stament Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Can anyone recommend any good places to get a birthday cake please. We have bought from the usual suspects before S+P, Svensens, bakeries in malls, Dairy Queen etc. Prefer homemade, recommendations highly appreciated. Secondly looking for good blueberry cheesecake recommendations.... Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pgrahmm Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 The best we have found is Cake Lover on the canal road 500M? south of the intersection that goes to the Queens garden.... It's as close as you'll find here to a nice, moist, homemade cake....After finding this shop we've never gone anywhere else - and we've tried a lot of places over the years.... No hint of the commercial cake mass produced taste.... It's on the southbound side & it's side by side with a small Thai noodle? shop....If you go too fast you'll zip right past it easily..... When eating out to celebrate a birthday we share a piece with the owner of whichever place we go = they've all been surprised at how good the cake is & ask where they can get it....It isn't like the normal local offerings.....Priced right too... You do have order ahead a day or two....They don't have old display cakes lying around....They're made to order.... Hug bakery makes some outstandingly beautiful cakes that impress if that's a goal - but the taste is marginal.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, your post nails it on the head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffandgop Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Seeing Cake Lover’s reviews my wife and I tried it last year. It’s good but we both thought better desserts are found at Oasis and Fern Forest Cafe. Both are restaurants with good food, slices of pies and cakes, and we have ordered whole cheesecakes from both to take away home. Check their websites/FB pages.

( to go? ) They also have coffee & small pastries, but I've never seen a cake cut to sell slices.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are Thai priced.... Take it home & have your way with it..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NancyL Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 I don't know about blueberry cheesecake, but My Secret Cafe in Town does great cakes at very reasonable prices for special events like anniversaries, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmsally Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Love at First Bite used to do birthday cakes. Haven't been there in a while, I presume they still do. You would need to order in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
