Christopher’s Cake Shop
The verdict
With outposts in Kogarah, Miranda, Mascot and Surry Hills, Christopher's Cake Shop is something of an institution in Sydney, having originally opened in 1955. In the nearly sixty years since, not much has changed in that its famous cakes are still made to delectable perfection, though you can order online now. On the list you'll find everything from classic chocolate mud cake and tiramisu through to carrot tea cake and apple pie.
