Bakeries live by the morning. In a small-city bakery the early batches — pies, bread, cream buns, slices — are often gone well before closing, so regulars learn the rhythm and shop early. It pays to ask what came out of the oven that day rather than choosing from the cabinet alone, and if a celebration cake is on the cards, most bakers want a few days' notice rather than a same-day ask. A useful habit when sizing up any bakery is to judge it on the staples: a plain loaf or a well-made pie tells you more than the showiest item in the cabinet.
On Esk Street in Invercargill's Georgetown, Piece of Cake is a handy, well-rated stop for a fresh bake.
