Depends on what type you are looking for, but my all time favorites, including chocolate and red velvet are from Fox and Obel. I also happen to love Sweet Mandy Bs for a sugar rush--just their plain vanilla. I did not at all like the new palce Swirlz on Orchard. No flavor to icing and cake not very moist.
