New bake shop opens in uptown Leamington

LEAMINGTON — Christine’s Bake Shop opened Thursday, August 12 at 53 Talbot Street East in Leamington.

Owner Christine Dundas has been in the baking business for about seven years, but in 2018 made the decision to go into it full time.

She was the winner of the Municipality of Leamington’s recent ‘Reinvent The Space’ promotion and received a $15,000 grant towards renting her location.

After an extensive renovation, the space is ready for her Grand Opening on Thursday, August 19.

Featuring a large commercial kitchen, Christine’s offers cookies, scones, muffins and numerous other baked goodies.

“We call it comfort baking,” she said.

Christine’s Bake Shop features traditional baking, as well as some gluten-free, keto and vegan selections.

Dundas also carries products from other vendors that compliment her selection of baked goods.

Christine’s Bake Shop is currently open Thursday to Saturday 10-5 with plans to expand the hours in the near future.
