Reviews of THE THREE WORDS | Cakes & Flowers
V.
Yum yum yum yum yum! These guys make the BEST macarons that arent overly sweet and are just super delicious! The new location is bigger and definitely easier to find parking at!
L.
This Bakery caters for all occasions!
My go to sugar rush fix.
My favoured products are the 18 assorted flavoured macarons and 12 assorted flavoured cup cakes.
I’m salivating as I write each delectable morsel is flavoured, created and packaged to perfection.
Once tasted that feel good feeling is satisfied.
Relocated to Williamson Ave Ponsonby an amazingly sophisticated larger space with the most amazing customer service, online ordering available.
Most Definitely “WORTH” the work out later!
D.
Best macaroons and cakes in New Zealand!
I ordered cupcakes and a cake during alert level 3.
Every cupcakes look beautiful and taste good as well. Especially Rose flavor.
Love all desserts from THE THREE WORDS. : )
I.
Love this place! The staff know what real service is and their gluten free cakes not only look amazing but taste even better. Their plum gluten free cake is the best gluten free cake I've ever had - moist, light and very moreish! Don't look any further if you need a cake for a special occasion. And you can get a lovely bouquet to go with it! Perfect.
B.
You are able to pick up macarons, cakes or cupcakes from their counter. I walked in and picked a few cupcakes. You are able to order online if you are more organised. The double chocolate cupcake was so rich and tasty. The Matcha one was quite mild though.
A friend gave me some of their macarons. They were really tasty. I liked the chewy texture of the macaron under the crunchy shell. The flavours were all quite interesting. It was nice that the macarons came with a picture card of the flavours so I knew which one I was eating. The earl grey one was surprisingly good.
Edit: They have move from the city into Ponsonby. There are quite a few parking spaces outside the store. The now sell a party pack which has both cupcakes and macaron so you're able to try a larger range of their products. Its probably best to order online if you were wantint to try a specific flavour. They were all quite tasty and flavourful.
T.
Beautiful and delicious, not too sweet and can really taste the flavours of each.
X.
The best service in town. I bought a cake for my boyfriend under his parents' name to surprise him and thanks to the lovely owner with his dedicated suggest, my boyfriend's birthday was fantastic. The cake looked absolutely stunning and the flavor is extraordinarily yummy. The owner delivered the cake himself and even instructed my boyfriend how to open the cake box properly. Highly Recommended !!!
D.
Had the chocolate cupcake and it was kinda disappointing. Paid $5.5 for a dried up cupcake...
the macaroons looked okay. I just think there aren’t many interesting flavours, just your basics flavour/ flavour combination. For that price and okay quality- not worth getting the cupcakes in my opinion. Giving 4 stars because service was super friendly.
L.
The three words could be “best macarons ever”. They are to die for, you haven’t lived until you try these macarons. They do the correct ratio of 1:1:1, with the most flavourful centres. My favourites are lemon, cookies & cream, and chocolate. Though to be honest I love all of them. You should try the raspberry, matcha, blueberry, earl grey, salted caramel, passionfruit, pistachio… oops I might’ve named most of them, and still missed a few I love.
We haven’t even started on the rest of what The Three Words sells, they also offer flowers and cakes and cupcakes. I think I actually died when I first tried one of the cakes - it was just your classic chocolate but it was so much more. I actually envy you lucky people who are yet to be converts, once you try this place, your life will forever be changed. I can’t do justice with photos I take (although to be honest the macarons get eaten well before a photo could be taken), so please check their website for photos!
The Three Words, I love you.
R.
Absolutely divine macarons! The packaging is amazing too! Their delivery service is great and the staff are kind and generous. Would recommend for gifts and treats.
M.
Very professional, Brian obviously sets high standards for his business. He informed me that due to a batch of macaroons looking less than perfect he wanted to check if okay to swap out the flavour. He was very apologetic despite me getting a better deal, more flavours why not?! Communication was great, I wasn't expecting to be emailed a picture of the final product and it looked so lovely I was kinda jealous that I wasn't the one recieving it! Thanks so much Brian!
L.
I must say this is the BEST cakes and macaroons place in town!! Had their macaroons before and today tried their vegan raw cake and it’s absolutely delicious, rich and creamy. Brian’s so nice and kind and considerate for writing the card for my friend. Thank you so much!! I would recommend all my friends to your place for these lovely sweets:)
A.
Lovely cake, not so sweet. The cake had a nice rich texture-due to almond. Could easily be a tea party cake too. Overall a pleasant experience in store. Thank you.
V.
The BEST BEST BEST macarons I’ve ever had!!! I like all the flavors and can not wait to share it to more people. All my friends love it!
K.
Omg they have the best Macaroons and New Zealand
T.
I highly recommend everything they have to offer! 10/10 for quality, customer service and everything else. I'm usually not a fan of macaroons but Three Words is the only place I will happily buy one from to eat. I received an amazing bouquet of flowers delivered by one of their owners and the flowers were absolutely stunning! I wish them all the best with their business!
H.
Thank you Brian and Hayley for supplying us with a special cake recently. Your presentation is superb and the cake was thoroughly enjoyed by all, almost too pretty to eat! We also appreciated your gracious and personal service.
k.
It’s such a fantastic experiment when you come to The Three Words. This is the 3rd time I ordered the cake with this shop and their service as well as the cake quality have never failed me.
J.
Terrific cupcakes! They arrived beautifully displayed in a very sophisticated box that builds big expectations! On opening the box the cupcakes are individual works of art. I've now got HUGE expectations of taste; will they taste anything like as good as they look? I'm doubtful. But bold flavours, each unique and as fresh as if I'd baked them myself. Wonderful. Such a great job by Brian and his team. And uncommonly friendly and accommodating service! Totally made my day. 10/10 to the Three Words!
K.
What an Excellent Cake and Service. I was a bit hesitant as I had not heard to Three Words before and the photos of the cakes looked a little too good to be true. However, right from the start I was impressed as I rang to check if there were any nuts in the cake I was thinking of getting. They put the pastry chef on the phone who walked me through the menu and advised which had no nuts or almond flour. I then placed my order online and got another call the next day just to confirm that they would make sure the cake was made in a nut free environment as well. I set the pick up time at 10.30am and at noon had a call to remind me the cake was waiting for me and what time would we be eating it as it should have 4 hours out of the fridge to be at its best! I went in a couple of hours later and they walked the cake out to me while I double parked [They are at the library end of Lorne Street in apart that I did not even know was Lorne Street]. We had a two layer passion fruit and coconut cake and the 10 that enjoyed it for the birthday celebration were as impressed of the way it looked as much as it's taste and texture. The restaurant was great as they split the layers to serve it and left us with the whole top layer to go home with. The single layer was enough for our 10 after a large dinner. So an excellent find and nut free to boot!
M.
I chose the dark chocolate and coffee cake for my partners birthday. Looked amazing and tasted so good. Got so many compliments. Would definitely order again. Thank you so much!
B.
Always stop by a get macaroons when nearby. Strawberry & Vanilla are my favourites so far, but making my way through the others.
Strongly recommended, also the cupcakes are amazing! I don't normally like cupcakes but these are awesome. Staff is lovely and knowledgable.
Definitely come by, I don't write many review but when I do it's because the place is awesome.
S.
Great experience and the owner stayed on the phone with me to go through the process of making an order and have it delivered. He was patient and very helpful!
w.
Tasty macarons that are not too sweet but their sizes has literally become 3/4 of what they were...6 macarons used to fill the whole box without any gaps but now you can pretty much fit 7 macarons..
D.
Great customer service and really delicious cupcakes.
G.
Ordered the 6 pack of cupcakes in different flavours, they were all delicious and looked beautiful. Very friendly staff too. Would definitely order again and recommend :)
S.
Went there to have desserts for breakfast, because why not?
Delicious flavors of macrons and cupcakes. And the packaging is lovely and simple. I like how they give a little menu for the all the flavors they provide and a little storage guide for macrons.
L.
Ordered a cake here for the first time. The matcha cake looked and tasted amazing! The icing was perfectly done, not overly sweet like some places do. Would definitely order again.
P.
Very yummy. Order it yesterday before fly back to Christchurch. It’s all gone now wanna get another box. 😅
L.
the best. macarons. in Auckland. Period. or at least, the best in CBD for sure. the ratio of buttercream and macaron biscuit is immaculate. the flavour is rich and natural, not artificial or stale at all. you know when you taste badly-made buttercream, it tastes sticky and oily, and it feels like the fat is separating from sugar, and it leaves that filmy, disgusting feeling over your tongue? TTW's macarons are anything but that. the sweetness isn't too strong, just enough to make you feel pleasant and craving for more. sure the price might be higher than other macaron places but it sure is worth it. i went there around 12pm on Saturday, came back after 3 hours with a friend only to find them all gone. they're THAT good. if you're planning to get some macarons, get them here but make sure to go early so you won't miss out all the popular flavours! my personal fav is rose and pistachio, would recommend 100/10!!!!

Very well packed, great customer service and heavenly tasting cakes. Highly recommend this place.
A.
Simply incredible! Was so helpful for a same day delivery and was very much appreciated. Highly Recommended
P.
Exemplary service and the Lemon & Elderflower cake was definitely one of the best I've ever eaten!
So beautifully presented and the word topper with beautiful gold candle are a lovely addition.
Very highly recommended! True perfection
A.
I don't really know where to start and please excuse my english as its not perfect😅.
I am from Vancouver,Canada and I ordered a cake with flowers for my best friend on his birthday who is in Auckland.
I almost forgot his birthday so I was already late but Mr. Brian made it all possible right on time.
He is absolutely amazing amazing person and the way he deal with his customers is worth praising.
I truly admire his patience and sincerity towards his job.
I would truly recommend this place for great service and very tasty cakes along with beautiful fresh flowers and customized cake toppers.
Thank You Brian for your great help, patience and beautiful advices in selecting cake and gift for my friend.
He loved it.
Thank you once again
L.
The macaron filling is too thick/creamy for me and they are a bit big, but many people may like this as I’m used to different kinds. Raspberry and white chocolate was the best flavour. Absolutely lovely service from the man behind the counter.
K.
Ordered from there twice now. Friendly and professional. I sent a raw matcha cake for my cousin's birthday. I received follow up photos of what was delivered. Beat expectations on the service and the macarons are delightful.
T.
Cant believe how awesome these guys are- i called 230ish yesterday and asked if they could get a cake through to me before lunch - and they did- they went above and beyond and i would totally recommend them to all!! and the cake is super yummy!
d.
Tasty and beautiful cake and cupcakes. And amazing service even on a public holiday. I would highly recommend this business esp in light that other, more popular, cake shops would not deliver on public holidays. Thank you to the team!
H.
Love this Macarons and cakes so much💕 My mum and I always pick up these sweets every our visit to town! Staff are also very kind. I will definitely try the newest cake soon!
A.
Go extra for the customer. Best services in town. Beautiful food. I will recommend to everyone else..
M.
We could not have been any more blown away than we were!! Its one thing for a cake & macrons to look stunningly beautiful, but its another when they taste just as good (actually amazing!). We're fussy cake eaters & everything about our experience at The Three Words was seamless. I couldn't recommend them enough! We'll be ordering again, no questions asked!
Thank you so much X

Best ever macaron in my life.. Even $4.8 each, it completely worthy. Try everything!!
A.
Highly recommend this place! The best desserts in Auckland! Especially the baked cheesecake. Not really into sweet desserts as too many are just way too sweet but THIS place makes the sweetness of their desserts just right. Perfect! Service is great too! 😁👍🏼
R.
Omg what a cake it was.... Rose and pistachio... Thank you so so much team. I request them to deliver early. They took so much efforts to deliver it on time. The cake is so delicious. Thank you so much. Very happy customer🥰😊🥰
A.
Awesome service and very friendly.
Seems like they take every order personally and want to make it a memorable one for the client!
Great work team! 😊
R.
Thrilled with the service, beautiful arrangement, unique and delicious cake, and even better service. I had to reschedule the delivery last minute to keep the surprise and these guys delivered. I can not thank you enough for the memories.
S.
I found my favourite place for macaron. I like macaron but always hesitated because I don't like too sugary. It was definitely a hard choice on the macaron because of their size, but OH Boy, I don't regret what I chose. So delicious but not too SWEET like other macaron. What a treasure this place is. I will order macaron and cakes soon again.
A.
Ordered the chocolate cake which was absolutely beautiful and went back to order the cupcakes which were also amazing! Thank you 😊

[Matcha Green Tea Raw Cake - vegan]
haven't tasted the cake yet but i'm already upset for the inconsistent reply from the cake shop.
Few days ago i asked on their FB page, if the matcha green tea raw cake comes with edible flowers on top and the shop owner (Brian) replied Yes.
When calling and order the cake today, i confirm about the "edible flower" again and the staff answer that all cakes (vegan & baked) only come with normal fresh flowers.
Feel disappointed form the false hope given just few days ago.
Will update the review after tasting the matcha green tea raw cake.
Hope the cake quality won't bring me another disappointment and
the cake can help bring themselves back for a few more stars back.
... to be con't

Updated Below
-
The reason why i didn't ask to talk to the shop owner for clarification when the shop staff told us different reply is that ... it's not me but my friend helping me to order and pick up the cake. I don't want to further bother my friend and ask my friend to argue/fight with the shop for the edible flower.
Finally i got the cake picked up and have it finished with friends.
[Pros]
- nice packing box and presentation
- the 5 inch cake is small but the texture is dense enough to feed 4 adults.
- during pickup, the shop said sorry and actively gave us a free green tea macaroon as apology for the miscommunication mentioned above. thank you Brain.
[Cons]
- The green tea is weak if you are a matcha green tea lover. This may be due to the limitation of a vegan cake.
- the cake is a bit pricy when considering $50 for the 5 inch size
[Conclusion]
- my wife, who is a keen green tea lover, still prefers the japanese shop "TSUJIRI" in city CBD. Their cake is more expensive $76 but much bigger in size and with much stronger green tea.
- if you are only looking for any cake (not green tea) with great presentation, try "house of chocolate" in takapuna and you won't be disappointed.
- the green tea macaroon is the highlight & surprise. we all four people agreed that it tastes better than the green tea raw cake.
H.

(Translated) It was here "The Three Words Cakes & Flowers" that shocked me to wipe out my concept of macaroons. Until then, macaroons for me were just colored, sweet lumps. I didn't think it was particularly delicious, and sometimes it was an unpleasant candy that stuck to my teeth depending on what was sandwiched between them. However, the three words macaroons were completely different. Each macaron brought out the original taste that was completed, and it was not only colorful but also original in taste. The sweetness that is just right is exquisite, not too crunchy or too harsh. My personal recommendation is the "Earl Gray Tea" macaroons. As a variant, "Real Banana" was also a shocking gem. The colorful and gorgeous macaron set is a perfect birthday gift for your friends.
The store in front of the CBD library moved to Ponsonby on February 9, 2022. It may be easier to park the car and it may be better 😚 It is a highly recommended store ♪

自分のマカロンの概念を一掃させる衝撃が走ったのがここ「The Three Words Cakes &Flowers」だ。それまで自分にとってのマカロンはただ色がついた激甘な塊だった。特に美味しいとも思わなかったし、時には間に挟まった物によっては歯にこびりつく嫌なお菓子だった。ところがThree Wordsのマカロンは全く違っていた。それぞれのマカロンが完成されたオリジナルの味を醸し出し、色鮮やかなだけで無く味の独創性があった。歯触りやクドすぎない丁度いい甘さは絶妙。個人的なオススメは「Earl Grey Tea」のマカロン。変わり種としては「Real Banana」も衝撃の逸品だった。色鮮やかで華やかなマカロンセットは友達の誕生日ギフトにぴったりです。
CBDの図書館前にあったお店が2022年2月9日にポンソンビーに移転。車が停めやすくなって良くなったかも😚 凄くオススメの店です♪

(Translated) Its just infront of the Central Library, across the road of Civic theater.
It offers beautiful yet delicious desserts, lovely flowers. For this valentines day I ordered a special package which contains mini cup cakes, macaron and a rose. My wife loved it.
She said the macarons were especially wonderful, in fact she said it was better than what she had in Paris.If you are fan of these you should definately try this place.
Dessert and flower shop in front of Auckland Central Library.
Give your wife a gift on Valentine's Day and score a lot of sweat.
My wife said that this house tastes better than the famous macaroons I ate in France
Very recommended if you like desserts
