Practicality Reigns


 

Pâtisserie sounds so much better than bakery. Pâtisserie has mystery. Romance. At least to the ear of this anglais. And most of the pâtisseries I have know in France have glorious looking store fronts. In Canada, practicality reigns. It goes with the name.

But if you are looking for still-hot-from-the-oven cheese bread, then this Canadian bakery in a small town on the edge of London is a great place to go. And their sour dough bread has body, a nice crust and a lovely tangy flavour. Their raisin bread has oodles of raisins sprinkled throughout the loaf. Very fruity.

Sunshine Bakery has been baking bread and desserts for the residents of Mount Brydges for some 64 years. Maybe in the next 64 years they can add a table or two so that customers can sit and enjoy a slice or two of freshly baked bread with some local jam. And who knows, maybe, just maybe they would sell more baked goods too with a warmer, friendlier look.
