Think back to your childhood - walking into a shop with your 10 pence to buy a quarter of Rubarn &…read moreCustard sweets. Thought those days were gone? Think again! Though it might cost you more than 10 pence!!! Popping into Cranch's will bring memories flooding back and you will find sweets there you had probably forgotten all about.

If you are visiting Totnes make sure you have a look at Cranchs, it will take you back when you…read morehave a look at the jars of traditional sweets. Barley sugar twists, butter scotch and pineapple cubes they are all here. Pick a quarter of something you fancy and get your paper bag with a little of what you fancy. They also cater for the romantic trade with boxes of quality chocolates and in season Easter Eggs and Christmas novelties. You can also get a Devon cowpat (delicious fudge really) and some rock to take home. My person favourite is the coconut mushrooms.

I've been to the shop many times over the years. The shop is lovely...... but be warned. Do NOT ask…read morethem to post clotted cream to anyone you like. They advertise that they use insulated packaging, they don't, they use bubble-wrap (hardly renowned for its insulating properties) and rely on Royal Mail first class postage. As Royal Mail guarantee 90% of first class mail arrives the day after posting the delivery may only be rattling around a hot van/sorting-office/etc for up to 24 hours. But 10% is mistreated for longer. It seems that Gays are happy enough that 90% of their customers are OK, but not overly worried at all that one in ten of their customers are getting deficient product.

The bakery serves a wide range of products including cream teas, pasties and cakes. It is located on the main strip of shops nearest the river so it is ideal to get lunch from the bakery and sit on the tables just on the opposite side of the road.

This is the place to get pick and mix sweets. The range is awsome…read more It is situated on the lower level of the Harlequins shopping centre and is a shop which has a strange magnetic appeal and will draw you in with all the sights and smells of all the different sweets. There are lots of little gifts as well as a large party accessories area where you can find everything from balloons to party favours. It is not just a place for children as there are many big kids in there as well as there is a large range of retro sweets as well. Very good for children spending their pocket money, very good for adults buying sweets to make their own retro sweet boxes or hampers. The staff are very helpful as well. The only drawback is that you will spend more than you bargained for as there is always just one other sweet that you have to try! There is also another Streamers shop in Cowick Street, St Thomas, Exeter

The bakery has a small seating area outside the store, the bakery also does cooked breakfast and this is excellent value. The bakery is spotlessly clean, the staff are really friendly and helpful, every time Im in Dawlish warren, the bakery is my favourite stop.

Vinnicombes bakery fits in with the whole, olde worlde theme of Sidmouth. The bakery itself has…read morebeen there a few years. I dare you to walk past at around 8 or 9 in the morning without buying anything. The smells are irresistible!! Bread is baked daily on the premises and I assure you, you won't get bread like this in the supermarket. Specialities include garlic bread, olive bread and banana cake! The staff are very friendly and helpful and they also do hot pasties and pies. With cakes and pasties this is a treasure trove of a bakers and well worth a visit. Yum yum yum.

St Mary's Bakery is probably the best place to buy cakes and bread in Torbay. This town centre…read morebranch is at the top of Victoria St and it sells everything you would expect; cakes, bread, pies, pasties, sandwiches etc. At the rear of the shop is a small cafe and upstairs there is a bigger cafe, Jessica's Coffee Shop in fact, which does a very good full English breakfast for £4.25. If you get a window table you get a great view of Victoria St and you can sit and watch everyone going about their business. There are two real disadvantages; no parking - well Victoria St is pedestrianised! The toilets are upstairs and it is quite a steep staircase. Other than that I can highly recommend this establishment.

Shauls is a nice little bakery situated close to the city centre which sells the usual pasties and…read morecakes alongside pizzas, paninis and baguettes (which they will make to your requirements).

The shop is situated in Victoria St, which is a pedestrianised street so there is no parking directly outside the shop but it is only a short walk to a car park, the train and bus stations.

It's no better than some of the independents out there other than its cosmetics. All of their money has been spent on fit outs and really need to spend on sourcing better products.
