Ordering from overseas

Send Cakes to Lahore

Away from home? Order from anywhere in the world and we will deliver a freshly baked cake to your family in Lahore — often the same day.

Sending a cake to Lahore from another country

If you live abroad and want to mark a birthday, anniversary or graduation back home, you do not need anyone in Lahore to arrange it for you. Place the order yourself, give us the recipient's address and the date, and we handle the rest.

Unlike international gift portals that forward your order to whichever bakery is available, we bake every cake ourselves at Firdous Market. That means you know exactly who is making the cake, and we can send you a photo of it before it goes out for delivery.

How it works

The whole process takes a few minutes and does not require a Pakistani phone number:

  • Browse the catalogue and choose a cake, weight and flavour
  • Enter the recipient's address in Lahore and the delivery date
  • Add a message for the card — we write it out and attach it to the box
  • Pay online, or send payment details over WhatsApp if you prefer
  • We confirm the order, share a photo of the finished cake, and deliver

Time zones and timing your order

Pakistan Standard Time is UTC+5. If you want a cake to arrive on a particular day in Lahore, work backwards from PKT rather than your local time — this is the single most common mistake with overseas orders.

For a midnight birthday surprise in Lahore, place the order at least a day ahead. The table below shows roughly when to order from common time zones for a same-day Lahore delivery.

Popular occasions for overseas orders

The orders we receive from abroad cluster around a few moments — and in almost every case the cake is standing in for someone who wishes they could be there in person.

  • Birthdays for parents and grandparents still living in Lahore
  • Wedding anniversaries, often with a photo cake of the original wedding picture
  • Graduation and exam-result celebrations for younger siblings
  • Eid and Ramadan gifts sent to the wider family
  • New baby congratulations
  • Get-well and sympathy cakes when you cannot travel back

Payment from abroad

You can pay by card online at checkout. If your card is blocked for international merchants — which happens occasionally with Pakistani gateways — message us on WhatsApp and we will arrange an alternative, including bank transfer or payment through a family member locally.

Prices are shown in Pakistani Rupees. A typical one to two pound birthday cake is Rs 1,500 to 3,000, which is a small amount in most foreign currencies but buys a genuinely custom cake here.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I send a cake to Lahore from the UK or USA?
Yes. Order online from anywhere in the world, enter the recipient's Lahore address, and pay by card. You do not need a Pakistani phone number or bank account, and we will send you a photo of the finished cake before delivery.
How do I make sure the cake arrives on the right day?
Pakistan is UTC+5, so work out the delivery date in Pakistan Standard Time rather than your local time. If you are in North America, that usually means ordering the day before the date you have in mind.
Can I include a personal message with the cake?
Yes — add it at checkout and we will write it on a card and attach it to the box. You can also have a short message piped onto the cake itself at no extra cost.
Will you tell me when the cake has been delivered?
Yes. We message you on WhatsApp when the cake leaves the bakery and again once it has been handed over, so you know it arrived even if the recipient is busy celebrating.
What if my card is declined for an international payment?
Some overseas cards are blocked by Pakistani payment gateways. If that happens, message us on WhatsApp — we can take payment by bank transfer or arrange for someone locally to settle it, and your order slot is held in the meantime.
