Foraging For Carbs: Recipes from the Old Apothecary Bakery

By Laura MacLeod

In May of 2015, professional pastry chef Laura MacLeod's dream became a reality when she opened the doors of her bakery, The Old Apothecary Bakery & Cafe (known locally as TOA) in downtown Halifax, Nova Scotia. For over six years, TOA welcomed countless customers who became friends, with delicious desserts and memories to last a lifetime.

A tribute to her beloved bakery, this cookbook includes all of your TOA favourites, from the Chocolate Eclairs and the Butterscotch Peanut Butter Miso Cookies, to the Salted Caramel Brownies and the Carolina Key Lime Pie Squares. Filled with personal stories and beautiful photos, Laura also takes you on a fun journey through the Canadian classics of her childhood, staples from Grammy's old cookbooks, and recipes discovered during her travels.

Whether you're a former customer or a home baker looking to up their dessert game, Foraging For Carbs takes you above and beyond the basics of baking, by walking you through desserts that are slightly more challenging. With this cookbook, you can recreate some of your favourite sweet treats right in your own kitchen.
