What's a nice bakery near the city?

My wife loves the jam drops purchased in Mount Macedon Trading Post... except, it's in Mount Macedon. It's yummy and not too sweet.

Looking to get something of similar quality near the city.

Try Kooka brand bikkies from Colesworth. Old fashioned bikkies and not overly sweet. They do jam drops too in raspberry AND lemon.

Those lemon ones are the best thing to ever grace my taste buds. I can't buy them anymore because I don't stop until there is none left.

Thanks Thornburywitch I've bought one just now. Will let you know of her review tonight (in about 7 hours)
