A brioche bun filled with currant and cranberry, topped with a citrus simple syrup and generously smothered with cinnamon cardamom icing, these are what dreams are made of.

Have you heard of the Goderich Free Little Pantry?
Its slogan reads “give what you can, take what you need”, and with 3 locations currently in Goderich, it is meeting the needs of many in our community. According to Perth Huron United Way, 1 in 6 Canadian children live in a household struggling to put food on the table.
From Thursday, March 23- Thursday, March 30, Cait’s Cafe will be collecting cash donations in our mini pantry box to help supply the Goderich community pantry boxes.
If your needs are regular, the local food banks are a great option to get nutritious supplies and are located at Salvation Army on Suncoast, and St. Vincent de Paul on Macewan St. during their food bank hours.
Visit www.goderichfreelittlepantry.com for more details, and keep your eyes open for the Goderich Free Little Pantry’s first fundraiser in May.
At Sawchuk Accessible Solutions, founder, Julie Sawchuk “…strive(s) to simplify accessibility so you fully understand why it matters and how to make your spaces and services more accessible for everyone”.
Julie consulted with us to create a simple and comprehensive study of the interior and exterior spaces in our cafe. This consultation resulted in an accessible information page on our website that provides pictures, and descriptions of the various spaces in our cafe. See www.caitscafe.ca —> origins --> accessibility
This is available for anyone to view before visiting our cafe, so you can feel safe, comfortable, and welcomed.
We highly recommend working with Julie to come up with a way of showing your current and future customers how your space is set-up and how you can improve accessibility, simply.

I started my morning off with an apple danish, and basically, I’m not sure how to top that.
Our handmade croissant dough, filled with our signature apple pie filling made with local apples, topped with our cream cheese icing… there is nothing that my heart loves more… except maybe my children and husband…
Do yourself a favour and get.one.now.

How to make the perfect espresso:
From Reuters.com
STICK TO THE RULES
Following are the rules for making a perfect espresso as explained by Luca Mastantuoni, who trains foreign clients at Lavazza, a leading Italian coffee roaster:
-- pressure in the machine should be kept at nine atmospheres.
-- water should be brought to 90-95 degrees Celsius (194-203 degrees Fahrenheit), not to a boiling point.
-- freshly ground coffee should be used within one day;
-- time of brewing a standard 30 ml (1.01 ounce) cup of espresso should be 25 to 30 seconds.
-- the coffee should be drunk within two minutes after it was prepared or it starts losing its delicate bouquet.
-- crema is the best indicator of espresso quality: it should be of an even hazelnut color and be thick enough so that if sugar is added it should float on the surface for a few seconds before sinking. The crema then should close over the sugar after it drops to the bottom of a cup.
There are so many incredible activities happening this week at the Huron County Library and Museum!
You might be famished during your adventures… we got you 🙂
Our weekday hours are: 7am-430pm

When you can't choose between a sweet or savoury pastry, so you just get both. 😅
Pictured is our super popular breakfast sandwich made on a butter croissant, a chocolate croissant with a dusting of powdered sugar, and a hot beverage to sip on, of course. A café au lait with a big dash of cinnamon. Yes, please. 😋 #caitscafe
