Victor's Bakery

We've recently stumbled upon this short clip shot at Victor's Bakery, Mġarr more than 3 years ago!

These were some of the best Maltese pastries we ever tasted - which were also appreciated by hundreds and hundreds of guests from all around the globe!

We have great memories of this bakery and these skilled artisans.

Thanks for all the years of service and heavenly tastes!

Do you buy regularly from such traditional bakeries? What do you think of Maltese food?

Baked goodies

It's always a pleasure visiting bakeries. The nice smell of baked goodies can be sensed from far away. Many say that traditional recipes are dying out...certainly not true. Some are still committed to bake the traditional way and sell the most tasty crispy bread and delicious sweets ever. The buns showing in this photo are not just any buns. Their texture is light and their sweet taste makes you feel nostalgic. Bread and buns are two of the few items one can find at traditional bakeries. Almond rings, croissants, coconut sweets and fig rolls would make excellent treats to a tea party, Holy Communion or Baptism party.

As kids we used to smell and taste these goodies more often. Nowadays life is so busy that we rarely stop when we smell cakes freshly baked. To keep these traditions going, we Maltese need to support such bakers and make them feel proud of the work they do.
