 As good as my own!Jul 15, 2009

I lived in the UK for 5 years and can remember first seeing Battenberg in a local cafe that featured homemade dessert cake slices. I was fascinated and asked my partner what it was. Well, the minute I heard marzipan, I HAD to try it and the rest is history.
I often made my own which is roughly the size of a loaf cake and received raves for ''making an especially lush'' cake. BUT I didn't always want the hassle of doing my own. Enter my old chum Mr. Kipling and his exceedingly good cakes. Yes, they are and I was known to hide away with a box of 5 little Battenbergs, polishing them off in an evening. I am so happy to see them here. They are very sweet and worth every ounce!
Positively addictive!

The most sinfully delicious taste sensation I've come across in years!Sep 19, 2007
By Sherrie Hansen
We stumbled across Mr. Kipling's Mini Battenbergs 5 Pack on a recent trip to Scotland. They are incredibly moist and flavorful -- the almond paste wrap is what really makes them, but the cake itself is excellent, and the little bit of apricot jam between the squares is the crowning touch. They are pretty as well. Each battenberg could be sliced in squares and served at a tea party. My opinion is that once you taste one, they won't be around long enough to serve to guests.

I purchased this as a gift for my girlfriend. After living in England for a few years, this is one thing she missed the most.
It shipped on time, and tastes great!

DELICIOUSMay 22, 2012

I love Battenburg cakes so much that I make them myself and they come out perfect every time. A few months ago I found a website called Fantes, they sell Battenburg cake tins, yeah! They sell so many kitchen things.
You go on the Fantes site select 'Cake Pans'. Choose 'Square and Rectangular Pans'. Keep scrolling down until you see a picture of a Battenburg Cake, with the pink and yellow squares. It will say 'Silverwood Battenburg Cake Pan'. If you like to bake you'll love these. I bought two, and put them side by side, in my Euro Pro convection oven, which is a bit larger than the usual roaster toaster oven. I'd searched for years until I came accross these cake pans.
If you're not into baking, try these ready made Battenburg cakes, you won't be disappointed, they are absolutely delicious. The yummy sponges stuck together with apricot jam and covered with marzipan, Mmmmm you're in for a treat. I'm making my mouth water!
The chefs of the British Royal family were introduced to the German style of cake making, during Queen Victoria's reign. The first Battenburg cake was made in that German style to celebrate the wedding of Queen Victoria's Granddaughter's Princess Victoria of Hesse and by Rhine, and was named after her husband to be Prince Louis of Battenburg.
These yummy Battenburg cakes are readily available all over the UK in supermarkets. I'm happy to see them here on Amazon.

Solid, creamy, sweet. These cakes are well worth the price, I wish I'd ordered more at the time. The flavor is perfect with tea or coffee. Look beautiful on the plate to serve friends.
