Not all doom and gloom ....

Greeted by the yellow fairy and the brown bear this morning . Just my own way of calling these cakes 😇.

Just the sight of that pinkish hue on yellow lemony cake has driven all that doom gloom feel away - almost like a breath of fresh air . Yes - you can still have your cake and eat it ( at home 🤣)

I tried the cakes at headless baker when it first opened and have bought a few times over and the standards are always consistent. In fact - I find the cakes less sweet now and much preferred .

I like how each cake at the headless baker is given a unique identity so it’s not just a universal batter then topped up with condiments .

The lemon 🍋 cake is lovely and moist with the tartness of the lemon infused cake juxtaposed with the frosting and then accompanied with a floral and nutty note from the rose petals and pistachio nuts. The banana is also a house favourite , moist with a nice slight chewy texture .

While big F and B establishments seem to be facing dooms day , I am Glad that some small and medium local start ups are flourishing.
