Judy, we used to go to Fitzroy St or Acland for Fish and chips every Sunday when we were kids and then eat them down at the marina. Sometimes we got to look in the cake shops but don't remember being allowed to buy anything very often. I'm sure the cakes were expensive for all 8 of us! Most of the same cake shops are still there and the cakes look the same as what I remember. These days we've bought a few things but not really being a sweets eater I'm generally happy to pass on most of them.
