hit, with the accompanying song breaking out almost immediately! Built to last, these wooden toys should last forever and that's always a plus. The velcro fixed slices of cake are easy for kids to 'cut' or just pull apart and the kids now have something other than a similar style pizza to serve up. Seeing that this cake initiates the Happy Birthday song though, that might be something to think about if you're not wanting to hear it over and over again!

This item arrived safe and well packaged.This wooden cake is a great little playset for young children. My little nieces loves to play with pretend food. I find these wooden toys much more resilient than some of the plastic. The paint is bright and realistic enough for a child whilst remaining bright and pleasant on the eye! I am quite impressed with the little candles too! I was able to have a pretend birthday cake bought to me, many, many times!I highly recommend this product.

This is a cute product. Cake is in 6 pieces. Kids will feel like the ‘made’ it as they stick the strawberry and candles into the holes on top of the cake. The server lets them help you to a slice. The cake plate is made by cutting the circle out of the box it comes in. This is fine, but does make the cake a little difficult to store.This would be a great gift for a toddler getting used to a new baby brother or sister or just celebrating their own birthday!
