A NUMBER of Scottish bakeries have been named on a list of the best in the UK.
The Times’ list of the 49 best bakeries to visit across the UK has been compiled by a number of chefs and bakers.
Roberta Hall-McCarron, who is the chef and co-owner of the Little Chartroom in Edinburgh, was selected to pick the best bakeries in Scotland.

Here’s all those that made the list.
Bostock Bakery, North Berwick
The bakery is known for its bread and sausage rolls and was described as “what is needed to kick-start the day”.
Hobz, Edinburgh
A relatively new bakery known on the Leith Walk garnered praise for its grilled cheese sandwiches and cookies.
Twelve Triangles, Edinburgh,
Hall-McCarron said this bakery was where she learned how to make bread and that her favourite items were the caramel brownies, almond croissants and challah bread.
Lannan, Edinburgh
This bakery, located in Stockbridge, is relatively new to the city and its pastries have been described as “brilliant”.
The Pastry Section, Edinburgh
Described as more of a cake shop than a bakery, Hall-McCarron said the only drawback to this place was that it was “lethal to have it across the road from our restaurant”.
Aran bakery, Dunkeld
Located in Highland Perthshire, the bakery was described as having an “incredibly savoury offering” with the wild garlic and asparagus goat’s cheese Danish being singled out for praise.

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
