If you are ever in ‘Soho’ London you must visit ‘Cox Cookies & Cake’ at 13 Brewer Street. The brainchild of ‘Patrick Cox’ - of Wannabe shoe fame along with his venture partner French patissier ’Eric Lambard’ have set up this really funky cake shop.
As you walk down Brewer Street you can hear the uplifting music pounding away. The exterior is sexy black with window displays illuminated in pink, baby blue & lime neon tubes. The interior has a black marble floor along with dark sequinned walls - totally fab, you feel you arrived at the legendary ‘Studio 54’ disco. The sign behind the counter ‘I keep haunting you’ was a gift from ‘Tracey Emin’.
Staff are eye candy - good looking men dressed in black with sexy studded black leather aprons. The cakes are the main attraction - cool groovy toppings in deep purple, red, black topped with suger diamonds & edible glitter. We chose ‘Pop cake’ a vanilla frosting and white chocolate homage to Warhol’s Marilyn Monroe. Also ‘Red Skull’ a chocolate cake filled with strawberry compote & blood red frosting and a dark jewelled skull! Both were an absolute taste sensation and keenly priced at £4.00 each. I will definitely will repeat the experience - the music is also pretty good!
