Buying a birthday cake in London

[tsg20]

So, I'd like to get a nice birthday cake for my girlfriend. I've left matters a little late - it's for next Saturday, so it can't be anywhere that needs ordering way in advance. Any suggestions? Ones that won't totally break the bank would be very welcome!

Patisserie Valerie. Couple of days notice should surfice. For £35 we got a cake for 15 that was beyond belief. One guest got such a rush from it they were transported to a higher state of........chocolate rush land.

Konditor & Cook very good. Shops in Cornwall Rd (Waterloo) and Gray's Inn Rd.

I second Konditor & Cook - their cakes taste delicious and have real style

Konditor & Cook or Euphorium in Islington
