Be like Ayanda. Order the Iced Cream Nut Cake…
Ayanda joined us from South Africa just over two months ago.. and this was her first time trying our best selling dessert. Safe to say she approved. 😍
Made fresh in house by our chefs..a decadent vanilla ice cream cake, with a nut and biscuit mix, topped with a rich chocolate sauce. Not a slice of cake. An entire CAKE made of ice cream.
At £8.95 a slice it’s the dessert you didn’t know you needed..
Don’t leave without it.
