Congratulations @gatowpg!! I'm so excited for you!! Your new bakery is absolutely beautiful, and Winnipeg is lucky to have you... Especially Winnipeg vegans! . Today C and I picked up this box of meringue and cookies, a loaf of sesame sourdough bread, and a (not vegan) "boujee" choux 🤩 I haven't had lemon meringue in more years than I can count, and yours was beyond dreamy! 🍋💛 . I'm so glad I took this quick snap before we drove away because *of course* things shifted around in the box driving to Teulon, Gimli, and back to Winnipeg 😅🙃🤭 But lemme tell ya, squished and still delish! . Thanks for gracing Winnipeg this yumminess!! .

The age is focused on the tart in the upper right corner, and the rest is a little blurry. The second is an interior view of the bakery showing a shelf nearly sold out of bread, a counter, and the store's circular logo on the wall. There is a bouquet of flowers on the counter, as well as a jar of tulips growing from their bulb without soil, and a shelf full of plants over the sign. . #winnipeg #gatowpg #bakery #lemon #lemonmeringue #aquafaba #vegandessert #cookies #winnipegvegan #veganwinnipeg #winnipegeats #food #yummy #saturday (at Winnipeg) https://www.instagram.com/p/CM8VnuUgjuM/?igshid=1wc2gkxq38gsv

Can we take a moment to admire how incredibly perfect these macarons and croissants are baked by the magically talented @gatowpg ? . I have had only a few vegan croissants over the past 22 years... The one in Barcelona was crunchy like layers of rolled filo dough; the one in Berlin was weirdly hollow inside; the one in Vienna was more like bread rolled into a crescent shape. This croissant was not only crispy and lightly sweet on the outside, but fluffy and full on the inside! Texture, flavor, scent... every so perfect!! My partner assures me there was not a single thing about it that could indicate it was made without butter, milk, or eggs! Incredible! . And the macarons... Melt in your mouth joy!! My first time ever having them, actually, because I've never seen them made without egg, never mind the butter cream or ganache. Wow!!! . Thank you for bringing this level of plant based pastry skill to Winnipeg, @gatowpg ❣️🥐✨ . #croissant #macarons #vegan #veganfood #food #sweet #delicious #magic #baking #blackownedbusiness #Winnipeg (at Winnipeg, Manitoba) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBWdpo5g1GR/?igshid=tug2olh8kinw
