Sourdough from Fortrose to Bridge Street.

The bread and cakes around Inverness are made by hand, and they are worth seeking out. In the city, a bakehouse on Bridge Street bakes sourdough, pastries and cinnamon rolls in an open-plan bakery, with dinner some evenings. On the Black Isle, Fortrose High Street has a small bakery for croissants and cakes, and a café deli with a wood-fired oven and home baking. West of Inverness, a cake shop on the main street of Muir of Ord bakes by hand, with vegan and gluten-free choices. Go in the morning, when the bread is fresh.

For Jeni Iannetta of Bad Girl Bakery, the first stop for food in Inverness is the Victorian Market's food hall, and not just because her bakery is there.

Bad Girl Bakery is known for its big cakes and delicious bakes, and with everything made by hand, you need to be quick before they sell out. Besides the original café in Muir of Ord, it runs the anchor café in the food hall of the Victorian Market, a historic indoor market under a beautiful ironwork roof in the middle of Inverness. Jeni loves the variety around her, from vegan street food to local seafood, and steaks and pulled pork from a stallholder's own farm. Further afield, she sends people to the Black Isle. 'If you’re there, then why not go to Black Isle Dairy? I’m obsessed with their dark chocolate sorbet'.
