Default Local bakery low carb stuff

Just came from one of our local bakeries which has jumped on the LC
bandwagon with a vengance. They have a dedicated LC baker who buys the
necessary LC raw products and only cooks LC stuff. When I met with her, she
complained that her prices were high, but they just reflected the costs she
has to deal with in purchasing the LC stuff. I don't really care about the
prices - I'll just buy less or what I can afford, but to have the selection
she has come up with is great.
They are currently making 4 types of bread - flax, sunflower, plain and
cinnamon. Three types of buns including hot dog and hamburger. Pizza
shells, pita shells, cheese sticks. And as of today - desserts - macaroons,
almond cookies, bran/flax muffins and chocolate brownies.

I'm in heaven - I just hope enough people keep buying so that they stay in
the market.

If this can happen in our small town, it's happening everywhere!

Sounds good. Do you know the net carb count of their products?

I'd be very suspicious of the carb counts. There are so many newbies to
LC that they don't really understand the issue is with starches as well as
sugars. I bought an LC cookie from an online vendor. It turned out to be 28
carbs! It still is lower than the regular one, but still unacceptable to me.

Our local newspaper did a feature two days ago on a local bakery
(Carole's, I think, in Providence RI) that has gone into low-carb products
in a big way.

Yes, one should at least scrutinize the ingredients to see whether
they look LC.

But organic is not the same as low carb - although baking
could be both.
