Sable Shortbread

Sable Shortbread We are a boutique family bakery and we love to bake shortbread and other delectable treats. Like Grandma, but better. Let us bake for you. YUM!

We use organic and natural ingredients and make everything from scratch. Sable Shortbread makes gourmet shortbread cookies from scratch, by hand, in awesome flavours. Our flavour selection changes with the seasons. We use the finest natural, local and organic ingredients and our shortbread is free from all artificial additives.

It’s been a hot minute since I showed you some shortbread. So here’s a couple of favourites.

Just a reminder that we are closed this week.

The BER months are here — and you know what that means. Cooler nights, sweater weather, pumpkin pie, and Christmas. 🎄

We’re taking our annual pre-Christmas rush break this week, before the busy season begins.

The shop will be closed, but you can still place orders through our page while we’re away, and we’ll fill them when we’re back.

Then we’re straight back into it with Garlicfest on September 12 — always one of our favourite days of the year.

A few days off. Then garlic. Then Thanksgiving. Then Christmas.

Welcome to the BER months.

Just before August leaves us entirely…

Remember Julia’s birthday post? We promised you the chocolate cakes through the years.

Julia requests chocolate cake pretty much every year.

And we take that request very seriously.

From gâteau to galore. 🍫

Chocolate through the years.

You asked about the cherries. 🍒

When we decided to add fruitcake to our menu, we knew the cherries had to match our other ingredients.

Commercial glacé cherries simply do not.

They’re bleached. They’re treated with sulphites. They’re coloured with artificial colours. They’re candied in a sugar solution that can include high-fructose corn syrup and other ingredients we don’t want in our fruitcake.

So we decided that if we were going to make fruitcake, the cherries would have to be made by us.

We start with fresh local cherries and organic cane sugar, and use the centuries-old process of gradually candying the fruit over time.

It takes longer, but it means the cherries that go into your fruitcake meet the same standards as everything else we put into it.

Swipe to see how commercial glacé cherries are made.

And yes, if you’d like, we’ll show you how ours are made too.

Comment CHERRIES and we’ll show you how we make our glacé cherries. 🍒

These are the cherries that are going into your Christmas Fruitcake.

We make our own glacé cherries starting with fresh local cherries.

Nothing artificial here. And no green cherries — ever.

Want to know why we don’t use commercially made glacé cherries?

Comment CHERRIES and we’ll do a post about how they’re made.

Fruitcake of the highest quality.

No artificial colours.
No corn syrup.
No soy.

Organic ingredients. Fruit candied by us. Made the traditional way.

With this much work going into every cake, we can only make so many.

It’s time to order.
