As mentioned in an earlier review, the small town of Nakusp doesn't have a real bakery; well, according to online research, there *was* a bakery, but that doesn't do much for me.

Still, in such cases, it's always nice to stumble upon a cafe with their own baked goods or sweet treats. Like Broadway Deli, which has a few, but not many baked goods like muffins and squares; that is, nothing really over the top or extraordinary. Just a simple treat to have alongside your coffee or for dessert, because, unfortunately for me, they are, of course, more a hot breakfast and sandwich-lunch place.

 But a Cake Tour at a cafe with limited baked goods is better than no Cake Tour at all. ;) So, from their limited selection, I picked out a classic Nanaimo bar. The bottom had more texture, almost like a mix between a classic brownie and some granola-like chunkiness. Compared to other Nanaimo bars, I thought the chocolate on top was a little too thick and should have been more like a sheet of chocolate... at least, that's how I like them. Good amount of cream in the middle, though; sometimes the cream layer is overpowering and it becomes too rich. Fairly good proportions and, most of all, good taste. Nice place to stop for those looking for something sweet.
