Best Cake Places in Woodford

"From creating a nitro ice cream parlour in Camden to collaborating with Cadbury to create a Creme Egg Sundae, Chin Chin know how to make weird and wacky ice creams. But it’s their Soho joint that we love, where they mix luxe chocolate and caramel flavour ice-creams with cakes, cookies and ice-cream sandwiches. There’s always a bunch of toppings and sauces to pick from, and with a wide variety of vegan options as well, there’s something for everyone here."

"Restaurants Ice-cream parlours Soho. Those nitro-fuelled experimentalists at Chin Chin are the Willy Wonkas of the ice-cream world, and this Soho shop is an ostentatious showcase for their wares. Not only their signature ices (anyone for halva black tahini?), but also full-on desserts – there’s some seriously elaborate stuff going on here amid all the bells and whistles."

"The sweet treats get scientific at Chin Chin Labs, where all the ice cream is hand-churned with liquid nitrogen. Its short but inventive menu of regular flavours includes tonka bean and burnt butter caramel, with an array of topping options including bee pollen honeycomb and truffle crumble."

"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."

"Possibly the original Instagram cafe, this place has become Insta-famous, renowned for its epic floral displays and fabulous cupcakes. The popularity of Peggy Porschen has even led to them opening a second cafe on King’s Road in Chelsea. Not only is this adorable pink cafe absolute Instagram heaven, Peggy Porschen cakes and coffee are also delicious."

"There’s no doubt you will have seen this Belgravia café pop up on your Insta feed. With a façade as pretty pink as their buttercream icing, Peggy Porschen is a celebration of all this unashamedly cute and girly. Order cakes online or head to their outpost for the cakes… and for the ‘gram."

"Gerhard Jenne developed a taste for the sweet stuff growing up in Freiburg, Germany, inspired by his mother’s baking. He trained as a pastry chef – or konditor – in Munich, before heading to London, where he made a name for himself creating cakes for the rich and famous – Tina Turner and the Rolling Stones were among his clientele. In 1993, Jenne set up his own bakery in Waterloo: Konditor & Cook, which went on to become one of London’s best cake makers."

"Celebrating 25 years of moist bakes, Konditor & Cook is one of London’s most beloved cake shop chains. Providing not only rich, delicious cakes that are baked using the finest natural ingredients, Konditor & Cook offers a range of indulgent brownies, decedent tarts and delightfully naughty biscuits. Celebrity endorsed and as fun as it is mouth-watering, this should be on everyone’s culinary bucket list."

"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."

"The go-to destination for those looking for some tasty plant-based pancakes, Megan's serve up their signature dish of vegan pancakes with chia yoghurt, maple syrup and pistachios for Shrove Tuesday. Known for their Insta'-ready interiors and pup-friendly policy, the London-wide restaurants are perfect for a mid-morning munch."

"If you're looking to update your Insta-feed with a few beautiful food snaps in a pretty restaurant, look no further than Megan's. A favourite among celebrities and bloggers, the restaurant boasts beautiful interiors paired with equally tantalising food offerings."

"For Those Cake Moments specialises in buttercream cakes that can be customised and personalised following the design that you have in mind. In the business for more than 5 years now, they have been delivering soft, delicious and tasty creations that everyone will enjoy. You can choose from different buttercream flavours like chocolate, cheese and vanilla."

"Found just outside London Designer Outlet, their lush desserts and heavenly drinks will curb that sweet tooth in no time."

"HammersmithOK, so Brewdog SheBu isn’t technically a brewery. Its house beers are made off-site – in Ellon in Aberdeenshire and Tower Bridge – but have always been top-notch and trailblazing, so we’re sneaking it in anyway. Taste your way around 40 taps (though maybe not all in one night), plus guest beers: just ask for a flight."

"Soho stalwart Quo Vadis had been delighting customers since 1926, and even more so now with head chef Jeremy Lee’s innovative dishes. Expect punchy pasties, super-fresh seafood platters and retro takes on classics (try the pie and mash). Address: Quo Vadis, 26-29 Dean Street, Soho, London W1D 3LLWebsite:quovadissoho.co.ukOpen: Monday 17 May"

"Everyone seems out for a good time at this intimate, 23-seater restaurant. The food is regional, seasonal, and thoroughly British, from suet-crusted pie and mash to deviled kid-liver skewers. The wine list is lengthy, and the cocktail menu offers punchy house creations alongside classics."

"Chef Jeremy Lee’s seasonal British and Mediterranean menus — spanning pies, salads, and old-fashioned puddings — are the reason to visit this classic Soho restaurant. A handful of outside tables on Dean Street are the way to go."

"Restaurants Crêperies Southwark. Your kids don’t have to wait till Shrove Tuesday comes around for their pancake fix – thanks to this bright, buzzy venue squeezed into one corner of Flat Iron Square. Sweet and savoury buttermilk varieties abound, from 1,000 baby greens to banana with praline and marshmallow."

"Whether you like your pancakes sweet, savoury or even gluten free, Where the Pancakes Are has you covered. Using only carefully sourced, nutrient packed ingredients, we adore the selection fresh toppings available. Why not pair your pancake perfectly with a house juice, cocktail or coffee?"

"Italian-originating Said is the London offshoot of Rome’s oldest chocolate shop, but the gravity of such status doesn’t stop it from getting a little silly. Hot chocolate here transcends warm beverage to full-blown dessert – rich, thick, molten chocolate is spooned into cups so generously it often overflows. Cakes can be ordered here too, with the option of adding a dutiful drenching of hot milk, dark or white chocolate sauce."

"This dog-friendly east London café is certainly one to add to your London vegan food roster. Not only is there a full vegan English breakfast, complete with crispy hash browns, roasted plum tomatoes and grilled sourdough dripping in creamy vegan butter, they also serve seriously generous portions, leaving even the hungriest of customers full. There’s far more than fry ups on offer, though: the spicy coconut ramen is a delightful winter warmer, served with silky tofu, shiitake mushrooms and thick udon noodles deliciously slurped up when drizzled in hot chilli oil."
