About My Cakes & Shakes

Welcome to the official Facebook page for quite possibly the best dessert parlour in London

My Cakes & Shakes Description

Welcome to Cakes & Shakes, so you want to know more about us? Well, in that case, let's start from the beginning.

Our story began with an idea on holiday where we fell in love with the smooth creamy white stuff. Yep, you guessed it. . . Ice cream!

After returning, we tried many desserts parlours with our taste buds often taking a severe beating. All we found was overpriced poor quality ice cream and don't even get me started on the desserts. So in 2005 after many years of dismay and disappointment we decided to change that.

Armed with only our passion and desire to deliver great tasting ice cream and prices that won't melt your pocket we began our journey. Cakes & Shakes was born. Over the next few years, we spent time researching new products and picking the finest natural ingredients. After many months of trial and error, we designed a specific menu. Introducing Cakes, Shakes, Waffles, Icecream and over these late long nights our love for coffee and sandwiches grew too.

In 2007 with no business knowledge, we put our menu to the test by opening our first branch in Gants Hill Essex and WOW what a hit. Years of planning and a lot of hard work had finally paid off Cakes & Shakes was alive and here to stay.

With the success our menu grew. Offering more flavours of our unique homemade ice cream, our milkshake menu tripled in size, we added smoothies, crepes, great tasting sundaes and cookie dough. We offer a relaxed family friendly environment to all local regular customers whilst, not forgetting those who have travelled many miles to come visit us to enjoy our great experience.

We are always working towards improving our products and developing new ideas so our customer knows that a Cakes & Shakes we never skip on quality and service.

Over the years, Cakes & Shakes is proud for being an avenue for some great moments and some not so great from couples meeting for the first time, long lost friends reunited, relationship make ups and break ups.

BUT we could not have done this without your help and support. We hope you enjoy our products as much as we enjoy offering them to you we like to thank you all. Remember, our journey has just begun.

PS. With great service comes even greater responsibility.

Yummy desserts best waffles, ice cream and cakes in london

We went into the Gants Hill store in Essex today. I asked the man behind the counter which ones were the sorbets? He showed me and asked if I'd like a sample of the rose sorbet. I was intrigued as I had never had it or knew it existed. It was fabulous and I had a scoop and my husband had the lemon which I also tasted and it was amazing, so lemony and refreshing. We chatted with the staff who were so helpful and friendly, such a pleasure to have great products as well as great staff. Can't wait to take our son who just turned 9 in to have an icecream. He is going to love it!

Thank you, Cakes & Shakes made my afternoon today.

Milkshake was lovely as always. Had to wait 30 minutes for a baguette to be toasted- can't imagine what possibly could take that long as there was only us in there that they were doing anything for. Not to mention all the wasps that are hovering around on us in there around the main counter etc and the 'no-lidded bins' which must be attracting them. Then my milkshake got taken away after a wasp was all over it even though it had a small amount in the bottom which I was still drinking???

User

Had to wait for tables to be cleaned before we could sit. Shop was dirty. Dirty cutlery.

I will not be returning. #gantshillbranch

Asked for crepe and was served a burnt pancake

User

Visited with a group of friends last night, ordered the usual milkshakes, waffles and crepes, however I had also ordered a Diet Coke. The Diet Coke was in a plastic bottle, opened it and noticed it was not fizzing, tasted it, it was flat. The date of expiry was APRIL 2016. Took it to the counter were a very rude woman insisted the date on the bottle was the date it was made, not expiry. She was very offended by my comment, then a gentleman also working offered a glass bottle of Diet Coke.. This expired in FEBRUARY 2016. They instantly emptied the fridge of Diet Coke and poured it down the sink, no offer of money back.



Your stock should be checked and rotated daily. I dread to think what else hasn't been checked in the premises. Trading standards I'm sure would not be impressed.



Stock rotation in a place selling food / drinks is of the upmost importance. It's common sense.

Sort your loughton branch out, i drive past every day and your workers are standing outside having a fag and scratching their balls! Very off putting and not to mention unhygienic!

User

Loughton branch never ever has crepes or pancakes- take them off the menu! Waited an hour for a regular milkshake and the place is a state. The girl in there is very rude and messed up loads of orders then tried to make it the customers fault.
