d'Anjou Bakery

August 2-


We had pastries this morning at d'Anjou bakery, located on route 2 between Leavenworth and Wenatchee. I've driven by this bakery many times and each time thinking that I should really go in and check out the wares. Well Kyle and I went in this morning, and we were not disappointed. We both give a hearty thumbs up.  Kyle had a French Cinnamon Roll and I had their "French Toast" basically a pastry with almonds all over it. Both pastries were based on a croissant-like dough, so the Cinnamon Roll was crispy on the outside and sweet and chewy on the inside.  Nothing was too greasy or messy or buttery and the level of sweetness was perfect- you weren't overwhelmed by the croissanty-ness of the dough.  The French toast was the same dough with an almond-paste filling and sliced almonds on top, again just sweet enough to balance the dough and the almond flavor was really groovy.  Big thumbs up.
