Sweet Excursions: A dozen delicious bakeries in the Portland suburbs

Pure Bliss, off a country road in Oregon City, is a real down-home bakery. It serves two sizes of scones and cinnamon roll variations that don’t skimp on sweetness out of a small shop that’s decorated with quilt squares. The sausage cheese scone was buttery and light with subtle flavors. The Hershey’s chocolate scone was a similar scone base -- the batter not too sweet which meant the chocolate and the frosting were allowed to be super sweet without making your teeth ache. The orange roll was the most surprising and tasty thing we ate though -- and orange roll with orange icing and orange filling that was very sweet, but cut with a nice citrus tartness, too.
Standout pastry: Orange roll, $4.25.
Details: 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. Tuesday-Friday; 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday; closed Sunday-Monday; 18946 S. Central Point Road, Oregon City; 503-828-7041; pureblissbakery.com
