NH Collection Colombo Cakes in Sri Lanka: Prices & Picks

TL;DR: NH Collection Colombo’s cake line on Kapruka splits into chocolate cakes (Rs 8,650 to Rs 16,640) and cheesecakes (Rs 10,110 to Rs 12,400), plus a few standalone sponge flavors, with delivery available throughout Sri Lanka. Compare weight and finish, not just price, before you order.

Why does it matter which NH Collection cake you pick?

NH Collection Colombo is one of several hotel-bakery lines Kapruka carries inside its wider cakes catalogue, alongside brands like Courtyard by Marriott and Cinnamon Grand. The NH Collection Colombo cakes on Kapruka listing sells the hotel’s cakes online rather than only through the hotel’s own front desk or kitchen order line.

Chocolate cakes and cheesecakes photograph similarly on a category page, but they differ in base, finish and price band. Picking on photo alone is the easiest way to end up with the wrong texture for the occasion — a dense baked cheesecake instead of a lighter sponge, or the other way round.

In my time going through Kapruka’s cakes catalogue, buyers in this category are usually ordering for a specific date — a birthday, an anniversary, a small office send-off — and want the safest pick for the group size, not necessarily the priciest one on the page.

What’s the price and flavor breakdown for NH Collection cakes on Kapruka?

Twelve items on the category page carry a confirmed price as of this writing. One further item, the Cappuccino Cake, is listed by name without a fixed price shown — check the live listing for that one before you commit.

Are the NH Collection chocolate cakes the safer first pick?

Yes, for most first-time orders. Six of the twelve confirmed items are chocolate-based, spanning Rs 8,650 to Rs 16,640, so there’s a price point at nearly every budget. The NH Collection Colombo cake selection page lists all six by name, from the Eggless Chocolate Cake at the low end to the Classic Chocolate Cake at the top.

The Eggless Chocolate Cake (Rs 8,650) suits an egg-free preference without paying the Rs 13,380 the Gluten Free Chocolate Cake costs — that one is a genuinely separate recipe for gluten intolerance, not just an egg swap, which is why the price gap is larger than it first looks. Black Forest (Rs 10,110) and Strawberry Chocolate Cake (Rs 10,930) sit close together and are the two fruit-finished options in the range. The Classic Chocolate Cake at Rs 16,640 is the single highest-priced item in the whole category, priced above every cheesecake on the page.

What makes the NH Collection cheesecakes different from the chocolate cakes?

The three cheesecakes run a tighter band, Rs 10,110 to Rs 12,400, and use a baked cheesecake base rather than a sponge — texture is the real differentiator here, not price. The Pineapple Up And Down Cheesecake (Rs 10,110) and Newyork Baked Cheesecake (Rs 10,770) sit within Rs 660 of each other, while the Toasted Marshmallow S’mores Cheesecake (Rs 12,400) is the most distinct by flavor of the three.

Compared with the chocolate cakes, where the top and bottom prices are almost Rs 8,000 apart, the cheesecake range spans under Rs 2,300. That makes flavor preference, not budget, the deciding factor once you’ve settled on wanting a cheesecake over a sponge cake.

Which NH Collection cake should you order?

Choose the Red Velvet Cake (Rs 7,830) or Eggless Chocolate Cake (Rs 8,650) if budget is the main constraint — both sit under Rs 9,500 and are the two lowest-priced confirmed items. Choose one of the three cheesecakes if the occasion calls for a denser, less traditionally “cake-like” dessert; the Toasted Marshmallow S’mores Cheesecake is worth the extra cost if you want a flavor that stands out rather than a familiar one. Choose the Classic Chocolate Cake or Carrot Cake for a bigger celebration where a larger, more established profile matters more than price.

Ordering a hotel-bakery cake isn’t unique to this brand — the same logic applies to the Courtyard by Marriott cakes guide, another hotel-bakery line Kapruka carries: match by weight and finish, not just the flavor name, since two items can sound similar and turn out to be different sizes.

A customer once messaged asking for “the cheesecake with the caramelised topping” from NH Collection for a colleague’s farewell the next day, without knowing the product name. Going through the category page’s photos against the confirmed items, it turned out to be the Toasted Marshmallow S’mores Cheesecake at Rs 12,400 rather than the Newyork Baked Cheesecake, since the marshmallow topping matched the description and the Newyork option doesn’t carry a caramelised finish. Matching by description against the listed flavor name, rather than guessing from memory, is usually the fastest way to identify the right cake in this catalogue.

What mistakes do people make when ordering NH Collection cakes online?

• Assuming delivery is Colombo-only. It isn’t — Kapruka states on the category page that it delivers cakes throughout Sri Lanka, including Colombo, not just within the city.
• Judging by price band alone. Three items — Black Forest Cake, Ribbon Cake and the Pineapple Up And Down Cheesecake — all list at Rs 10,110, but they’re a chocolate cake, a plain sponge and a cheesecake respectively. Check the name and type, not just the number.
• Ordering the Cappuccino Cake without checking current price. It’s the one item on the page without a fixed price shown at the time of writing.
• Waiting until the delivery date to order. Hotel-bakery items still need normal processing time; ordering the same morning you need the cake cuts your delivery window close, especially outside Colombo.
• Confusing an NH Collection item with a similarly-named cake elsewhere in Kapruka’s own bakery range. The NH Collection name on the listing is what confirms it’s this specific hotel line rather than Kapruka’s in-house version of the same flavor.

FAQ

How much do NH Collection Colombo cakes cost on Kapruka?
Prices run from Rs 7,830 for the Red Velvet Cake up to Rs 16,640 for the Classic Chocolate Cake, with most items priced between Rs 10,000 and Rs 13,000. One item, the Cappuccino Cake, is listed without a confirmed price at the time of writing.

What’s the difference between the NH Collection chocolate cakes and cheesecakes?
The chocolate cakes use a sponge base and span a wide price range, Rs 8,650 to Rs 16,640. The cheesecakes use a baked base, sit in a narrower Rs 10,110 to Rs 12,400 band, and differ mainly by topping rather than price.

Does Kapruka deliver NH Collection cakes outside Colombo?
Yes. Kapruka’s own category page states that cake delivery covers all of Sri Lanka, not just Colombo, though same-day availability still depends on the site’s daily cut-off time for your specific delivery address.

Is the NH Collection Gluten Free Chocolate Cake the same recipe as the Eggless Chocolate Cake?
No. They’re two separate recipes at two different prices — Rs 13,380 for the gluten-free version against Rs 8,650 for the egg-free version — which is why gluten intolerance and egg preference need different cakes here, not one cake that covers both.

Can I get same-day delivery for an NH Collection cake?
Same-day delivery is available on this category, subject to ordering before the site’s daily cut-off time for your address. Outstation addresses are safer with a day’s advance notice, the same as with Kapruka’s other hotel-bakery cake lines.

Choosing between two similar-looking cakes? Weight and base, not just the photo, is the fastest way to tell an NH Collection chocolate cake from a cheesecake. See the full NH Collection Colombo cakes on Kapruka listing for current prices and availability.
