Why, yes, there's another bakery in Wellington. Located in an otherwise insignificant mini-plaza, It's Wickedly Sweet is a smaller bakery with a sit-down cafe, though perhaps the baked goods -- with a selection of all the classic standards including pies, muffins, packaged cookies and butter tarts -- are more exciting than the cafe, which serves K-cup coffee and milk in those plastic capsules.
Nevertheless, everything is clearly labelled and all baked goods are very reasonably priced, though I always believe that bakeries should avoid saran-wrapping their baked goodies; I've seen it in more than one place and probably mention it too often... Yes, I realize it does keep things fresher, but it's just not very appealing and, especially for items with a bit of crunch like muffin tops or danishes, it kind of ruins that just-baked texture. There has to be a better way to showcase your baked goods -- br proud of your products, let them shine!
I grabbed a lemon loaf cake, which was something slightly different from the usual repertoire. This was an individually baked loaf with a generous coating of lemony icing. The cake itself was soft and moist with a good, sweet and slightly sour flavour, although it didn't taste completely fresh. Pretty good.
