Konditor & Cook: the cake shop everyone should know about
I first encountered the magic that is Konditor & Cook during my first year at law school. My class had gone for post-tutorial drinks and suddenly, out of the mists of Cornwall Road, appeared a purple-hued vision, with sweet treats galore lined up in the windows. We entered, we ogled, we bought and we enjoyed some of the best cakes in London.
And what cakes they do have, everything from chocolate cake to gingerbread (proper gingerbread, in all its cakey loveliness) to my personal favourite, their divine lemon drizzle cake: a perfect pick-me-up when I’ve spent all day with my nose in statute books. They do sandwiches at lunch time and breakfast goodies in the morning, and everything comes in beautifully patterned paper bags.
With branches at London Bridge, the Gherkin, Chancery Lane, the Curzon Soho on Shaftesbury Avenue and on the South Bank, it may be Lent, but get some more cake in your life!
