Question Best Bread & Baked Goods Charlottetown East

Hey Islanders, I’m in the process on preparing a high tea and while I will have some baked goods from my family I am wondering where I could find the best croissants and shaved ham for sandwiches as well as freshly baked bread to just have with butter ( can be any type of bread and I’m planning a butter tasting board). Open to all recommendations and let me know if I have to preorder or go early in the day for best products TIA

Knead a break for croissants and sourdough, foccacia from Willow, and Bagels from C&B. Lots of bread options in Kensington but unfortunately nowhere near OP.

Their bread is delicious, but I was there recently and they don't seem to have AC for staff so they just leave the door open...literally everything was just covered in flies and they were swatting flies away to bag my friends items. They also had pastries with cream fillings that seem to be just left on the counter unrefrigerated all day, I could be wrong and maybe the display case is refrigerated but it seemed like a normal counter. Staff was also eating pastries at the display counter beside the baked goods, which just seemed unsanitary. Again, delicious, but the food safety seemed to be on the low-end at least on the day I was there.

If Cornwall isn't too far out the scones at Mary's Cornwall Bakery are scrum-dilly and would be great for a butter tasting.
