Sweetie Bakery is an adorable little bakery with, judging by their whole wall of birthday cakes and tarts, a focus on sweet items (for once!). Yes, they do have the typical selection of bread and savoury buns (with a whole shelf dedicated to green onion and pork floss) but it was nice to have more to choose from than the usual half dozen sweet buns.
I gave the sweet pretzel ($45) a try. Maybe it has an actual name, but nothing sums it up better than that: a large sweet bun rolled and wrapped to create a simple knot of dough. I'll confess that it wasn't as flaky as it looked from the outside with those clearly visible layers, but it was still good. There wasn't much to it, so you could appreciate the flavour and texture of the dough. Well priced, generously sized and tasty - what more do you need? ;)
