I've ordered birthday cakes for my kids from here for the past few years and they have never disappointed me.  Ice cream is amazing and the cakes are always beyond what I have asked for and pictured they will be.  Always fantastic customer service and delivery as promised.  I can't rate them highly enough.

Ive passed this shop many many many times going to and from work, and I always see it as its bright pink and always empty. A couple of years ago, I had stopped there to give my application in as they had a big sign out the front looking for staff. The Indian lady said quietly "females only". I was that upset, I walked away and never returned.
Instead, the next year....I became Assistant Manager at Trampoline Gelato and made the Gelato every morning.

After looking at the reviews here today, there is definitely a mix but despite the Owner coming on and giving himself a low rating to just respond to people, it still has a incredible rating of 3.2 which on Zomato is still pretty impressive.

MY REVIEW:
I went in there on this cold miserable day. The outside of their shop definitely attracts 'Parents with their kids'. A Caucasian girl was working, and her work ethic, professionalism and customer service was spot on. Would be good to have a Uniform thou....

I asked for 3 Scoops of Ice Cream (not Gelato) in a Cup so I can taste their Ice-Cream. I love Honey Comb so I got that flavor. I also got a Caramel one and the third I asked the Girl what she can recommend. She told me the Chocolate is what she loves.

I wish she put the Chocolate on the bottom, as it was definitely the best Ice Cream ive had in awhile.

*The Honeycomb was a huge let down. Not much flavor. It was like Vanilla and pieces of Crunchie in it. The Vanilla was Icey and not smooth like the Incredible Chocolate. I would definitely not order this again.

*The Caramel wasnt bad but not very strong flavours, but for the price...Im not too fussed by it. I wouldnt mind getting it again.

*The Chocolate Ice Cream. Wow....definitely wouldnt have chosen boring Vanilla, Chocolate or Strawberry but Im glad the girl had recommended the Chocolate. It was so Rich, velvety and smooth.

Their cakes looked pretty good too. You have to be the judge of how many people you need to feed. The cone sticking out of the Icecream was pretty cool. Would be nice if they turned the lights on in the freezer. Having it dark makes it less attractive. Maybe a light sensor that comes on when someone stands in front of it. Cuts down costs.

How do you not have a Sundae or anything warm?

This shop has so much potential and as its the only Ice Cream shop, the owner needs to go out of his comfort zone and shake things up.

I think for the price, it sells good ICE CREAM (not Gelato). Its local, they make the Ice Cream on site, and has a good multicultural vibe.

I will return with others soon.

"....NATURAL..BUT..ICE-CREAM LACKED SERIOUS FLAVOUR...."

Okay.. we took off to Waverley Road, Malvern East.. yesterday afternoon.. to have a sundae at DAIRY BELL ICE-CREAM SHOP..

Well.. of course.. another one gone.. it was there last year.. but, whole building bull-dozed.. this year..!!

Google came up with another place - LICK ME ICE-CREAM on Riversdale Road, Middle Camberwell..
[Incidentally.. this shop is also known as THE BIRTHDAY CAKE SHOP and GOURMET ICE-CREAM FACTORY..]

Anyway, no sundaes on offer.. smoothies still all the rage.. so we ordered:

-2 x Caramel Thick Shakes with added Malt - $5.95 + .50 = $6.45 each - These were TRULY DELISH..!! - Loads of Ice-cream, Full-cream Milk, Quality tasting Caramel Topping plus Malt Powder.. YUM..!!

-1 x 3 scoop Large Waffle Cone - $6 - Chose a Caramel, a Chocolate and Hokey Pokey - Disappointed with the flavour.. not much there.. could hardly discriminate between the 3 scoops.. only marked difference was the colour..

-1 x 500ml take-home tub from the freezer - $8.90 - A coffee variety.. not good.. too aerated.. almost like foam rather than ice-cream.. not sure what happened here..??

I asked if their ice-cream was made on premises.. she said "Yes, we make it every Wednesday".. Signage says it's "All Natural.." "Made in Melbourne.."

Okay.. well.. my recommendation - A REALLY GREAT PLACE FOR A GENEROUS OLD-FASHIONED LARGE THICK SHAKE AT A VERY GOOD PRICE - $5.95....!!!!

[PS. Milk Shakes - $4.95]
[PSS. They take card payment - a rarity in little ice-cream shops]

Visited on Saturday 26/09/2015 with my family of four.

Cinnamon Doughnut/Choco Loco Cone. I'm a chocolate fiend when it comes to ice cream (which was why I got a Choco Loco scoop on my cone here) but I also like flavours that I don't find every day. So I got a scoop of Lick Me's cinnamon doughnut ice cream on my cone too. It was good in an odd way. There was a dusty, slightly bitter edge to the taste profile, the way that powdered cinnamon tastes. (If you've ever tipped some onto your latte coffee foam instead of chocolate, you can sense what I mean.) That told me that Lick Me was using the real ingredient, not merely flavouring. I had a cinnamon doughnut scoop one place where I used to live in Vancouver, Canada (doughnuts are almost a religion up there) that had big chunks of actual doughnut in it, but that was a bit over-the-top and hard to tongue up. Lick Me's was better. Their stuff isn't like dense, ultra-rich Italian gelato. It's good old-fashioned quality ice cream, though. Good on 'em for being high-class traditional.

Best cakes in town and great delivery service.. Another great experience with this company.
We have been ordering cakes here for over 5 years now and the thing that we love is the great variety.
This year we had a photo cake for the first time, which turned out great.
Ice cream is fantastic quality as well.
Thanks again -we'll be back!

Very yummy ice-cream!. We ate lick me ice-cream for the first time, had three different scoops and it was really worth coming all the way from the CBD to Camberwell! We had problems deciding which of all the different flavours we should try. We chose caramel, choc-mint and cookies and everything was really good and tasty. We are already looking forward to our next visit at lick me ice-cream!

Absolutely loved our customised duck cake for our sons birthday! They did an amazing job. It also tasted as good as it looks. The staff are very friendly and easy to deal with. We will definitely be using for birthday cakes in the future. Thanks again :)

My first time ordering from Birthday Cake Shop and they absolutely did not disappoint! I wanted a custom print photo cake for my friend's birthday and whom shares my love for gaming and so I sent across a JPEG of an in-game screenshot to them to incorporate on top of the cake. I hoped that they would be able to render the image in a visually pleasing manner. Suffice to say they nailed it. It turned out really well and my friend absolutely loved the design and look of the cake. They are very reasonably priced I might add to. Oh, and it also tasted really good (lemon sorbet, coconut and vanilla bean is such a winning combination) as attested to by all the guests. I shall be ordering more cakes from these guys in future.

Thank you so much to Joe and the team for the most delicious cake! Our guests were absolutely raving about how delicious the horse cake was. I also highly recommend the new Chocolate crunch layer though the cake as an extra addition. I really appreciated all the effort Joe went to in delivering the cake late in the evening also. The venue wouldn’t keep our cake in their freezer however Joe went above and beyond to help us out. Communication was timely and we can’t thank you enough for the impressive cake.

Perfect in every way! Best ice cream cake we've ever had. The only challenge was choosing which one to get. The range of choice is fantastic.

Order two cakes for my mums 60th and sons 2nd birthday and they both loved them. Cakes where delivered as we didn’t live close and where too big for us to handle. Great service and would definitely use them again.
