Rec Bakery in SB for scones, macaroons etc..

I am hosting a baby shower and I need a bakery that makes really good scones and I can order a bunch. Any suggestions?

Also, any suggestions for places that make macaroons, madeline's, etc. 

TIA! 

Re: Rec Bakery in SB for scones, macaroons etc..

  • I don't have much experience with a variety of bakeries in the SB but I know you could order from Peet's in bulk. They have good scones (except their LF/NF ones but the concept of a LF/NF scone is lost on me because they turn to bricks w/o eggs and cream). They list macaroons and madeleines but I don't know if they have those at every location.

    GL!!!

  • I don't know if they deliver or if you're willing to drive that far for pick-up, but I've heard really good things about Gayle's Bakery in Capitola. My friend almost got a wedding cake there (she didn't because they wouldn't deliver to her wedding site in Carmel Valley, but otherwise she loved them.) But they do lots of other things other than cake.

    Oooh, Gayles Smile  That's where we got our cake!  I've never had their scones but I'm sure they're delicious.   Bakeries in the SB I like (though I don't know specifically about their scones) - Flower Flour in Willow Glen and Fleur de Cocoa in LG.

  • I'm not sure if they have scones, but I like Bijan Bakery. They are off 280 in Saratoga and I believe they have another branch in downtown SJ by the Fairmont.
  • Thanks ladies. I'm probably too lazy to drive to Capitola though...

    I just saw Icing on the Cake has scones.. might try them this weekend to see if they are good. I'll check out the other suggestions too.

    I figured, but maybe call and see if they'd deliver?

  • I was going to suggest Prolific Oven.  They have a couple locations in the SB.
