Christmas has come early for pastry fans - a new Wenzel's bakery has opened its doors this morning in Wycombe

The bakery has thrown open its doors for the first time this morning, December 16, next door to Lidl at the London Road Retail Park. 

You can head there now for fresh bread, cakes, buns, doughnuts, pastries, pasties, patties and baguettes. 

Wenzel's is in good company - there's already another one in the Eden Shopping Centre. 

Lidl opened its doors on the London Road in October 2020. The budget supermarket was given the go-ahead by the council for the site of the former Homebase back in 2019, and a coffee shop next door was part of the plans.

There are rumours a Starbucks might still open next door to Lidl in the other 'pod' unit on site. 

There was major excitement when the new Lidl finally opened its doors to customers in October 2020, with shoppers queueing round the block to get inside. 

The former Homebase was initially set to be a Costa Coffee drive thru, with councillors saying yes to the plans back in 2016, but a spokesman for the coffee chain said in 2017 that they would not be opening on the site after all.
