Pastry on the Peninsula Part 2 (Olympic and Kitsap Peninsulas) 
Victoria Cooksey

Last week we majorly dove into pastries/desserts in Port Townsend, WA.  This week we take our sugar rush to some other WA towns that are around 40 to 50ish minute drives away from Port Townsend. 

Port Angeles, WA gives us Cock-a-Doodle Doughnuts.  http://www.cockadoodledoughnuts.com/ This first pic is of thier maple bacon doughnut.  I sure hope I had you at bacon!


I like to call this picture sailboat through a doughnut.  Grab some doughnuts, and then head over to the water to devour them with a great view.  Not pictured, but extremely tasty, is their buttermilk doughnut. (On a travel note, Port Angeles is where you may catch a ferry over to Victoria Canada).



Silverdale visitors will dig Bella Belle Cupcakes http://bellabellacupcakes.com/  Some of the best cupcakes I've had.  Not too sweet, and the cake part is as good as the icing.  A win win combo!  I recommend the s'mores and the raspberry champagne ones.  Check their website for which days flavors are available.  The also offer some of them in mini sizes, but I'm a glutton, so I go for full size!



Port Gamble may be the cutest little town ever! (Ghost hunters may want to check out this town too). http://www.portgamblegeneralstore.com/ The General Store Cafe offers a wide selection of desserts. This one was rhubarb, but there are many choices.


Chocolate lovers be sure to check out The Tea Room in Port Gamble for homemade chocolates. Phone: 360-297-4225.

Poulsbo has a super delicious selection of chocolates at Boehm's chocolates of Poulsbo http://www.boehmspoulsbo.com/

I may have saved the best for last: Sluys Bakery in Poulsbo, WA.

Just looking in the window makes me drool!  When you walk in such an amazing bakery smell hits you and it will cause you to lose all will power! Plus, Poulsbo is just gorgeous! Definitely take your bakery purchases over to eat by the waterfront.



My viking cup attacks! (Cinnamon roll filled with cream cheese icing).

Sluys Bakery also has these chocolate Viking doughnuts (also in glazed) that are big enough to share, but I wouldn't! :)


Hungry for more chocolate and desserts?  Check out my comedy cooking video on youtube Victoria Cooksey's Random Dish: Figs and Chocolate.


Hope this 2 part dessert topic as helped satisfy your sweet tooth!
