For 21 years, the skilled Château Gâteaux pastry team has been hand-crafting its exquisite range of quality gourmet cakes and desserts, using the most exceptional ingredients available. To this end, when you purchase a Château Gâteaux masterpiece, you can expect to indulge in a product bursting with flavour and made from the finest fresh cream, chocolate, fruits and nuts.

Choose from a wide range of exceptional products (including a selection of take-home ready-to-eat or frozen gourmet cakes) or indulge in-store with scrumptious individual cold and hot desserts, cake frappés, croissants, pastries, tempting Turkish savoury bourekas and quiches. Thanks to their range of take-home cakes, entertaining is effortless with Château Gâteaux. The team has perfected the art of sealed-in freshness through their unique fresh-to-frozen process. This means you can keep your gourmet cake – either whole or slices – in the freezer for eight to 12 months (see product-specific label). Defrost at your convenience to its original and exceptional state; the retained flavour and quality will amaze you.
