On our way to Minehead we decided to have a cheeky stop off in order to avail ourselves of one or two things from Winnie’s Bakery in Burnham on Sea, as memories have lingered, ever since Nigel bought us back one of their mature Cheddar and Marmite loaves on his last visit just before Christmas last year. Well, it would have been rude not too.
Winnie’s did not disappoint …….
…… and several, (well quite a few, really), considered purchases were made……
…… because we just couldn’t make up our minds, deciding one of each was a better proposition …….
…… than the thought of leaving anything behind, unsampled.
Let’s also say that a considerable amount of tearing and sharing went on, not only during an impromptu, alfresco picnic on Burnham’s sea front …….
…… but also in the back of Lu’s car (thankfully, she’s not precious about crumbs on said back seat) and then the beach at Minehead when we got there.
Never have wedges of bread pudding, lardy cakes and assorted exotic loaves been devoured with such pure, unadulterated gusto, it was just pure heaven in a Winnie’s brown paper bag.
We all got rather excited when we discovered that Winnie’s have an online shop, but were then sadly crushed when we found that delivery was only within the local region. So it looks as if we might be visiting Burnham On Sea on a more regular basis from now on especially as Lu reckons we could do it quite easily in a day ……… what are we like?

You and Winnie have got my mouth watering, yet again.
I'm a vegan who cheats, and I would have cheated and had a mature cheddar and bacon "thingy."
If it was as good as I expect, I doubt that there would have been any tearing 'n sharing of that, at least.
Last post you were making my eyes water , this one you are making my mouth water - what are you like? I'm going to browse the shop now. But I know I can't order anything and it will take a while for us to get down there, but a girl can dream.... JantheFan x
