In late February, the Baking Association of Australia hosted the 2022 instalment of the Victorian Baking Show – in Bendigo.
Winners were crowned in numerous categories dedicated to all manner of breads, pastries and sweets, but the winner of the sausage roll category was a familiar one.
Country Cob Bakery – which has locations in Kyneton, Boronia and Springvale – was said to be the maker of Victoria’s supreme snag roll. And it also won in the gourmet beef pie category.

SIGN UPIt's no stranger to a baking-comp win. It took out the top spot at the Baking Association of Australia’s annual national pie and pastie competition three years in a row. It won for its flaky pepper-beef pie in 2020, for its caramelised-pork and pepper pie in 2019 and its seafood satay pie in 2018.
The trifecta was all about savoury, but it’s worth turning your attention to the sweets display, too. The menu rotates, so there’ll be a few delicious wild cards each time you visit, but mainstays include vanilla slice, custard tarts, eclairs and doughnuts.
Country Cob Bakery delivers to all Melbourne metro suburbs and some regional areas. Order online.
