For cupcakes that look like they’re on steroids, head to this little café off The Seven Dials and indulge in a wild variety of flavours topped with rainbow icing and a piece of novelty candy.

Bea’s of Bloomsbury
The majority of cakes in this boutique bakery are layered, and served American style (massive). Try the German chocolate cake - a layered chocolate cake with chocolate ganache and dulce de leche, or the piled up strawberry cupcake.

Cake Boy
If this started as a childhood taunt for master patissier Eric Lanlard, it’s become more of a calling card, with cake-maker at Madge & Guy’s wedding on his resume. Cake boy’s ‘cake lounge’ is great if you want a piece of the action.
