It's all about the food

As you know, we LOVE to say thank you to the stgrammers, the social networkers, the spotters, the shoppers...well basically everyone really.

But did you know that you can "spot" and share your food discoveries?  

Well, after a bit of digging we found some and by our standards they are pretty darned good photos.  So why not share some of yours and you never know...they just might become famous in the land of the blog!








be mindful though: these are not our photos so respect to those who took them yes?

Pastry Ninja

How did Pastry Ninja come in to being

Pastry Ninja came about in 2008. I had just moved into a property a few doors down from Marrickville Market in Addison Road.  This was the beginning.

Once I saw the market I wanted to become part of it!

The name was thought out on a rainy day, sitting at home mid July 2008.

I had a few names on paper and someone just commented about me working like a Ninja and that was that...Pastry Ninja was born.




You have "just the right size" in the tartlettes where for it would be a "get your own. THIS is mine!".  Was this a deliberate choice or was it more of a learning from the customer type evolution

Yes the tart size are just the right size.



We deliberately chose the  tart size and then found the case size to match. But yes, we were thinking it was the perfect size for one (person).


What would be your best seller at market

The best seller is definitely the Lemon Meringue Pie



Now firm faves amongst the Marrickville Market shoppers, how much of a role does market'eering play in the world of the Pastry Ninja

Market life is our life.  We participate in quite a few markets around Sydney every week.  So right now it is 100% of Pastry Ninja's life.....well maybe 99%




How would you sum up life at Marrickville Market in 5 words

Eclectic, humming, Jim (manager), alternative, fulfilling


**********

Having personally tasted just about every item the Ninja's have on offer we can attest to their yumminess and more importantly suggest you get yourselves to Marrickville Market to sample some yourselves.   They are seriously easy to find....just look for the AMAZING display and then dive head first in to the land of treats just for one

It would be a crime if we didn't include at least one more photo of what we feel is the all time up there 100% favourite number one photo of probably the singularly most pleasurable mouth explosion treat (in case you hadn't already guessed we kinda sorta LOVE this product): it melts in the mouth, it must be eaten immediately to avoid having to share, then one must simply return for more to take home!
