Anastasia's Bakery is a hidden gem, nestled into the countryside a mere 10 miles from Potsdam. Not…read moreonly are the coffee and espresso drinks wonderful, but her desserts and pastries are truly exquisite. I have the privilege of knowing Anastasia personally, and I can say without hesitation that her baked goods are the best I've ever had... It's no wonder she graduated at the top of her class from Paul Smiths College. Especially noteworthy are the lemon pound cake, fruit tartlets, and cinnamon buns. She is also an insanely talented cake decorator and pulls out all the stops to make sure her customers are happy. While her bakery will be temporary closed while she is starting her family, I have no doubt her business will continue to thrive when she returns.

I haven't been to the bakery in Chesterville, but they have a stall at the Westboro Farmers' Market…read moreby my house and I've tried their Crunchy Marshmallow Brownie Squares and they are delicious. These squares haunt my dreams, that's how good they are! There's a layer of brownie, then a thick layer of gooey marshmallow then a peanut buttery chocolate spread on top that has crisped rice in it. It's heavenly, and only $3 for a good sized piece. I had a chat with the man manning the stall and he said he was the owner's dad. He was super nice and we chatted a bit and I asked him where the bakery was, and he said Chesterville. I asked him where that was and he said 45 minutes southeast of Ottawa, and told me a bit about Chesterville. He also said they are frequently at the Farmers' Markets in Westboro and Lansdowne. If you are in Chesterville, I would definitely recommend checking out the dessert squares at The Rite Bite. Or if you are an urbanite like me, check them out at the Farmers' Markets, lol. Can't wait to get more squares! ;)

However, given this luxury look, you should expect the prices to also give that same energy because these desserts are pricey! We ordered a total of 3 desserts and 4 teas, each dessert was around $11-$13... i think the total for everything after tax was close to $70... so though the presentation of the desserts were lovely and gorge!! The prices.... In this economy.... Is crazy. It's good to maybe try it once, twice, or for special occasions, but definitely not something to get regularly :P
