I'm not sure if Ainsleys was a national chain of bread/cake shops but they're everywhere in Yorkshire. They went into administration last autumn and I gather they've now been taken over by Coopland. Who are Coopland - I've never heard of them and more importantly... what are their bread and cakes like (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) This is just academic research, you understand, not because I like to indulge, no no, not even occasionally (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

Cooplands do great russian slabs, you must try those (not that I would know but they come highly recommended!!!) Cooplands are almost on a par with Ainsleys, not quite, but much better than Greggs for sure. I've never heard of Cooplands or Ainsleys, but this thread DOES remind me of a school trip to Edinburgh three years ago...myself and a friend spent an hour tramping round Prince's Street looking for a Greggs (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) |
