“We use ingredients you can spell,” laughs Slavita Johnson, who owns Cadeaux Bakery with Eleanor Waterfall. “Eggs, milk, butter, sugar, and flour...that’s about it.” A commitment to simple, carefully sourced ingredients shines through in Cadeaux Bakery’s delicious cakes, croissants, cookies, and other baked goods, making this Railtown bakery a popular spot for both locals and visitors to Vancouver.
“We both have kids and don’t want to be putting chemicals into their bodies, so we use natural ingredients,” Slavita explains. “Our customers appreciate it, especially the young families.” Knowing exactly what goes into each baked good is one advantage of baking from scratch, and the incomparable taste of Cadeaux Bakery’s products is another. Customers know – and taste – the difference that quality ingredients and careful preparation make.
