Bakery:
Spicer's Bakery & Deli
Address: 2386 Main St #1, London, ON
Style: Canadian, Doughnuts
Price: $$
Rather an unlikely bakery franchise, Spicers actually has three locations in and around the London area; this one is their original location. Specializing in classic, home-style baking and selling simple treats like squares, cookies and pies, the focus is nonetheless on their doughnuts. At least, I would give them the highly attractive title of "doughnut bakery". Attractive for me, that is. ;)
Therefore, it shouldn't come as a surprise that I came away with a box of them. They have a decent selection of classics like sprinkled ring doughnuts along with a couple more unique types such as the Black Forest. My box contained a Boston cream, blueberry fritter, jam-filled and the croissant.The round ones were good, but didn't quite stand out. When ordering, the croissant wasn't labelled so I asked what it was and the worker replied "it was just a deep-fried croissant with glaze". It's almost laughable what an understatement that was... the croissant was the best one! Crunchy, flaky, a little rich -
just a deep-fried croissant with glaze, indeed.
