"If cookies stuffed with the likes of butterscotch cookie dough, peanut butter and chocolate ganache isn’t enough to entice you, perhaps the fact that they’re made by ex-Claridge’s pastry chef Kimberly Lin is. Available for delivery nationwide, the vegan cookies come in five core flavours, alongside a sixth rotating seasonal option. Kimberley has spent the past year perfecting her recipes, using the best produce available such as Valrhona chocolate to ensure the utmost quality."
"How does a vanilla cookie coated with crispy cinnamon cereal, and stuffed with rich speculoos cream sound?. Like something you want in on?. Well it’s your lucky day, because this Covent Garden pop-up turned nationwide cookie delivery service is delivering boxes of its vegan stuffed cookies around the country."
"A soft-and-crisp, pecan-studded butterscotch cookie with a filling of date caramel, it’s creamy in the centre, warming – not sugary sweet – and completely vegan too. 5 James St, London WC2E 8BH. Open for take-away and nationwide delivery."
"Bakers Mathew and Andrew met while working in Melbourne and decided to return to London to set up their own business. Chewy Cookie is all about quality, ethically sourced cookies. The doughs are aged for 24 hours before baking (and we can attest to how great they taste)."
"OK, now we know this next suggestion for the best desserts in London, isn’t a restaurant or cafes – but if you’re looking for an amazing dessert on-the-go, then I don’t think you can top Ben’s Cookies for deliciousness and price. Yummy, gooey, tasty cookies that dreams are made of."
"Climbing the O2 is an easy, fun outdoor challenge without the need for ice axe or crampons says Kirstie Pelling from The Family Adventure Project.

This rural oasis is not only home to some furry friends (including donkeys!) but prides itself on its educational value, with an array of incredible initiatives taking place throughout the year. Stepney City Farm take their growing seriously - see if you can spot their magnificent, colourful allotments as you wander around the farm!"

"Seasonal ingredients are at the focus of La Gelatiera, so flavours tend to change most weeks – and so return visits can be attributed to curiosity over greed. Its award-winning gelato is made with cream and milk from Jersey cows, with a selection of vegan alternatives available too. Of those we’ve had, its honey, rosemary and orange zest is a fragrant favourite, Cornish blue cheese is mixed with walnuts for a savoury option, while a dairy-free dark chocolate gelato comes spiced with Calabrian chilli."
"Address: 17 Topsfield Rd, Crouch End, London N8 8PP and 27 New Row, Covent Garden, London WC2N 4LA and 1 West Park Walk, East Village, London E20 1DH. The multi-award winning artisan gelato shop is not to be missed. It combines carefully chosen ingredients, craftmanship and creativity with great success - and to ensure freshness with gelato is made in small batches each day."
"They make traditional gelato that tastes evert bit as good as anything you’d have in Italy. Walking down the streets of London on a sunny day with one of their cones is one of life’s great pleasures. They also do great waffles and other tasty sweet treats but keep your eye on the prize and focus in on the gelato."
"Sammie Le’s Chinatown dessert parlour is the best place in London to get your mitts on macaron ice cream sandwiches. Distinctive south-east Asian ice cream flavours like Chinese egg tart and pandan coconut are wedged between two crisp and chewy macarons for one of the best sweet treats in the whole of the capital. Made from free-range eggs in small batches, the ice cream has a luscious texture that holds its shape even when the summer sun is at its violent, forehead-burning peak."
"But one thing I can guarantee you is that it serves some mega ice cream flavours and, of course, their famous macaroon ice cream sandwiches!. I can’t promise you that the flavour is always going to be available (best to keep an eye on their Instagram), but the Matcha Oreo ice cream was totally spot on!"
