It may not the be the end to the year we had hoped for, but here’s hoping London’s desserts will always bring a moment of pure joy.
Black Forest brownie: Breid
Virunga 70% chocolate brownie layered with cherry compote, silky-smooth dark chocolate ganache, blobs of dense, pudding-like chocolate crèmeux and chocolate shavings on top. Breid does a slightly different version of the Black Forest brownie after December too.
Arch 72 Dunbridge St, London E2 6JG
Black Forest cake: Cake hole
Moist chocolate sponge cake with cherry syrup, big juicy black cherries and generous layers of airy, whipped cream cheese frosting.
London markets
Santa’s milk & cookies: Yolkin

Chocolate orange bun: Karma Bread
Light, fluffy vanilla brioche with orange zest and juice, a filling of orange and white chocolate custard, plus dark chocolate drizzles on top. Available until New Year’s Eve!
