The Elmvale Bakery makes some of the most sinfully delicious treats! Anytime I’m up north at the cottage I try my darnedest to make a stop here to indulge in some of their homemade goodies. I love to buy their egg bread to use to make french toast. One of their specialities are their glazed raspberry filled donuts. They’re very rich and dense, but totally worth the calories! If you buy a box and find that they’re not quite as good the next day(assuming they’ll last that long, they usually don’t) a good trick is to just throw them in the microwave for 10 seconds. I have also purchased various cakes, cookies, tarts, and squares from the bakery. They always have an array of delicious baked good in the display case making it hard to choose! If you’re looking for a nice dessert, try the custard cakes — they make them in an array of flavours and they’re all awesome. The staff is also extremely kind and helpful! If you’re in Elmvale, you would be doing yourself a great disservice not to check it out!

A gem of a bakery with a wonderful selection of European and Canadian breads, cakes and other treats, including homemade pizza and schnitzel sandwiches. Rye bread is a specialty.
