Boston Bakery | How can there be such a wonderful bakery

🍞 Iggy’s Bread: Cambridge’s Hidden Bakery Gem—Sourdough Perfection at a Steal On a sunny autumn afternoon, my amazing friend whisked me to Nouve (sadly sold out and closed early) and then Iggy’s—and wow, what a find. We arrived 30 minutes before closing: pastries were sparse, but the bread selection? Abundant and impressive. Sourdough, focaccia, ciabatta, baguettes, flavored bagels—all fresh, all tempting. 🥖 Standout Bakes 30th Special Sourdough: 🎉 Bought 1/8 of this massive loaf for just $3.75 (comparable to Trader Joe’s prices, but way better). The crust looks thick but shatters crisply (thanks to high-heat, fast baking, my bread-savvy friend explained). Inside? Moist, chewy, with that perfect sourdough tang. The only tiny flaw: the crust’s char is slightly bitter for my taste, but fresh out of the oven, the crumb is divine. Sourdough Buns ($0.6 each): 🌟 Flawless. Small (60g each), with a lighter crust (less char) and a bouncy, tender interior. Toast them, and you get crispy edges + soft, chewy centers. At 60 cents a pop, they’re the ideal single-serve size—breakfast, snack, or sandwich base. Unbeatable value. 🧀 The “Wow” Factor Focaccia: 🤯 Unlike any I’ve seen—thick, shaped like a sourdough loaf, with a fluffy crumb and fragrant herbs. Can’t wait to try it next time. Prices: Ridiculously reasonable for the quality. Pastries (like plain croissants at $4) are similarly well-priced for Boston. ✨ The Verdict Iggy’s has zero flaws—except maybe the distance (in Cambridge, a bit of a trek). Great variety, top-tier quality, and prices that won’t break the bank. Already planning a return to try pastries and restock on sourdough. 📍 Iggy’s Bread 130 Fawcett St, Cambridge, MA 02138 #BostonBakery #SourdoughHeaven #BreadLovers
