Cravo e Canela started in December 2008 from a dream and an amazing desire to bring to all people the full flavours of South America.

The taste of spices, the smell of fresh bread being baked and lovely cakes being made from scratch; just the way our grandmothers used to do.

Cravo is the name given to Clove in Brazil and Canela is the Portuguese name given to Cinnamon both very important spices in any kitchen. We took the liberty to use and abuse their flavours and colours to bring to you the best thing we can offer...our great selection of cakes and savouries.

Our Flavours

A choice of cakes and pastries that are to die for! Always fresh ingredients prepared with care and quality plus a variety of flavours from mild and sweet to spice and exotic; the delicate taste of our delicious Strawberry Cakes and the full flavour of our amazing Chocolate Mousse Cakes.

Not just cakes

At Cravo e Canela you will also find a variety of Brazilian savouries, why not explore our traditional side and order some Chicken Croquette (Coxinhas) or some Brazilian Cheese Bread(Pao de Queijo)?
