The Beechworth Bakery has a long and proud history of serving high-quality baked goods as well as
supporting the local community.
Originally established in Beechworth, the Healesville bakery is one of six that are located in Victorian towns.
Now a Healesville icon, the bakery combines old-fashioned service with modern facilities.
Manager Kyle Bray said customers were drawn to the personal touch employees provided.
“We offer great customer service and enthusiastic and friendly staff to cater for our customers’ needs,” she said.
Open seven days a week from 6am to 6pm, the bakery is in a convenient location on the Maroondah Highway in Healesville.
It caters for groups of all sizes and offers a huge car park, capable of holding anything from motorbikes to caravans.
Visitors to the bakery can enjoy views of the mountains from the relaxing outdoor setting.
The grassed area allows visitors to take in the park bridge and has easy access to the park.
Inside there are plenty of tables, a play area for kids and couches for the travel-weary.
“We sell various pies, our famous bee stings and vanilla slice,” Kylie said.
“We also have an established range of gluten-free products.
“We have something for all ages.
“For the kids, we have zoomers and short-bread biscuits.”
The bakery offers all-day breakfast, lunch, early dinner and vegetarian delights.
Beechworth Bakery employees proudly make the pies on offer.
Among the bakery’s many specialties is the bee sting – a sweet bun lightly spread with apricot jam, filed with the creamiest custard and topped with toffee almonds.
It’s a must-try for the many visitors to the region, who have flagged the bakery as a good stopping point as they make their way to Eildon or the alpine area, or as they tour wine regions.
