Sausage Roll Scorecard updates have fallen into a state of disrepair of late and Greg J, I know you miss them. I have seven updates to catch up on now, so this update will be low on storytelling and high on brevity.
And, for the record, as of yesterday’s Friday Weigh-in I’m somehow still under the weight that I left home at. Go figure …
Wild Poppy Cafe (Merredin)
- Different pastry — quite nice.
- Different filling including carrots — quite tasty.
- Nice and hot.
- Nicole really liked it — so extra 0.2 points.
- Rating — 8.5 out of 10.

Forrest French Hot Bread (Collie)
- Vietnamese staff — so I felt very positive.
- Small in size.
- Not that hot.
- Tasted OK but nothing special.
- Rating — 7.9 out of 10.

Best in the West Bakery (Bunbury)
- We were getting groceries on our way to Myalup when Nicole spotted the bakery and we both said, “Why not!”
- Nice presentation and size.
- Good temperature.
- Filling quite dense but still tasty.
- Rating — 8.4 out of 10.


Wave Rock Cafe
- Very different appearance.
- Homemade — very nice pastry.

- Very impressive.
- Rating — 8.9 out of 10 (going Top 4!)


Ceduna Bakery (Ceduna)

- Good temperature.
- OK taste.

Elliott’s Bakery & Cafe (Streaky Bay)
- Nice town and nice bakery.

- Split it with Nicole — so as not to spoil lunch later that day.
- A different appearance, but good taste.
- Rating — 8.3 out of 10.

Elliston Bakery (Elliston)
- Looks good — and long!
- A bit too hot.
- Nice crunchy pastry.
