About Let Them See Cake
Let Them See Cake is a cake-themed brunch restaurant at 593 Cowbridge Rd E in Cardiff. Wedding cakes are made to order and requested through an online order sheet, with tiered options in flavour pairings like raspberry and pistachio. Macarons sit alongside the cakes, with gluten-free versions for guests who avoid gluten and colour-matched ones for events with a set colour scheme.

Customer Review Summary
Wedding cakes are the main draw, with raspberry and pistachio, lemon and blueberry, and salted caramel tiers singled out as delicious, and couples describing guests who complimented the cake all night. Several mention matching macarons, including gluten-free ones that gluten-free guests loved. Reviewers also praise a two-tier carrot and walnut cake for a baby shower, with buttercream that was not too sweet. One notes these are not cheap cakes but says the quality justifies it. Close behind is the café side, where diners single out the espresso and walnut cake, a flat white, the macarons, and a birthday cake flavoured coffee that tastes like a slice of cake. Brunch and a festive afternoon tea with canapes also earn praise, as does a Neapolitan roulade that recalled Neapolitan ice cream, along with friendly staff who speak Welsh. Several wedding customers say the cake was delivered to the venue, one on the hottest day of the year with no problems.

“Let Them See Cake made my beautiful wedding cake in May 2026. I found them online from Canada, as we travelled to Cardiff for our special day. We filled out the order sheet online and were contacted by the company the next day to confirm the details. They even delivered our cake right to the venue so we didn’t have to worry about that! The cake was raspberry and pistachio flavoured and was truly delectable. The decor was almost too beautiful to eat! Thank you Let Them See Cake!”

“Anhygoel! I was lucky enough to win an afternoon tea for two through an Instagram competition. The team are incredible. So friendly and attentive. The food was amazing. It’s a proper experience. The Neapolitan roulade tasted so much like Neapolitan ice cream, it unlocks childhood memories!!! Bonus that everyone speaks Welsh. Such a lovely atmosphere. Thank you so much 🥰”

“We ordered a 2-tier wedding cake in salted caramel + lemon and blueberry flavours, as well as gluten-free macarons. As well as looking beautiful, it was the best wedding cake we'd ever tasted. Many guests said the same, and the gluten-free guests loved the macarons too. The team were super friendly and helpful. They delivered the cake to the venue on the hottest day of the year with no problems! Diolch o galon ❤️”

“We ordered a cake for a baby shower from LTSC - a 2 tiered carrot and walnut cake in sage green. It was DELICIOUS, probably the best carrot cake I have ever tasted and the buttercream wasn’t too sweet as it often is. We bought some bits to decorate it to finish it off online. Service was amazing, it comes packaged in the most gorgeous box and they gave us tips on serving and storing. I ordered online, gave them a call to see when I could collect it and then collected it on the day - absolutely hassle free. They’re not cheap cakes but you are paying for what you get - quality, beautiful and delicious cakes.”
