Price: $$ 

I'm returning after a week of cross-country travels (with new bakeries to review, of course!) with some more from the Prince Edward County trip.

The Wellington Bakery is one of two? bakeries in the small town of Wellington and they specialize in German/European breads and baked goods in addition to a few classic bakery staples such as cinnamon buns, cookies, turnovers, etc. That's a pretty exciting, unique find -- though naturally, some poppy seed baked goods would have been appreciated. ;) Instead, they had a few German-inspired cakes along with strudels; probably the most "out-there" was the bienenstich.

Wanting something easier to handle and in the mood for some pastry, I decided to give the cherry danish a try ($2-something). The danish dough was soft on the inside with a delicious flaky exterior; the cherry filling was also tasty and the dollops of icing a nice touch. Not too doughy, not too gloopy: a perfect compromise between the two and, yet again, another yummy treat. :)
