<strong>Bread and Chocolate</strong><br /><em>29 S. Main St., 228-3330</em></p><p>We rounded out our bakery tour with a fitting taste treat: some bread and chocolate from Bread and Chocolate. When you’re named after something you sell, you better make it well, and Bread and Chocolate sure did. If it came down to it, we were ready to eat an entire loaf!

<strong>The Crust and Crumb</strong><br /><em>126 N. Main St., 219-0763, thecrustandcrumb.com</em></p><p>We scored some of the Crust and Crumb’s titular crumbs via its raspberry crumb bar. This was a thing of beauty! Crunchy and chewy at once, the bar satisfied our taste buds with its sweet, sweet raspberry filling. Crumbs are no longer for the birds!

<strong>In A Pinch</strong><br /><em>146 Pleasant St., 226-2272, inapinchcafe.com</em></p><p>In A Pinch staff recommended the lemon square as one of the bakery’s finest items. We have to agree! The filling was moist, the crust was crunchy and crumbly and the lemon flavor was sweet and not overly tart, as many lemon squares tend to be.

<strong>Cafe Indigo</strong><br /><em>128 Hall St., 224-1770, cafeindigo.com</em></p><p>“Don’t you tell anybody about this place,” one Cafe Indigo patron pleaded with us. “It’s our little secret!” Indeed, the Hall Street location does keep Indigo under the radar a bit, but its vegan carrot cake is the stuff of legend. Who needs cream cheese these days, anyway?

<strong>New England Cupcakery</strong><br /><em>28 S. Main St., 724-6464, necupcakery.com</em></p><p>When we asked owner Lia Liporto which cupcake variety was the shop’s top offering, she didn’t hesitate for a moment before telling us to try the rolo cupcake. “It just reminds me of being a little kid eating cupcakes – it’s ooey, gooey and smeared all over your face!” Liporto said. We went to fork and knife to consume this sweet confection – taboo in the cupcake world, to be sure, but a must for the heavily bearded.
