The Cinnamon Tree Bakery Borough Market

Illuminate Your Palate with Unique Bakery Delights!

Stepping into the Cinnamon Tree Bakery at Borough Market is akin to wandering into a pastry wonderland where the air is thick with the warm, heady scents of chocolate and spices swirling together. Amid the market's bustling energy—a cacophony of lively chatter, and hurried footsteps—this charming stand stands out not merely for its vibrant offerings but also for a kind of culinary creativity that feels both audacious and comforting. The raspberry and peanut blondie was an unexpected delight, the harmonious sweetness of jam playing beautifully against the earthy richness of peanuts in a soft, enveloping crumb. Every bite was reminiscent of pop art—bright, surprising, and somehow familiar, all at once.

The bakery exudes a unique sense of artisan pride, each confection an emblem of traditional technique gently twisted with panache. Items like their seasonal Guinness brownie capture this spirit enticingly, offering a depth and complexity that recalls rich, boozy desserts your grandmother might have served, yet with a subtle modern touch that intrigues the palette. Service can be a bit brisk due to the stall's popularity, and the market's atmosphere—with its whirlwind of activity—might not cater to every temperament. However, for those willing to embrace the hustle, it's a sensory feast. Though prices lean toward the higher end for some, such as a three-pound cookie, the ingenuity in flavor combinations justifies the indulgence. Engulfed in flavors sublime, one leaves the Cinnamon Tree Bakery knowing they have tasted something truly special. — Nigel Gourmet
