anon463453412 Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 I have to buy a birthday cake for a friend and he abhors all the usual cakes you can find in the malls and so on - fake icing with dry sponge. Ugh. Ideally I'd love to get hold of a fantastic cheesecake or a carrot cake. On top of that I'm not loaded, haha. Can anyone help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubberduck Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 (edited) Buttercake with fruit pieces from Puff&Pie bakery in the Thai Airlines office, add whippingcream and you have something that's not bad at all. I think P&P also are at Suthep Road. They have delicious stuff. Perhaps bigger cakes as well. Edited June 13, 2013 by rubberduck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellodolly Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Butter is better. Many different selections and they will work on it with you if you want some thing a little different. The Peanut butter Chocolate cake and the carrot cake are my favorites. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KRS1 Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Not a cheesecake or carrot cake, but the chiffon cake wedges at 7-11 are the best Ive had in CNX. Maybe you can buy alot of little wedges and make a whole cake out of it... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arunsakda Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 This place was very nice. It is near the old Brasserie location, on river side of street. Forgot the name of the street, but it is where Riverside, Good View etc are located. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tfc Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 The Mandarin Oriental Bakery is my favorite place for cheesecakes in Chiang Mai. All the cakes I've had there however use good ingredients. Great macaroons too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes love at first bite is very good but he did say he was not rich. Not sure of the price on a whole cake there. I do know that butter is better is 750 baht for a carrot cake and it is not a small came. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulysses G. Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 I like both Love at First Bite and Butter is Better, but IMO, Butter is Better is the better of the two. I don't think that the prices are much different, but have not thought about it much. Butter is Better cakes and pies: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elektrified Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 (edited) If you are buying for a farang then I too would recommend Butter is Better. They are really high-quality. If buying for a Thai then I would recommend Phung Noi Bakery. Both are custom order a day in advance. Either way, a good cake will cost you about 1,000 Baht.

I have actually never tried BisB deserts Because when I am there I leave so stuffed on banana pancakes & bacon I never look .

ratcliffe Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 I love cake and definately think Love at first bite is the best. I think over the last 7 years I've tried most places and eaten plenty of cakes. I prefer Love at first bite to over Butter is Better.

anon463453412 Posted June 16, 2013 Author Share Posted June 16, 2013 Wow. Thank you all so much. I guess I have to have a cake mission this coming weekend. Butter is Better and Love @ 1st Bite seem like the places to investigate first. Thanks so much again! Yum! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Butter is Better and Love @ 1st Bite seem like the places to investigate first. Thanks so much again! Yum! Two good choices let us know Love at first Bite has a to die for Grasshopper pie. But I prefer the butter is better cake. Try a piece at each. but do not let temptation get you to try two pieces at each one. They can become habit forming. I believe Love at first Bite is closed on Mondays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mania Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 (edited) OT but, I dont know if they still do food but as a side mention I had a cheeseburger at Love at 1st Bite once Owner came over & asked if I liked it. Was quite good as I remember Edited June 16, 2013 by mania Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBrad Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 Angel's Secrets features cheesecake and carrot cake, exactly the two items you're asking about. I highly recommend her baked goods which are prepared to western tastes with quality ingredients. She, too, is closed on Mondays. http://goo.gl/maps/FyrfW 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulysses G. Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 Agreed on Angel's Secrets. Both her cheesecake and carrot cake are very good, but order in advance as she often sells out quickly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihunnieibee Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 (edited) If all else fails get a matcha green tea cake from swensens-- they're delicious! **edit Neverminddddddddddddd I think they only deliver in Japan original post "If you have time you should order a cheesecake from Farm Design, They're a Japanese Cheesecake shop and they have a website (just google it) using Hokkaido milk ^^ Verrrrrrrrrrrrrrry Delicious but a little pricy worth a try if you want to impress because the taste is very delicious! They don't have a location in Chiang Mai but since you can order online I believe it shouldn't be a problem to get one to you, either way good luck with the cake hunt!!

StevenSmith Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 I must say you have selected the best flavor of the cake. Even I love carrot cake and you want to buy soft sponge and creamy cake and you can buy such cake from Deliciae Patissarie one of the best cake shop in Mumbai. I am sharing a pic of my birthday cake i.e carrot cake it was too yummy and soft also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
