One of the most common questions we hear at Num Num's Bakery is simple: "Can I get a birthday cake near me in Sydney?" It's a fair question — and the answer depends on where you are. We operate from two pick-up locations in western Sydney, and between them, we cover a large portion of the greater Parramatta region and beyond.
This article breaks down exactly which suburbs are within easy reach of each of our locations, what you can expect when you order, and how to get a fresh eggless birthday cake ready for your next celebration.
- Num Num's Bakery has two pick-up locations: Harris Park and Riverstone
- Harris Park is best for customers from Parramatta, Westmead, Auburn, and Granville
- Riverstone suits customers from Blacktown, The Ponds, Rouse Hill, and Schofields
- All cakes are 100% eggless, made fresh to order, available in 15 flavours
- Order via WhatsApp with at least 48 hours notice — more for intricate custom designs
Our Two Pick-Up Locations
Num Num's Bakery operates as a pick-up only bakery from two permanent locations in western Sydney. We don't currently offer delivery — but that's intentional. Pick-up means every cake is handled and collected at its freshest, and you get exactly what was made for you.
Harris Park — 96/96 Wigram Street
Harris Park is our flagship location, sitting right on the edge of Parramatta CBD. It's open every day of the week from 11 am to 10 pm — including weekends and most public holidays — which makes it our most flexible option for last-minute or weekend birthday pickups. If your party is on a Saturday afternoon and you want to collect the cake the morning of, Harris Park is your best bet.
Riverstone — Shop 8, Riverstone Shopping Centre
The Riverstone location caters to the fast-growing suburbs of Sydney's north-west. Open Monday to Friday 6 am to 8 pm and weekends 7 am to 7 pm, it gives early risers and working parents a convenient window around school and work schedules. For customers in the Hills District or north of Blacktown, Riverstone is almost always the closer option.
Suburbs Served by Harris Park
If you live in any of the following suburbs, the Harris Park location on Wigram Street is your most convenient pick-up point. Most of these are within a 10–15 minute drive, and several are walkable or accessible by train via Parramatta Station.
Suburbs Served by Riverstone
The Riverstone location is designed for the rapidly expanding north-west corridor. If you live in any of the following suburbs, Riverstone is your closest pick-up point — and often only 10–20 minutes away.
Planning a Birthday Cake Pick-Up: What to Know
Order at Least 48 Hours in Advance
All cakes at Num Num's are made fresh to order — there is no display cabinet to grab from. This means every order is prepared specifically for you, to your chosen flavour, size, and design. The minimum notice we ask for is 48 hours. For custom two-tier cakes, elaborate fondant work, or orders during busy periods (school holidays, long weekends, Indian and Pakistani festivals), 4–5 days gives us the best chance to deliver exactly what you have in mind.
Choosing Your Flavour
We offer 15 flavours across our full cake range — from crowd-pleasers like Classic Vanilla and Chocolate Fudge to more distinctive options like Rasmalai, Butterscotch, Mango, and Pistachio. For children's birthday parties, Vanilla, Choco Vanilla, and Strawberry tend to be the most popular. For adult celebrations, Lotus Biscoff, Blueberry, and Pistachio are consistent favourites.
If you're ordering for a mixed group and aren't sure about preferences, a two-tier cake with different flavours in each layer is a practical option — ask about this when you message through your order.
Sizing for Your Party
Our cakes are available in a range of sizes to suit gatherings from 10 to 50+ guests. A rough guide:
- Small (serves 10–15): ideal for intimate family birthday celebrations
- Medium (serves 20–30): the most popular size for children's birthday parties and small work celebrations
- Large (serves 35–50): suited to extended family gatherings, milestone birthdays, and combined celebrations
- Tiered (50+): for larger events — pricing depends on design and layers
When you message to order, let us know the number of guests and we'll recommend the right size for your event.
What to Tell Us When You Order
To confirm your birthday cake order, message us on WhatsApp with the following details:
- Pick-up location: Harris Park or Riverstone
- Pick-up date and time: within our opening hours at your chosen location
- Flavour: one or multiple if you'd like a split-layer option
- Size: number of guests is helpful if you're not sure which size to choose
- Design brief: theme, colours, any text on the cake (e.g. "Happy 5th Birthday Aiden")
- Dietary notes: all cakes are 100% eggless, but let us know about any other allergens or restrictions
Why Eggless Birthday Cakes Work for Everyone at the Party
One practical benefit of ordering from Num Num's that many customers don't initially consider: an eggless cake can be shared by everyone at the table without the usual checks. No separate cupcake for the child with an egg allergy. No last-minute calls to ask whether the vegetarian guest can eat it. No concern for halal-observant families in the group.
A single eggless birthday cake from Num Num's covers all of that by default. That's not a niche selling point — it's a genuine convenience for the parents and party hosts who plan these things, especially in western Sydney where guest lists often span multiple dietary backgrounds.
The cakes taste like cakes. Moist, structured, and flavoured well — not like a compromise. The most common feedback we hear from first-time customers is that they couldn't tell the difference, and then they order again.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Num Num's Bakery deliver birthday cakes?
We currently operate as a pick-up only bakery from Harris Park and Riverstone. Delivery is not offered at this time. If you're further afield, it's worth checking whether a friend or family member can collect on your behalf — the cakes travel well when handled carefully.
How far in advance should I order a birthday cake?
At least 48 hours. For larger or more detailed custom designs, 4–5 days notice is recommended. During school holidays and around public holidays, we get busier — so the more notice you can give, the better.

Which location should I choose if I live in Blacktown or the Hills?
The Riverstone location is the better option for Blacktown, Schofields, The Ponds, Rouse Hill, and the Hills District. It opens early on weekdays (6 am) if you need to collect before work or a school party.
