any recommendations for a good birthday cake?

[somer-villains.livejournal.com]

we need to pick up a birthday cake on short notice (tomorrow).  we usually like the cakes from party favors in brookline, but they tend to be on the costly side, and this is just for a toddler's birthday.  but we do like wholesome ingredients nonetheless.  are there any good local bakeries that make a decent cake (i.e., not your typical shaw's cake with 10 times the sugar and all sorts of artificial ingredients)?  reasonably priced would be a big plus, as we don't want to spend $50-100 on a cake... were thinking more along the lines of $25.  we were thinking possibly some of the portuguese hole-in-the-wall hidden gems in east cambridge, but we don't want to take a blind gamble.

thanks in advance!

I love Lyndells. Their cakes and frostings are delish and they make really adorable kids' cakes.
