The Dutch Epicure bakery on 101A in Amherst, NH is great. After going back and forth to Europe every year now since 1996, I have to say that it's hard to find bakeries in the USA that aren't overly sweet and fatty. The Dutch Epicure bakery is one of the few that actually tastes like Authentic Dutch recipes. The tarts aren't too sweet, the breads aren't loaded with preservatives, and the bakery itself isn't packed with 100's of treats - they have a few high quality pasties because their goal to keep everything fresh. The bakery itself isn't anything you'd choose to hang out in, it's more of a "take out" style bakery, but it's clean and the staff are polite. So, if you want to try baked goods that actually don't make you feel sugar loaded and bloated after you've consumed them, try the Dutch Epicure.
