Crazy Cake Golf

Regular readers may have noticed that I'm quite a fan of cake. Nick likes golf (a bit... he doesn't own any of those unusual trousers or anything). So when I heard that Bompas and Parr were putting a cake-themed crazy golf course onto the roof of Selfridges this summer, it seemed the ideal Sunday afternoon activity.


All the obstacles are London landmarks made to look like cake. They're not actually icing and sponge, that would be a recipe for melty disaster in the British summer, but they look pretty realistic. And you get a Bakewell tart scented score card to add to the ambiance.












There are ten holes, and they ticket it so there aren't queues or too much waiting around. 






Tickets are released in monthly batches,  so you can still go along if cakey golf's your thing.

  1. Cake plus any sport is a win as far as I am concerned.

    1. Exactly my thinking. Especially sport that doesn't require anyone to wear lycra!
