I have never been a fan of Brumby's or Baker's Delight with their jam and cream buns, cheesymite…read morescrolls and date scones. I prefer to go to specialist patisseries for baked goods and breads. Bumbleebee Bakery at Eight Mile Plains is the exception to the rule. As a bakery, it does a mean trade on meat pies, sausage rolls and those nasty, artery blocking jam and cream buns. There are also some scrumptious cakes and macaroons available. The macaroons are $2.20 each or six for $13. They come in an assortment of flavours and the fillings are more buttery than creamy. There is also a small Chinese baked goods section with sweet breads filled with red bean paste, BBQ pork buns and coconut buns. It's sort of like a sampler selection from Breadtop. To top it off, the staff are always friendly and cheerful. Usually they're out the back whipping up fresh new cakes but will immediately bustle out as soon as you ring the bell. What more can one ask from a neighbourhood bakery? Bumblebee gets five out of five from me for being the first decent bakery on Brisbane's far South side.

I see this little store as a special treat on a weekend occasionally. The food is delicious and…read morepotentially not ideal for the waistline simply because there is so much I would love to eat here. The baked goods are all handmade with top quality ingredients and you can tell the difference. They have a variety of cakes, danish, croissants, pastries and a host of other treats. I don't mind the coffee, the one I had I would give a 3 and a half out of 5, but not too bad. It is a fantastic place to go for cakes if you are entertaining at home or for a coffee and a croissant of a weekend morning. When I have been, the staff are lovely and service is quite fast, without feeling like you are being hurried out the door.

If this was my pantry I'd be fairly chuffed. But it's Julia's and at least she's kind enough to…read moreopen it up for Kenmorians six days a week. It's conveniently located next to The Single Guys which means it's the perfect combo for a morning coffee and stop to pick up some herbs, a ready made meal for your Parisienne Housewife dinner or to order a cake. On the morning I arrived the store had a delicious scent of cinnamon, cardamom and an array of Christmasy-spices. They'd been baking Christmas cookies and cakes. If there's a psychology of scent these guys have it down and it leaves you wanting to buy whatever they're cooking. And wait there's more: Julia's also have a small selection of bulk flours, oats and grains for purchase. A definite tick of approval in Brisbane's inner-West!
