I’m 90% sure that I baked a cake at home within the last 5 years... therefore I believe I’m most definitely entitled to some desserts delivered direct to my door. Luckily for me, and for all of you, plenty of fantastic London venues are still offering this service despite shenanigans outside. Check out our complete guide to dessert deliveries in London, for doughnut dippers, cake cravers and mille feuille moments alike.
North
Doughnut balls and Kit Kat brownies are lockdown-must.
Sensations: Expect none other than home made gelato right on Holloway road. Available in a huge variety of ever-changing flavours, topped off with your choice of waffle, crêpe or cookie dough.
St. James Treats: Treat yourself to some of Walthamstow’s fluffiest cakes, in flavours like bubblegum, red velvet and pink fudge. Finish off the dessert with a milkshake rendition of your favourite chocolate bar.
Primrose Bakery: Enjoy the cutest tiers and bespoke cupcakes, perfectly fashioned for any event you might be virtually attending. Get your dozen now: from Primrose Hill to your door.
Bird: You might be wondering why one of our favourite fried chicken joints is on this list, but worry not. Islington locals can enjoy doughnut holes covered in gooey toffee fudge sauce without stepping foot outside.
South
London's best dessert delivery? Dolce and Gelato have got the goods.
Oddonos: Bringing ice cream cake to East Dulwich is no small task and Oddonos’s fine Italian gelato is an absolute banger of an addition to this list. For special occasions mid-lockdown, this is the perfect place to get personalised cakes.
Little Dessert Shop: When there’s a waffle on the menu called ‘Heavenly Fantasy’, you know you’re in for a treat. Little Dessert Shop is keeping Balham sweet, one hunking great sugar option at a time.
Dolce and Gelato: If there’s any place in London you’d be able to deliver a ‘make your own’ waffle or crêpe at home, it’s in Brixton. Can’t decide yourself? Dolce and Gelato have you sorted with pre-made options like Nutella and Oreo, strawberries and cream and simply: ‘The M&M’.
East
London's finest doughnuts? You'll have to ask Crosstown.
Urban Chocolatier: Ilford is redefining ‘mugshots’ with a ball of hot cookie dough, covered with lashings of molten chocolate and shots of ice cream to seal the deal.
Crosstown Doughnuts: We’d be fools not to include one of THE BEST Shoreditch doughnut houses. Expect rolled dough with hand made fillings in your favourite flavours like matcha tea, chocolate truffle and rhubarb and raspberry.
Lily Vanilli: This Columbia Road bakery is normally busy baking wedding cakes but right now? They’re mixing up brownies, cupcakes and birthday cakes of only the finest quality to be sent right to your front door.
Dolce London: Bring a little bit of sugar to the living room with Dolce’s premium choux boxes - look out for any flavour from dark chocolate right down to limoncello.
The Proof: Clapton favourite The Proof is on hand with profiteroles, cakes and puddings for delivery across London.
The Treats Club: Based out of Hackney's Netil Market, this foodie fave is whipping up marshmallow fluff, deep fried doughnuts and a whole host of sweet snacks for delivery and takeaway.
West
Get ice cream for the next isolation heatwave.
Badiani: Hailing from Florence in 1932, Badiani now resides in both Chelsea and Notting Hill. Discover a world of sweetness with Florentine-style gelato boxes, cakes and crêpes.
Sakurado: This Kensington ‘matcha house’ is allegedly home to London’s best matcha mille crêpe - true? You’d better order and find out. Not a matcha for you? They also do chocolate, coffee and a sweet potato mille crêpe as well.
Ice Cream Union: With over 30 flavours to choose from, Ice Cream Union is trying to bring the passion back to ice cream - with both vegan and gluten-free options available, you’d be silly not to.
Oree: Expect fine morning pastries and individual baked goods right down to fully-fledged birthday cakes for the most special of occasions from Kensington’s Oree.
Central
Try matcha crepe cakes at home from Kova.
Kova Patisserie: For a highly Instagrammable experience, enjoy Chinatown’s finest matcha mille crêpes or a gooey block of chocolate gateau with hazelnut brownie.
Chin Chin Labs: Not only touting nitro-frozen ice cream, but also some of the best desserts in London, Chin Chin Labs is delivering a mega spread of oozing cherry pies, brownie cookie stacks, vegan ice cream in the post and plenty more.
Doughnut Time: With stalls across London, this sugary haven is a must whether you fancy takeaway or a doughnut delivery straight to your home.
Crème: Still haven't tried London's chunkiest cookies? Now's your chance, as Crème makes lockdown that bit sweeter with click and collect or delivery across England, Scotland and Wales.
