8 Bread Bakeries We Love In San Francisco
Ah, bread. From slim, airy baguettes to nutty whole grain rounds, there is a style to fit every taste and occasion. No list of bakeries in San Francisco would be complete without Acme, Tartine, a Mexican bakery, a few baking cooperatives, and some old-school Italian-American purveyors.A Sandwich a Day: Hi-Rise Bakery's Sin Sandwich in Cambridge, MA
Buttery brioche slices are schmeared with Nutella and dark Valrhona chocolate, griddled until melty, and dusted with powdered sugar. Sweets suckers, beware; health nuts, be damned.Snapshots from Israel: Rugelach from Marzipan Bakery in Jerusalem
These are very different from any rugelach I've ever tried. Many American Jews tend towards cinnamon-sprinkled, raisin-dotted rugelach with a crispy, flaky exterior. Marzipan rugelach are shamelessly rich, practically oozing a chocolate filling. The dough is still tender and somewhat flaky but certainly not crisp. A single bite of these two-inch treats nearly sent me into a sugar coma.Tasting Tour: A Guide to Paris Baked Goods
Any food lover traveling to Paris could easily spend weeks, months, or years gobbling up all the serious eats the City of Lights has to offer. From the brasseries, boulangeries, the bistros, and beyond, it's almost too much to take in. So we decided to turn to our friend David Lebovitz to get a handle on a manageable bite of the France's capital city — its baked goods.Cook the Book: The Grand Central Baking Book
With so many cookbooks piling up in this office, we had to add a second Cook the Book this week! —The Mgmt. Those of you who live in the Pacific Northwest are probably already familiar with The Grand Central Bakery. Founded by Gwenyth Bassetti over 35 years ago the bakery pioneered artisanal baking movement in the area and expanded to a mini empire of bakeries in the Seattle and Portland areas. Piper Davis, Bassetti's daughter has since taken over the family business and has recently come out with a cookbook filled with all of the sweet and savory baked goods they've become known for. With the help of pastry chef Ellen Jackson the two have compiled The Grand Central Baking...The West Coast Pink Bakery Box Theory
Pink box from Voodoo Doughnuts in Portland, Oregon. [Flickr: mulmatsherm] There are many cultural differences between the West and East coasts but it takes a true doughnut eater to notice the one involving different-colored bakery boxes. When Jessie Oleson of Cakespy (and our own baking blogger) moved out west, she spotted the Pepto Bismol-colored boxes after being so used to white ones. It turns out the difference has something to do with Cambodia (yes, we're all over the map here). According to an "Ask Chris" column in Los Angeles Magazine: Cambodians fleeing the Khmer Rouge in the late 1970s arrived in large numbers in Southern California, where they were recruited by Winchell’s. At the time the coated, greaseproof boxes...Sweet Tooth's Guide To San Francisco's Mission District
The San Francisco Chronicle follows the “Mission Sugar Trail” around the city’s Mission District, finding all sorts of doughnuts, pies, cookies, and ice cream shops along the way....Bacon Peanut Butter Chocolate Cupcake
We can never get enough bacon. A bacon cupcake? Bring it. This organic bacon peanut butter chocolate cupcake gets whipped up by Michelle Garcia at the Bleeding Heart Bakery in Chicago. She's dear to my heart: I've seen her episode of Food Network Challenge: Extreme Cakes way too many times. In a perfect world, this would count as breakfast.

From April 13 to 19, I traveled around Chile with two other American food journalists on a culinary media trip. Here's another snapshot from that week. —Robyn Lee Having only been exposed to the skinny, sugar-coated, star-shaped variety of churros, I was surprised when I came across the completely different looking Chilean version at a bakery in Temuco. A churro in Chile is like an elongated hot dog bun-shaped doughnut sandwich filled with a layer of golden dulce de leche. The dough of this churro was a bit on the heavy side, but I can't say no to sweet bread slathered in sweet, creamy goodness. Not until I get diabetes, at least....Hot Topics: Technique of the Week | The Food Lab
