Why trust us?

Sitting in the sunshine, sipping a gin and tonic – it’s one of the things that makes summer, summer. But what happens when you’re starting to get hungry for a refreshing snack right at gin o’clock? It’s exactly the right time for a gin and tonic cake! Fresh raspberries collide with Lyre’s Dry London Spirit. And the whole thing gets a bubbly flavor from our refreshing Wild Berry Energy Aminos. It’s a high-protein, refreshing cake with little sugar. We can promise you that this cake will catapult straight to the highlight of your next picnic in the park! We’ve made what’s called a poke cake. After it’s baked, you poke holes in the cake and drizzle more flavorful liquid over it. The holes ensure that the gin will make its way all the way through the cake, keep it moist, and cause an absolute flavor explosion!
