This place is a little family run bakery, which is obviously very popular, and is just a little way off the centre (as it were) of Pudsey. It's not difficult to see why they are so coveted, as soon as you go in you are greeted by a super friendly team (I assumed a husband and wife team, but can't be 100% sure) ready to help you. I went in to browse and found myself instantly attracted to their lovely looking home-made preserves sets. The gentleman asked me if I was ok, which I was, and then apologised for having to turn on his mixer for a moment! It was lovely, and really wasn't a problem. As I had wandered in around 3pm ish the shelves were looking rather bare - the sign of a great bakers - and so I wandered to the glass counter at the front. I didn't want to walk out without something tasty. In the end I settled for a beautiful heart shaped chocolate brownie, complete with raspberry in the centre, for my boyfriend. It was going to be Valentine's day after all! I'm told that it was delicious, so I'm glad I made that choice. I bought a set of six mini breakfast jams as well, for a friend, and they were totally bargainous. I won't say exactly how bargainous, lest she discover how much I spent, though with any luck it'll be the gesture that counts! All in all this is a delightful place to purchase breads, jams, cakes and any other home made goodies. Just get in early to avoid disappointment!

Granted, there are not many tables so it can be hard to grab a seat, but I'd suggest it's worth the wait given what's in store. A few Saturdays ago, treats we're on the agenda. As I'd not been here in ages, we decided to seek out some delectable sustenance here, as that is precisely what I got my friends. I had heard tell these guys do a mean burger, and since I've been banging on about seeking out Leeds' best it seemed only fair to tackle that for lunch. Oh. My. Word. After an enticing wait the food arrived and what lay before me was some kind of demi-god, as far as patties go. A beautifully baked sesame seed bun, with all the fluffy, crispy, freshness you could hope for in a bread cake. The accoutrements included a wonderfully fresh bit of salad, perfectly melted cheddar, and a delightful home made piccalilli. The meat? Seasoned to perfection, juicier than I've known, and cooked like a dream. Slightly pink, like a real burger should be, and a right ruddy messy affair. I was in heaven. Of course, you know all about their award winning cupcakes by now, so I needn't wax lyrical about the white chocolate as raspberry nirvana that I polished off at home, but what you probably didn't know is that I've found a contender for one of Leeds' finest burgers. Try for yourself and let me know how you get on... Moar treats? Check in on Yelp and you get 25% off afternoon tea!

The Sunshine Bakery is a delightful and delicious new addition to Chapel Allerton's row of pretty…read morelittle shops on Harrogate Road. I just love the name - so twee and smile-inducing! As soon as I heard about it I just knew I had to check it out ASAP! I have both the requisite sweet tooth and and a love of all things kitsch and vintage-inspired. Hence I LOVE The Sunshine Bakery! The outside of the shop is painted a sumptuous deep plum colour and the sign features gold, hand-painted lettering with a quaint feel. Inside the walls are covered in oh-so-vintage pink flocked wall paper...but to be honest that's not exactly what your eyes are drawn to with all the tasty treats on display! Anyone with a particular predilection for sweetmeats will be literally drooling all over the shop! The cupcakes cry 'EAT ME' with their generous helpings of many-coloured icing and array of flavours. There are also such delights as champagne truffles, as well as slightly less exciting (though very delicious I'm sure) savoury items including sandwiches and soups as well as tea and coffee. There is a lovely atmosphere at The Sunshine Bakery, with friendly, smiling staff, and the customers seeming very happy to be there and oh so close to their next cupcake fix! I also opted for Eton Mess...it was absolutely delicious! If you live in Chapel Allerton you may find yourself trying desperately to avoid the temptation to visit the Sunshine Bakery daily...luckily for my health I live a reasonably long bike ride away...however, the exercise required to get there will probably just allow me to justify a rampant gorge-fest upon arrival! YUM!

Since I wasn't sure of the little villages around us, I gave Mr. Snarky two options...Nottingham or Lincoln. He decided on Lincoln. When we arrived I noticed a boom in cafes that were now opened and noticed a couple of changes. Of course to my delight my favourite tea room was open again! As we approached though, I did notice a new name and a remodel of the inside... This worried me a bit, but the menu looked the same, so we decided to go in. The waiter was a cheeky fellow, but very nice. We both decided on the sweet Afternoon Tea...yes they have a savoury Afternoon Tea. Mr. Snarky had the Ham Sandwich with Plum Chutney and a slice of the Chocolate Fudge Cake, in addition to the fruit scone that comes with. I chose the Tuna Sandwiches and a slice of the Carrot Cake. The tea comes in the original patterned china that the old Steep Hill Tea Rooms used, but they now use bags of tea... no more loose tea and tiny strainers :(. The Afternoon Tea Platter came out looking magnificent, but with the wrong sandwich for me. The portion sizes were quite large so if you are thinking you should have lunch first, don't... have Afternoon Tea for lunch. Mr. Snarky went to let the staff know that they had given me cheese sandwiches instead of tuna. They apologised and brought out tuna, but told us to keep the cheese, although Mr. Snarky would be the only one able to partake given my intolerance. They don't give a choice of scones anymore...so fruit it is. And you do not get a small container of clotted cream that is so thick it spreads like butter. You now get a large , single serving of Rhodda's clotted cream...but it is so liquidy that it gets a bit messy. The scone was lovely and the sandwiches were quite big...not dainty at all. Mr. Snarky's Chocolate Fudge Cake was absolutely lovely and so rich. My Carrot Cake was moist, but lacking in some spices, making it sweet, but a bit bland. They do not take cards, cash only and make sure you have exact change because apparently they do not have much change...according to our waiter.
