Cakes, Scones & Bakes in Inverness
Is there anything better than a slice of homemade cake or a warm scone paired with a great cup of coffee? Discover our daily selection of fresh bakes and why they are the perfect afternoon companion.
A proper sweet treat is one of life's simple joys, and a good cafe knows it. Whether you fancy a slice of sponge cake to round off lunch or a freshly baked scone to go with your afternoon tea, our bakery counter is a core part of the Rendezvous experience.
Homemade Cakes
There is something inherently comforting about a homemade cake. At Rendezvous, our selection changes regularly, meaning there is always a new reason to pop in and see what is sitting on the counter. Made with care, our cakes are the kind of treat that turns a quick coffee break into a proper moment of indulgence.
Because our bakers like to mix things up, it is always worth asking our staff about the daily specials when you visit. From rich chocolate sponges to lighter Victoria sponges, you never quite know what delicious creation will be waiting. We also ensure that gluten-free options are regularly available so nobody misses out.
Traditional Warm Scones
The scone is a Scottish teatime classic. Served either plain or packed with fruit, our scones arrive at the table warm, accompanied by plenty of butter and sweet jam. For those looking for that extra traditional touch, you can add cream.
Warm, comforting, and deeply satisfying, a good scone is the heart of a proper afternoon treat. It pairs beautifully with a pot of loose-leaf tea or a freshly poured coffee. The scone holds a special place in Scottish baking, offering a simple pleasure that hits the spot every single time.
Something Different: CBD Bakes
One thing that truly sets our cake counter apart from other cafes in the city is our CBD range. Alongside our traditional offerings, we bake CBD Chocolate Brownies, Blondies, and Flapjacks.
These bakes offer a relaxing twist on the classic sweet treat, bringing together the indulgence of a homemade cake with the calming properties of cannabidiol. They are a lovely way to unwind alongside your afternoon coffee or tea, and all of our CBD products strictly meet UK legal requirements.
The Perfect Coffee Companion
A sweet treat is only ever at its best when paired with a great cup of coffee. Thankfully, our coffee is taken just as seriously as our baking. Recently named one of the Top 5 coffee shops in Inverness by The Times, our baristas pour everything from smooth flat whites to bold Americanos.
If you prefer a hot dessert over a cake slice, our kitchen also serves warm stacked pancakes and Belgian waffles topped with Nutella, honey, maple syrup, or ice cream. Whether you prefer the comfort of cake, the warmth of a scone, or the indulgence of a waffle stack, we have something to satisfy every sweet tooth.
