When a town doesn't have a proper bakery, Mimi's Cake Tour is compelled to get a little creative, especially when Kaslo deserves a blip on the map. Of course, Kaslo *is* already on the map, but well, there's never such a thing as too many places reviewed!

An online search will give you one bakery option in the small town of Kaslo: the Front Street Market, an independent grocery store -- the only one in town -- with its own small bakery section surprisingly featuring quite a bit of stuff like squares, pies, and a few shelves of self-serve baked goods like cinnamon buns, danishes and doughnuts. I'd read somewhere that they made some pretty good doughnuts; appearances seem to concur with this and so I was there for the doughnuts.

These doughnuts ($1.39 each) come in three or four basic varieties and most featured this thick, milky glaze and golden brown fried dough. Nice and crunchy on the outside, especially on the apple fritter. Good amount of filling on the jelly doughnut; plump, fluffy dough. There could have been a few more apples, but still, very tasty doughnuts from an unexpected source.
