Taunton Bakery is located just east of Whitby, in the Somerville and Taunton Road West area of Oshawa. The small and quaint bakery features healthy deli sandwiches, some yummy treats and fresh loaves of bread. The shop is only a few minutes from my work, which is why I went to check them out. I also had the chance to meet the owner of the Oshawa bakery, Ying, who seemed quite humble and hardworking. Despite the language barrier, we were able to chat and share some stories.
It took me some time to decide what to order … but for lunch, I ordered a whole grain bun – which you can pick up yourself in the front of the store – complete with chicken, Havarti cheese (yum!) and lettuce. It tasted great, although I was quite tempted to walk out with a piece of Heart Chocolate cake. It sure looked delicious, but I think I will save that for my next round at Taunton Bakery.
While researching Taunton Bakery, I stumbled across some of the wedding cakes and desserts they’ve prepared. All beautiful and lovely pieces.
If you’re from the Durham Region and are looking for a quick bite to eat, or for some local catering, check them out. Drop by 133 Taunton Road West, or give them a call at (905) 723 – 6484. Be sure to tell them A Day in Durham sent you.
YUM! Stopping by from the Ladies Link up. Your Maine Coon pic brought me over!

Oh… how I love fresh baked bread!!!! I am following you, by the way 🙂 although it does seem quite stalkerish to be saying that… found you through the blog hop and would love it if, when you have time, you would check out my blog. http://www.feelingtheemptynest.blogspot.com Thanks 🙂
Love to Nicky. Just stopped by and I love your site. I will be back … and i must say, you gave me the urge to go clothes shopping and do a follow up post to yours. 🙂
Just Linking with my Ladies. Your pictures aren’t helping with my diet! Loved your post though.

Oh man, bread is my weakness Kate … I tried to hold myself back. Everything in moderation. 🙂
I loved your description of the lunch that you had Emily and the images in the bakery are very good… but i would have never left the place without trying the Raisin Butter Tarts 🙂
