Upper Village Market. Cinnamon Bun, Chocolate Chunk Cookie and More Review.

I got an array of baked goods and pepperettes, they do also make to order subs and wraps (like at Subway) but I did not try them.

Cinnamon bun: it tasted sour, a little like cleaner and I absolutely hated it, I had to spit it out and throw it away 0/5. I wanted to note I did share these items and they felt it was fine and did not share my thoughts on the flavour, so something was wrong for me personally, not that there was something wrong with the bun. (This happens sometimes when you eat an item and something tastes disgusting or inedible but others eating it do not agree, it's very strange.)

Cream horn: one had mold halfway through 0/5. The other one was fine and mold-free but I felt it was not very good, the filling was better than the pastry but neither were enjoyable 2/5. I wanted to note these were individually wrapped, so the one with mold did not touch the other one and I did cut the "good" one into pieces anyway, to share it and to check each piece before eating it.

Banana muffin: it was dry, a bit too dense and boring in flavour but not terrible, not enjoyable to eat and barely tasted like banana 2/5.

Chocolate chunk cookie: it was really good and the chocolate chunks were my favourite part but I just didn't love it due to the texture, as it felt like it was previously cold and the thinness of the cookie threw me off, I prefer thicker cookies. Overall it was really good but I wasn't wowed by the rest of the cookie and the chunks alone cannot carry it 4/5.

Apple pastry: it was good, just too soft and not as baked as I'd like and the filling was fine. I just don't love most apple pastries, so I would not buy it again but I'd eat it if offered 3.5/5.

Hot pepperettes: I thought they were good, a little spicy but not enough for me personally and they did have a good texture and chew, I just prefer them a bit dryer. They were not as flavourful and spicy as other ones I've had but I did not enjoy the aftertaste 3/5.

I don't think I'd buy anything from them again, even the items I would buy again, as I wouldn't want to go all the way there for them and I'd rather go elsewhere, as most of this review was a fail.
