When those carb cravings hit, there’s nothing quite like a delicious treat to indulge in. Picture flaky, buttery croissants and mouthwatering fruit-filled pastries.
We sampled some of their bestsellers, including the delectable cinnamon buns and the shareable Apple Licious Twist. Curious about which treats to order on your next visit? Several members of our team conducted a taste test, and here are their reviews, along with the top pick.
Berry & White Chocolate Scone
The scone has a delightful explosion of berry flavour, perfectly complemented by the indulgent sweetness of white chocolate. Its tender texture melts in your mouth, making it the ideal companion for your favourite cup of tea or coffee.
Lemon Blueberry Scone
Calling all citrus lovers, the Lemon Blueberry Scone is worth every bite. The scone has a delightful blend of zesty lemon citrus and sweet blueberries, enhanced with white chocolate chips and topped with a thin layer of lemon icing. The tangy treat is reminiscent of a classic lemon pound cake.
Triple Chocolate Scone
Chocoholics, brace yourselves! The Triple Chocolate Scone is like sipping luxury hot chocolate in pastry form. The indulgent cocoa flavours, complimented by creamy milk and white chocolate chips, will have you reaching for seconds.
Cinnamon Bun
One of COBBS Bread’s most popular menu items, the Cinnamon Bun, lives up to the hype. Each bun is pure cinnamon bliss, with layers of buttery dough, cinnamon, and brown sugar, creating a gooey bite. It’s everything you could hope for in a cinnamon bun.
Wild Blueberry & Custard Danish
From the very first bite, you’ll find yourself exclaiming, “wow!“. Brimming with blueberry and custard filling, it is a delightful balance of tangy sweetness from the blueberries and rich creaminess from the custard. The pastry itself features a golden, flaky exterior that contrasts beautifully with the soft, doughy interior, offering a satisfying blend of textures.
Raspberry & Custard Danish
The Raspberry & Custard Danish has tangy raspberries that perfectly complement the creamy custard, providing an explosion of flavour. Like the blueberry variant, it boasts a flakey crust and soft inside melts in your mouth.
Chocolate Croissant
Satisfying your chocolate cravings with a Chocolate Croissant. Each bite into the flaky and buttery pastry unveils a gooey, chocolate-filled center, while the drizzle of chocolate on top enhances the experience. It’s the perfect wake-up call for early-morning sweet tooths.
Apple Licious Twist
The Apple Licious Twist is a fantastic choice if you’re seeking a crowd-pleaser to share with friends. This unique take on classic apple pie resembles the familiar form and texture of a cinnamon bun, designed to be cut into slices for easy sharing.
Each bite offers a delightful mouthful of juicy, tender apple chunks swirled in sticky caramel sauce with warm cinnamon undertones. It’s the perfect medley of sweet, spicy, and fresh flavors, best described as a handheld mini apple pie enveloped by soft, pillowy dough.
Our favourite: Cinnamon Scone
If you’re a true lover of all things cinnamon, the Cinnamon Scone is a must-try. Our personal favorite embodies cozy comfort, capturing the essence of a crisp fall or chilly winter morning in every bite. It is dotted with cinnamon flakes, and each mouthful delivers a perfect blend of sweet cinnamon and buttery goodness, all topped with a light sprinkle of cinnamon sugar.
