Reviews
quite almondy
"I've found that all the cakey flavours I've tried have been very almond/marzipan forward - if I had known that, I wouldn't have bought them as I don't like marzipan at all and I didn't really expect it, I thought it would be a lot more vanilla flavoured! Nothing in the ingredients to suggest an almond or marzipan flavouring but it might come under "natural flavouring" - would be really useful to have this stated anywhere as now I feel I need to avoid any baked good themed teas just in case. Really love the sprinkles though, super cute!"
meh not that good personally
"got this as the free birthday gift and the tea arrived and seemed quite powdery and fine compared to the photos online. it is really fine as bits have seeped through the strainer on my teapot. cant really taste any of the "cake" elements as it is overpowered by the red bush flavour (would love to try this in the pure black tea as that personally is what i prefer) it is drinkable but i would not run to have another cup."
Cakey Treat
"This lovely tea makes for a great gift as its not too intensely sweet so its a safe bday themed gift, the little sprinkles are so cute they make me smile. Its cake-like and warm but very fine so you must use a fine strainer"
One of my favourites!
"This was always my all- time favourite (but gingerbread chai might have just pipped it now!). It's a lovely vanilla-y brew with a hint of sweetness, and those sprinkles make it feel really special!"
Delightful
"Brilliant tea, I absolutely love the vanilla taste and the little stars inside as well. Nice little treat to have."
feel it has changed
"was a bit disappointed there were only about 3 stars in the whole pouch i poured it in to a glass jar to check if they was at the bottom but sadly not also no purple flowers feel like its lost its sparkle"
Great flavour
"Nice tasting tea only tried hot nice flavours can taste everything enjoy this one so does my hubby."
not the best
"got this with my last order and was excited to try with it being my birthday month. when it arrived the tea was very fine not at all like the picture shown. and it tasted nothing like birthday cake. it was very heavy with the roobus flavour would love to see this as a plain black tea as i think that would work better"
Nice balance of flavours but a little too sweet for me.
"I had this as a birthday treat- nice idea. There was a good balance of flavours but for my taste it was too sweet."
Q&A
- Hello, I was just wondering if this tea is gluten free? Would like to buy for a friend but they’re celiac. Also does the tea come in the cute jar? Thanks 😊
- Hello Francesca, thank you for your question. All our current blends are gluten free. As one of the main 14 Allergen's should a blend contain gluten we would highlight that on the website and all packaging. Andi @ B&B
- Why is this one of the headline teas being displayed in a feature on caffeine-free teas? I thought the recipe must have changed but it still includes black tea...
- Hi Louise, thank you so much for asking your question! Although this tea is predominantly a rooibos blend it does contain a small amount of black tea and therefore is not 100% caffeine free. Most of our customers who live low caffeine lifestyles and/or have caffeine sensitivity tell us this blend is fine for them to enjoy but we advise to avoid if you are allergic to caffeine. I will raise this with our digital TEAm to see if we can make it clearer on the site. Happy Sipping! Ian @ B&B
- Is this tea decaff?
- Hi Heather, thank you for reaching out with a question! Birthday Cake tea contains a small amount of Black Tea along with Rooibos so it is not free of caffeine. If you are looking for something completely caffeine free we do have a lovely Wedding Cake blend which is similar but with subtle notes of vanilla sponge, coconut & rose! A really lovely one to try. I hope this helps - Happy Sipping! Ruth @B&B
- Hello. Is this tea sugar free? Thanks
- Hi Hannah, thanks for asking! Birthday Cake Tea has star sprinkles, which do contain sugar. Check out our allergens page for a bit more information: https://www.birdandblendtea.com/pages/allergens-tea Ian @ B&B
