Mr Kipling French Fancies Reviews

Yes, he does make exceedingly good cakes, and none more so than the simply French Fancy. Good old Mr Kipling does it again... The humble French Fancy is a tiny sponge cake covered in flavoured fondant icing with a vanilla cream top. The packs by Mr Kipling come in numbers of eight, with three different flavours. A simple bit of maths ...  Read the complete review

I love cakes, & I love convenience, so it goes without saying that I'm rather partial to Mr Kiplings offerings.... one of my faves being the 'French Fancies'. Freanch Fancies come in a brightly coloured box, within which is a tray of 8 little cakes. These cakes comprise a plain cake sponge base, topped with a blob of vanilla creme, ...  Read the complete review

The other day I went on a short hike and a picnic with my boyfriend and he told me he was bringing along a special treat for us. We had our lunch and then he brought out a box of these Mr. Kipling's French Fancies. These are one of his favourite desserts, he told me, and he couldn't wait for me to give them a try. These come in a ...  Read the complete review

Packaging= Pink and lovely cardboard packaging with ingredients and calorific values printed upon it, individual cakes are sitting inside plastic tray which is sealed in ...  Read the complete review

French fancies are those little iced sponge buns with the cream dome top which are favourites for a lot of people and are made by Mr Kipling himself. There made up of a square of sponge, this sponge is just a plain sponge colour and its also really light and tastes really fluffy when you eat it. The sponge square isn't that big though, ...  Read the complete review

I cannot go on enough about how i completely love Mr Kipling products! Maybe its because im on a diet and the thought of eating them thats making my mouth water, but im nearly dribbling over my keyboard! Popular in the marketplace, most people have heard of Mr Kiplings "Exceedingly Good Cakes" and thats exactly what they are. ...  Read the complete review

My mum brought these last week and I loved them even though we've had them before but I've never tried them because I never liked the look of them. You get 8 little square cakes in a box and they are so tasty that I couldn't stop eating them and neither could anyone else in the house and they were gone in a few minutes of opening ...  Read the complete review

French Fancies are not only one of my favourite sweets from Mr Kipling, but one of my favourites, full stop! They're absolutely DELICIOUS, and I don't know anyone that doesn't like these. A packet of Fancies has 8 cake-like treats inside, which are eight square-shaped delights, wrapped individually in paper, just to give them that very debonaire ...  Read the complete review

I was in Iceland recently when we arrived at checkout to pay for our 'trolley load of shopping' (are you listening Mr Tesco, your prices are going up too fast), and my youngest daughter asked if we could put in a box of cakes. They often have different offers at the checkout, usually cakes. These were a £1.00. Like any other soft Dad, I agreed, ...  Read the complete review

Mmmmmmmmm Mr Kipling's French Fancies - delicious!! I would say that you need to have a fairly sweet tooth to enjoy these lovely little cakes and luckily I do! French Fancies have been around for years and I can't see them disappearing any time soon. They remind me of being little - visiting gradparents on Sunday afternoons, running round ...  Read the complete review

MR Kipling might well bake exceedingly good cakes and he might well be one of the best cake makers in all this fine land but I have a theory about him and that theory is that he might be the devil himself. The reason I come to this conclusion is that only the devil could have made something as scarily fattening as the delicious ...  Read the complete review

I've bought Mr Kipling's cakes for many years now & have rarely been disappointed but I have to say that his French Fancies don't do much for me & are my least favourite in the range. I still purchase them though because my daughter loves them & I bought a box yesterday for just £1 in Iceland. I'm not quite sure why they were cheaper ...  Read the complete review

Who doesn't love French Fancies? Well, I do and these are the best available, with a high quality, superior taste and a very nice appearance, these are worth the extra over cheaper alternative brands that can't match the high quality of Mr Kipling. The packaging is very simple and bright, making it easy to notice. The text can be read ...  Read the complete review

My mother is up to her old tricks again. After visiting her house this morning to drop off my parents anniversary card I was literally pounced on as soon as I had stepped through into the door and pushed into the living room and sat down. Before I knew it I had a cup of (decaf) tea thrust upon me along with some Mr Kipling French Fancies. ...  Read the complete review

I have fond memories of Mr Kipling cakes and consider them to be a reliably good cake manufacturer. In particular I enjoy their French Fancies. My husband thinks these are ridiculously sweet, but I disagree, I think they are just right and I am delighted Mr Kipling have made a GIANT version of the pink French Fancie as a birthday cake! ...  Read the complete review

Whenever I used to go round my grandparents' house when I was younger, it would always be filled with delicious food and drinks, like every nanny's house should be, making their grandchildren delighted. Even now when I go round there, they still have boxes and packets of goodies, which neither my nan nor my grandad ever eat themselves, but just ...  Read the complete review

I can't believe I have just worked ny way through a whole box of these in the past hour. Talk about sugar rush! If you haven't encountered these, they are 3 cm sides, small cube shaped sponges with a dimple of fondant on the top. This is all tipped off with a coating of sugar icing, either chocolate, lemon or strawberry. Now these are ...  Read the complete review

Asda was selling these for the special offer price of £1 the other month, so I bought a box - in the name of research and review writing you understand? I used to like these and would eat them often, but since I hadn't bought these for a while would they still be as nice? A box of 8 normally costs about £1.60 so a nice little saving to be had with ...  Read the complete review

Mr Kipling French Fancies cost £1.73 for a packet of 8 cakes. Personally, I think that's a tad on the high side for a supermarket packet of cakes. You can get these freshly made in our local bakery for around 45p each, so you'd think they could mass-produce pre-packaged ones a fair bit cheaper. The taste of these is pretty close to ...  Read the complete review

Mr Kipling cakes, the most well known cake-maker around, has a wide range of cakes and one of these is French Fancies. I have eaten quite a few of their other cakes before such as the mini battenburg so I thought these would be good. They come in a large pink box with the words French Fancies written on them in dark brown swirly ...  Read the complete review
