Best of Canberra: Pastries

Not sure there really is a best. There’s just different types of awesome.

Yup, Silo and Flute are solid. For me it’s silo for treats, Flute for savoury.

Da Rosario are wonderful, but I haven’t had anything involving pastry from them.

Bruno’s is truly fabulous, but more for the bread, IMHO, tho their pastry and apple thingies are pretty flash. (Try the milk bread. Yes yes, $7 or whatever it is for a small loaf of bread. But it’s so good. Then walk up to road to Tuto Continental, the best deli in C Town by a country mile, and get some cold cuts to have on it. Brilliant.)

Sausage roles from Dream Cuisine are seriously posh. As are their made to order sit-down-to-eat pies.

If you live northside and don’t want to travel too far, Knead at Belco Markets answers handsomely, but isn’t in the same league at the abovementioned outfits.

I’m not familiar with A Baker at newacton, but I’m hazarding a guess it might be worth including on this list, but I base that purely on what I’ve seen behind glass (and I may have had a few drinks by that stage, too), so might be way off the mark.

Dream Cuisine in Fyshwick! Their sausage rolls (technically pastry…) are some of the best in Canberra.

mama tossolini’s tiramisu is pretty good! and though some have had less than excellent experiences there, dream cuisine do some nice stuff, too.

Ah c’mon, you’re not being fair to Baker’s Delight.

Bean and Grain Fyswick Markets and also opening in Dickson.

Not the cheapest in town, but he’s good. Afterall, he’s Swiss

Flute v Silo.

The end.

Da Rosario on London Circuit has great Italian style sweets. Same people who own Mezzalira I believe.
