Hi all,

Well, before the last two busy weeks occurred I was able to check out Bittersweet at Wellington Point.

I stumbled across this small patisserie one morning while looking for somewhere to have breakfast.

Bittersweet has all your favorites handmade from scratch by pastry chef Noelene Rogers.

With the help of Gracious, I sampled a few treats like the lemon meringue tart, hazelnut mousse, white chocolate mud cake, sticky date and cumquat pudding. Mind you, not all at once though!

I found the little treats very sweet and decadent, and would suggest sharing is the best way to goso you can sample a few other delicacies.

While the shop is small it takes advantage of the space, with lovely displays and a variety of items to browse through, such as their own type of chutneys and a variety of fresh pasta and condiments.

If I were to own a shop, this is what I would want. A mixture of cakes, breads and specialty items has made this a little favourite of mine.

The only downside is they do not have a website. But I have added some photos so you can see for yourself.

There’s also a cafĂ© two doors up – Refueled – that I think I need to check out before I leave!

Lil.

A move!

Well, Lil is leaving me here in the big smoke and traipsing back to the sleepy town of Bundaberg. Yep, she's going back to fresh air and beautiful beaches and relaxed paces... but she's leaving delicious coffee, gorgeous cupcakes and breakfasts by the Bay.

Ha.

So now you'll get the best from two places! Lil has committed to share all of her cupcake making adventures online (even if they fail), and I will try my best to remember to take photos of the things I eat before I destroy them with my cutlery.

Happy eating,

Gracious
