| - I love Cobs Bread. I've always loved them...I was sad they closed their Kensington Market location as that one was the closet one to me. This weekend I was up in the Spadina & Bloor area and found this one (their 370 Spadina location)! We immediately went in and found out ...hey...it was their 10th birthday! They were giving out birthday cake scones (chocolate scone bottom, vanilla scone top and topped with icing and sprinkles), they also had a spin the wheel with free bread you could win if you spend $10.
Tip: always sign up to their mailing list because every month they tend to send coupons that include a free loaf of bread with purchase.
Their scones are a bit pricy...1.95 each, so 6 scones is about $12, but this month they had a email coupon where with the purchase of 6 scones (or 6 tarts), you get a free loaf of bread (white or whole wheat) for free (that's about a $4-5 value).
Their scones are really good though, fluffy, not too sweet....WAY better then Starbucks or other places. :-) Last month they had the same type of coupon but it was for 6 cinnamon buns (which were also quite good).
I digress....I get excited too excited for coupons. So we bought $12 of scones and got a free loaf of bread, spun the wheel because it was their 10th anniversary, and won a half baguette (2.95). That's a lot of baked goods!
Other then the fact that we are now SWIMMING in baked goods (since we already bought our baked goods for the week that morning....and had a baking exchange in the evening), we are super happy to have a house FULL of delicious scones, breads, cookies ...
I just need to find time to go to the gym to work off all this extra carbs. :-P
Happy 10th Birthday Cobs Bread! We love you and hope to see you on your 15th and 20th and 25th birthday!
