Best Cake Places in Sunbury-on-Thames

"The original Camden parlour is now back open for fans of Chin Chin’s famous ice creams (churned with the aid of liquid nitrogen for a rich, dense, almost chewy texture.) They are available by the scoop with toppings, but there are also a dozen or so full-on dishes making use of them, from a tiramisu sundae to nachos with chargrilled pineapple, salted-caramel sauce, dark-chocolate ice cream and blue-corn waffle tacos. Open Friday — Sunday, 12 p.m."

"Must try: Griddled vegan cookie dough with burnt butter ice cream. Chin Chin is Europe’s very first liquid nitrogen ice-cream parlour and one of the best spots to discover some of the most unique and delicious desserts in London. Their exciting selection of ice cream flavours are frozen with liquid nitrogen in giant tanks, in a space that looks more like a mad scientists lab than a dessert parlour."

"Restaurants Bakeries Belgravia. Looking pretty in pink, this cute candy-floss emporium from patisserie queen and cake designer extraordinaire Peggy Porschen is an absolute wow – whether you’re purchasing some of her outrageously elaborate confections from the posh boutique or sitting down for cake and a cuppa in her self-styled parlour. There aren’t many tables, so be prepared to wait for your chosen treat – perhaps ‘glorious Victoria’ sponge, dark chocolate truffle cake or something seasonal such as the Easter-themed ‘speckled nest vanilla cloud’ topped with mini chocolate eggs."

"Tucked away in the residential neighbourhood of Belgravia, Peggy Porschen is my all-time favourite bakery in London if we were to base judgements on looks alone. The gorgeous and girly pink bakery is an Instagram photo waiting to happen, and when you step inside you’ll be spoilt for choice with even more pastels and pink!. I’d recommend the sugar cookies for both cuteness and being delicious!"

"Few places in London are as pink, as frilly or as social media friendly as the Peggy Porschen cake shop in London’s Belgravia. Everything tastes just as good as everything looks with the occasion cakes winning on the style and yumminess factor. They also serve a fabulous afternoon tea."

"German-born baker Gerhard Jenne has baked for the likes of Tina Turner and the Rolling Stones. At his London bakery Konditor & Cook, you can get stuck into his superb Mittel-European influenced creations. Celebrating its 25th anniversary this year, you can now find six dotted across the capital, serving up a range of treats from deliciously indulgent brownies to a jaw-dropping, best-selling Curly Whirly cake, which features a Belgian chocolate centre, lavishly coated in cream cheese and vanilla bean frosting."

"There are plenty of places in London to get seriously good cake – just take a look at our tips for the best bakeries and cupcake connoisseurs in the capital for proof. Konditor, however, really takes the biscuit. Its signature, best-selling Curly Whirly cake is not exactly inspired by the chocolate bar of the same name, but it inspires similar levels of childish delight: Belgian chocolate is melted into the sponge for richness, before the whole thing is slathered in cream cheese and vanilla bean frosting."

"Konditor & Cook brownies were the first brownies I tried in London, and since then I have a very high bar for brownies. These brownies are exceptional. My absolute favorite is the Boston Brownie with tangy cranberries."

To this date, Headstone Manor is still surrounded by a moat, which is the only surviving moat with water in it in all of Middlesex."

"The Honourable Artillery Company Museum opened in 1987; it then closed and underwent a complete rebuild. The Duke of Edinburgh reopened the museum in 2011. The collection is dedicated to the Honourable Artillery Company and includes uniforms, silver, medals, weapons, equipment, art, and armour dating back to the 1530s with a special emphasis on the 1600s and 1700s militia."

"This historic warship, operated today by Imperial War Museums, will definitely be of interest to military buffs, or anyone with even a slight interest in boats. Launched just before the outbreak of World War 2, this Royal Navy Light Cruiser saw action in both World War 2 and the Korean War, before being decommissioned in 1963."

"I wonder how many of those souls queuing for hours to enter Westminster Abbey have ever broken away to venture inside this fascinating Westminster church. St Margaret’s Church Westminster is located in the churchyard of the Abbey,and is often called the ‘parish church of the House of Commons’. It is often frequented by politicians and parliamentarians, and the connection dates back to the 17th century when Puritan MPs started to worship there as they disapproved of the style of worship in Westminster Abbey."

"The parish church of Parliament is next to Westminster Abbey. Samuel Pepys got wed here and Sir Walter Raleigh is buried in the yard"

"St Mary Woolnoth was said to have been founded originally by Wulfnoth, a Saxon noble, on a Roman Temple to Concord. The church is famous among architects. It was built by Nicholas Hawksmoor in 1716-1721."

"This bizarre looking Anglican church was designed by Hawksmoor – his only City of London church. The original dated back to Norman times"

"St Sepulchre is dominated by its grey 15th century Gothic tower. Captain John Smith, the famous Governor of Virginia, rescued by Pocahontas, was buried here in 1631. But St Sepulchre also has darker associations."

"Nestled in Battersea Park, this Children’s Zoo may not exactly be big, but that’s part of its charm. They house a range of mammals, reptiles and birds, from farm to smaller exotics animals. With various feeding times, picnic and play areas and children’s rides, this zoo is especially good for the little ones."

"Battersea Park Children's Zoo is home to a host of farmyard animals, flamingos, otters and monkeys. Battersea Park, London, SW11 4NJ. Tube: Sloane Square Station"
