Family-owned Franconian bakeries?
Posted by Jeff R. on 2012-11-06 11:26:07
Where might one locate quality pastry in Franconia, namely the Bamberg region? My three visits there have been mostly fruitless, and I usually settle for something like chocolate croissant (still have yet to find a really tasty one) or something with pecans and cinnamon, which never quite fulfills. Shall I hold out hope or just throw in the towel? I am always confounded to find so many corporate stores and so few mom- and-pop bakeries. Is fresh local pastry a thing of the past? I am itching to satisfy my sweet tooth, so please lead me to some decadent pastry with luscious jam or heavy cream. :) Schönen Dank!
