| - When I was a little girl, one of my favourite things to do was stop at a bakery in Leduc with my mom and come home with a tray of apple strudel. Many of you know just how much I LOVE my apple pie, but strudel, oh my goodness... over the moon for a tray of bakery quality apple strudel.
Today was the first time I ever set foot in Amandine... and can you guess what I found? Oh my goodness, I'm a little girl all over again... all I'm missing is my mom to buy the strudel for me (don't worry, she's alive and well, she just doesn't live anywhere near Calgary!)
I stared at the rest of the baked goods here for darn near 10 minutes trying to decide what to bring home. Do I do a slice of apple strudel? A piece of chocolate cake? A strawberry tart? A pizza bun? A French loaf? It kind of made me wish I had already invited some friends over to hang out for the weekend, because I wanted to buy a little bit of everything.
But a Yelper can only eat so much while it's still fresh and still fit into her Friday night pants-this girl went for the whole tray of apple strudel and a couple of pizza buns. I know, I showed amazing self-restraint.
I'm two slices in. Good luck getting me to share... unless you have some fabulous ice cream to bring me.
PS... Amandine also does dairy-free, gluten-free, eggless or reduced sugar cakes if you're looking for any. Oh, and creme caramels.
