The Little Island Bake Shop

RECIPES FROM A GREAT DESTINATION: Jana's Bake Shop is the leading bakery on Salt Spring Island, an idyllic retreat in the Salish Sea between Vancouver and Victoria, BC, very popular with Americans, including the Hollywood set. In addition to many fine farms there are plenty of Hamptons-like summer homes for the rich and famous, side-by-side with homesteads from the sixties and seventies counter-culture. Jana makes great use of the local ingredients from Salt Spring's gentle micro-climate
SWEET ENOUGH: But not TOO sweet. Jana believes that you don't need to overdue it with the sugar and her recipes try to keep a good balance between sweet and tart. She is especially known for her wonderful pies (as Meg Tilly attests to on the cover).
>Jana was trained at the renowned George Brown College in Toronto, Canada's premier culinary institute and one of the main sources of its greatest chefs.
