Pie Baking May Be Impossible In Waterloo Crises
Sugar shortages threaten Waterloo bakeries with cutting pastry output by over half. Local bakers report pie, cream rolls, fancy cakes, sugared doughnuts and cookies at risk as Colorado and Iowa beet sugar crops delay supply. Major shops use sugar cautiously or borrow from grocers. Altstadt and Langlas bought large stocks earlier, but others face near total shortage if relief delays. Pie, a staple, may survive longest, while other sweets vanish.
