Why Chocolate & Orange Cake is the Flavour London Didn’t Know It Needed

Some flavour combinations are timeless. Chocolate and orange is one of them — rich, decadent, and just the right amount of citrus zing. At Baked at 8, we’ve taken this classic pairing and baked it into a loaf cake that Londoners can’t stop talking about.


A Zesty Twist on Tradition

Our Chocolate & Orange Loaf Cake brings together deep cocoa notes with bursts of fresh orange. The result? A cake that feels indulgent yet refreshing, perfect for sharing (or not sharing at all).


Why It Works

There’s science behind the magic: the bitterness of cocoa balances the sweetness of orange, while the citrus oils lift the richness of chocolate. It’s a bake that satisfies without being heavy.


When to Serve It

  • Dinner parties – an elegant dessert that pairs well with coffee.

  • Office celebrations – something different from the standard Victoria sponge.

  • Everyday indulgence – because some days simply call for chocolate.

Order yours today and discover why this flavour pairing is more than a fad — it’s a classic reimagined.
