The shop’s cakes have been one of their bestsellers since they were discovered. The sponge is fluffy, and the filling is tasty and creamy enough to make your toes curl up excitedly.
Because their cakes differ in price and design, Woolworths introduced a tinier version of their signature baked treat to accommodate different people with different interests in cakes. They’ve started using a smaller pan to bake their cakes and priced them at R100 each.
Consumers were excited about the new addition until they checked it out in-store. Many were disappointed, including Bonele Phala, a woman who had high hopes for her purchase.
Phala shared her disappointment on TikTok and captioned her post:
“Woolworths played us here, the size of this cake in person? Its sooo small.”

Social media users shared their thoughts in the comments about Woolworths new cake addiction:
@Vati reminded the lady:
"But you saw the size before you paid for that muffin."
@hulisani_HulZ was confused as to why the lady complained about a cake she bought:
"So it looked bigger in store?"
@Miss_T explained that:
"Nothing wrong with the size, that’s the size of bento cakes. The problem is the price. R100 considering that their normal size chocolate cake is R130 is a rip off."
@MrsVatnSit backed away from the cake:
"I went to Woolies planning to buy it but as soon I saw the size, I reversed out of the store."
