What people say
“We take forty loaves and a tray of pastries six mornings a week. In three years the van has never once turned up late.”
Marcus Vale, Halloway Coffee
“I ordered the wedding cake on a Tuesday and tasted three fillings on the Thursday. It was exactly the cake we described.”
Priya Chandran
Everything sold at Crumb & Co is baked in the room behind the counter, on the morning you buy it.
Since 2011
Crumb & Co bakes bread that keeps for three days, pastries that never see a freezer, and cakes made to the size of the table they are going on.
