CakeBread, Pudding & Pie

Kissed the girls and made them *sigh*,

For all the girls made of Sugar & Spice

Loved the store sans thinking twice!

CakeBread, Pudding & Pie @ 71 Roeland Street

Yes, I have completely fallen in love with the new CakeBread, Pudding & Pie store on Roeland Street. It could be because the proprietors of dreams, Mari-Louis & Callie, have thought of every childlike indulgence and have executed it in only a way that could end with "and they lived happily ever after". Walking into this "shoppe around the corner" left me feeing the fairy dust on my shoulders!

With candy stripes in delectable pink and a bubble gum coloured till & ladder to match, this store, built on old world values of the sole trader from the days of "the butcher, the baker, the candle stick maker"made me feel as if I had stepped into the quintessential candy store that every princess has ever dreamed of.

The fresh coconut toppings, the meringue and butter cream icing adorned with blushing red rose petals and dried grapes - still on the vine. And red heart-shaped lolli pops that could only be eaten in pink tulle and satin shoes. And of course their signature beauty, the utterly intoxicating, Red Velvet Cupcakes, were a feast for the eyes and believe you me, the proof was in the tasting!

It's almost as if I need not sing any more praises, but the store has so much more to offer with freshly baked breads, home-made pies filled with butternut and plans for chicken and leek and other such homely, yet unusual flavours that it is no wonder that this store will be a beacon for all those in search of only the best baked goods this city has to offer.

Treat yourself today and give CakeBread, Pudding & Pie a visit, be introduced to the store and thee most sincere people that bake with their hearts and live by that very motto.  www.cakebread.co.za
