Crumbs & Doilies

"This charming little Soho cafe specialises in brownies, cupcakes, and other things that would make a dentist panic, but it’s their New York-style cookies that we have a real soft spot for. All of the flavours are winners but it’s the raspberry white chocolate that we’re obsessed with. They also make bigger cakes to order—our absolute favourite is the raspberry ripple." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, rianne shlebak, daisy meager

"We could confess how many Crumbs & Doilies cookies we ordered during the pandemic but our dentists might be reading this. This little bakery in Kingly Court not only produces some seriously sugary New York-style cookies, it also makes some colourful, OTT cupcakes. The smores cupcake is our favourite when it’s available—a light chocolate sponge, topped with soft gooey marshmallows and crushed Biscoff biscuits for crunch. It’s the kind of comforting dessert that you won’t want to share. Plus, they have a six-inch, whole cake version with four hefty layers that you can order online. " - Rianne Shlebak, Daisy Meager

"Arrival time: 48 hours notice from Tuesday to Saturday for London postcodes We could confess how many Crumbs & Doilies cookies we eat but our dentists might be reading this. This little bakery in Kingly Court not only produces some seriously sugary New York-style cookies, it also produces colourful OTT birthday cakes. Basically, picture what a unicorn would make as a showstopper on Bake Off and you’ve got a fair idea of how many sprinkles and meringue kisses are involved in these cakes. " - Heidi Lauth Beasley, Rianne Shlebak

"New York cookies - £4 Crumbs & Doilies are that rare kind of cookie that really deserve a better title than just ‘cookie’. XXL, with a melted centre, and soft enough that they break off without risking your molars, they are 10/10. Oh, and heat them up in the oven for peak cosiness." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, rianne shlebak

"This Soho spot specialises in brownies, cupcakes, and other things that would make a dentist panic, but it’s their New York-style cookies that we have a real soft spot for. They’re excellent and, importantly, extra large. Each box comes with six different flavoured cookies, including things like milk chocolate chip, and birthday cake. All of the flavours are winners, but it’s the raspberry white chocolate that we particularly love. Order a pack of six with their next day delivery option, because cookies are an essential. Delivering nationwide." - rianne shlebak
