Our Bakery

Old fashioned excellence

Before sunrise in Kin Kin, Richard and Kirsty—an award-winning baking duo—are already at work, crafting golden almond croissants and irresistible pastries. Their handmade cakes, breads, and treats, crafted from top-tier ingredients, fuel locals and passers by in need of sustenance.

FRESH DAILY

All you knead to know

Our breads are baked daily in Kin Kin using heritage grains and Richard's 6.5-year-old sourdough starter. The slow fermentation process results in naturally low-gluten sourdough—its bread as it used to be, and bread as it should be; healthy, easy to digest and flavourful.

Kirsty’s pastries are delectable and unusual. Life can be divided into two moments, before and after you’ve tried her guava cake. Whatever side of the gluten free fence you sit on, it’s a winner. 

All breads, cakes and pastries are available from 8am Thursday to Sunday or purchased for take away. Just get there early enough. Or it’ll be a bun fight. 

Want to order a take away cake for a special occasion or book an indulgent afternoon tea - just get in touch.
