Charly's Bakery

After 20 years of being a cake addict and 3 years of living in Cape Town, I thought it was a great injustice that I had never been to Charly’s bakery. So… I finally had the opportunity to go to their shop and it was so amazing. Initially you are underwhelmed by the size, because when you see it on TV it appears larger than it is in person. However, the cosiness of it takes you back to your childhood and makes you feel like you are about to host a tea party with your cabbage patch kids. The bakery is always quite full, but as you wait in the queue you are able to read the awesome story about how Charly’s came about, thus making it feel like you have not been waiting long. The final thing that makes being at Charly’s such an awesome experience is that, you are able to see the ladies of Charly’s Bakery designing their cakes and having a blasé chat in the back. Charly’s also has a variety of tasty baked goodies and I will definitely be going back there soon.
