Jessie's Kitchen in Albert Road, in Broughty Ferry has just scooped the prestigious Scottish Homebaker of the Year Award 2012.
The Broughty Ferry Café opened in June 2011 and has quickly established itself as a regular haunt of locals and visitors who appreciate its warm welcome and delicious food.
The independent professional reviewer who visited the Café and sampled its wonderful range of home made cakes made the following observations:
"On entering Jessie's you find a bright, airy and definitely 'Pink' room by by- passing the extensive display of cakes in the inner hall. The young and attentive staff give this place a trendy feel. Very clean and a good light lunch and high-tea menu. I was overwhelmed with the not one but two boxes of cakes I was given to sample at my leisure and this alone proved confidence in their bakers' ability. Three bakers take responsibility for the excellent cakes, Mary-Jane, Alison and Nicola. ...... They (the cakes) were wonderful particularly the blueberry iced sponge and the Florentine-FAB. The Apple and Caramel iced cake was a new one to me and was incredible."
Congratulations to staff at Jessie's Kitchen for this national award. Their Café is another fine example of the outstanding excellence of shops and local services in Broughty Ferry. By my recokoning this is the fifth such national award this year for Ferry retail businesses. This is one of the reasons why central Broughty Ferry is such an attractive place to access shops and local services.
