I want to buy a birthday cake this week for my fella. Can anyone recommend a shop in town that makes good cakes? Don't want anything too showy just something better than i could make.
Would have to pick it up on Friday so ideas quick please in case i need to order it.
Thanx folks.

Try roses the bakers
or ne gud bakery!

Supermarkets do good cakes just buy em off the shelf - not always Thomas the Tank Engine and Barbie - you can get Boobs or Champagne bottles etc etc - lots and lots of Novelty cakes in various styles!!

Asda can print photos onto the Icing as well - Looks fantastic especially in Black and White!!

:thumbsup:

Fancy you knowing where the best cakes can be found Shieshuk! :o

I'd recommend Staniforths bakers; they do them to order, and look very good! :thumbsup:

I love Marks and Spencer's cakes. The buttercream is spot on. :thumbsup:

i agree with adlinds marks and spencer do yummy cakes to suit all ages always get mine from there.

Try Jesney's on Chesterfield Road,Woodseats,it's a family business,they will probably need two weeks notice, but well worth it.

Marks & Spencers have a great selection of cakes that taste fab and are very reasonably priced! :smile:

We've had some nice cakes done for my boy from a place in hackenthorpe called, I think, Celebration Cakes. We have ordered cakes in the shape of his favourite cartoon characters etc. & they were about £15. I don't know if Hackenthorpe is a bit out of your way.

Hi has to be Roses the Bakers (Croospool or Eccie Rd South)

Fantastic buns and cakes!!

Thorntons do good cakes.I'm not sue if they stock them in all the little town shops, but I've had them from sainsburys in abbeydale before.
You'll never beat a home made cake though , because it has the special ingreedient in , which cant be bought from a shop(your love).dead simple victoria sponge,let it cool, fresh whipped cream with a bit of icing sugar added, and fresh strawberries,yummy!you can buy litle fancy chocolate decorations in aldi, so I'm sure their available in most supermarkets.thats what I'd do anyway.So many bought cakes are either sickly or dry.
