On a slow amble around Nottingham expecting new discoveries on a town we had stayed in for a few…read moremonths but never fully explored, we were pleasantly delighted when coming across the ugly bread bakery. The name initially made us wonder what weird and wonderful delights this cafe had to offer, and our choice was confirmed when spotting the empty top seats, looking comfy and almost calling our sore legs to have a rest. With the cold weather still around, we craved the comfort of coffee and chocolate and the ugly bread bakery did not disappoint. Upon entrance we were embraced with the smell of fresh bread, and the interior was quirky yet welcoming. When waiting for our coffee there were a huge range of Italian treats on offer to nibble at. The coffee was strong but softened with the milkiness of a cappuccino, and having a salted caramel brownie made the combination heaven. My friend ordered the hot chocolate and white chocolate brownie, and also seemed like he was caught in the same heaven I was. One consisting of a chocolate overload. I wasn't able to finish the whole brownie, it was definitely a very indulgent delight. The ugly bread bakery is averagely priced to most coffee shops and I have the intention to go again to try the pizza! Definitely recommend!

This is a little gem in resurgent Nottingham city center…read more Simple, classic fresh Italian food (which good all Italian food is). It also has the advantage of being a deli with some of authentic brands you won't find in the supermarket. I'm not sure what the name refers too, as all the sanwiches and pizza's looks amazing I had a virgin beef and mozzarella focaccia toasted and ate in and took in the views of the frantic boxing day shoppers doing their business (they do take away too). The bread was stunning, really fresh and soft and baked with sun dried tomatoes and herbs, the mozzarella creamy and the beef yummy, which was nice after all the white meat eaten over Christmas. There was some yummy looking carrot cake, but I was full after the sandwich so I will have to try that next time.

Her BA Honours degree in Fine Art certainly shows. Her cakes are theatre. They are detailed and they have narrative. If the saying 'You eat with your eyes first' is true then your peepers will tell you that these cakes taste like nirvana. Danielle openly admits herself that the visual element often upstages the taste element, but a sample bite of one of her sumptuous creations makes me believe that both are on a par. If you want the highest quality celebration cake, give Danielle a call. Or even better, visit her in the shop and have a good browse of this lovely shopping area of Nottingham, that's stuffed with world-class indies.
