The best ever birthday cakes

FOOD & LIFESTYLE

Let's be honest. Finding a birthday cake which tastes as good as it looks on Instagram can be quite challenging. I recently had the pleasure of stumbling across Sincerely Sam Cakes and was surprised at how delicious the cake was. Available in various shapes and sizes, decorated by a heavenly set of florals, the cake is not only an artwork in itself - but so tasty too. Over are the days of boring, plain cakes. A special mention to Vanoir Sydney for the gorgeous birthday delivery too!
