I have been on a bakery kick as of late. While in Pickering last Saturday, I found this COBS Bread nearby. I headed over because it has strawberry items that are new additions on the menu.
This bakery is in a plaza. Burger King and Scotiabank anchor it.
I parked fairly close to this bakery. I then walked over.
There was a couple ahead of me attempting to place an order. The woman was unsure of what she wanted. The man seemed like he just wanted to leave. They were being helped by a man behind the counter.
I immediately got a friendly woman working with him. She asked me if I needed time. I did.
I figured out what I wanted to order:
- Strawberry danish
- Raspberry and custard danish
- Chocolate croissant
There were a few customers who dropped in after I had. The nice woman returned and asked if I was ready. I was.
I scanned my Breadcrumbs QR code. I then let her know that I was ordering three items.
In the past, at any COBS Bread, I'd get my danish pastries in bags. I never enjoyed them being stacked on top of one another. I'd have to peel off one from the other because the filling from the bottom one adhered to the one of top. This place didn't do it. She put all my items in a box. Nice!
I paid with a credit card. I tapped and was good. I thanked this woman, grabbed my box, and carefully carried it to my car. I then placed it in a reusable bag and drove home.
These pastries were amazing. I had the strawberry danish first. It was so fresh. I loved the strawberries. It was so yummy. I need to get another one.
My go-to danish is the raspberry and custard danish. I love the tartness of the raspberries mixed in with the most perfect custard, in a yummy danish. Excellent!
I had to get a chocolate croissant. I normally do danish pastries only, but I have a weakness for this croissant. It was flaky with the best dark chocolate. It had a light dusting of powdered sugar and dark chocolate drizzle on top. I appreciated that it was slightly sweet.
This bakery stands out being fully stocked with baked goods and bread at 4 pm on a Saturday. When I visit the COBS Bread in Aurora on a Saturday at 4 pm, it's slim pickings.
I loved my experience here. I'd return for more pastries. I should also get some bread next time. This store also has butter tarts. I just want everything!
