When we went houseboating, we had sufficient meals (along
with the fish we caught) to last us through our trip. So, when we went
exploring the towns of Bobcaygeon and Fenelon Falls, what we checked out were
bakeries for our snacks and dessert.
We absolutely loved the quaint community of Bobcaygeon. The
shops were so delightful, offering goodies and merchandise we do not typically
see in the malls over in Toronto. Several Bigley’s stores were located near the
locks, selling great (albeit pricey) shoes and clothing. We also spent hours
checking out the many stores selling stuff for the home—mostly cottage décor
and quite lovely.
We had coffee at the Kawartha Coffee Co and checked out the
local Foodland grocery.

We then went to Bobcaygeon Bread Co/Bakery and had the
Best.Toffee Bar.Ever.

I only got one bar as I was getting hungry and needed a
snack. Hubby, Grandma and the girls liked it so much as well that we had to go
back (after walking over a block) to buy some more! They also had good Date
Squares which Grandma and Hubby like. The girls also enjoyed a couple of cookies.
We tried some Butter Tarts but found they were okay but nothing to call home
about.
Over at Fenelon Falls, the vibe was much different. It was
busier and the stores offered more vintage goods/antiques. We had some ice
cream (Kawartha Dairy, of course!) before we walked around.
After all that
walking we needed another snack. We checked out the Little Pie Shack, a cute
pink store selling freshly-baked goodies.

We got a 6 for $12 assortment of
tarts and bars. The girls liked the blueberry tart over all the other bars and
tarts. I wasn’t too wowed but I would go back, should there be a chance, to try
out all the other goodies.
Sugar-happy, we definitely enjoyed our baked delights over
at these quaint towns.
