Firstly I worked my way through a rather nice curried beef pie and latte, then finishing on the ‘Award winning’ vanilla slice. Similar in presentation to it’s competitors at the show, but with a more muted white matte icing, sized appropriately and combined with other items the cost seemed fair and reasonable. The creamy, yellow filling was extremely light and full of vanilla flavour. It’s ratio to the thin layers of pastry was excellent. Though the pastry was fresh and crispy, it was not as buttery and flaky as others I’ve had. It proved an excellent element to chow down with each bite, but for me it wasn’t as memorable.
An excellent pit stop, a very nice vanilla slice and another award winning bakery off the list.
