Common questions
What is the best cinnamon roll in Melbourne?+

Baker Bleu in Elsternwick is Melbourne's most critically acclaimed bakery, and its cinnamon roll is among the city's best: sourdough-based, properly laminated, and baked with locally milled flour. Sebby's Scrolls is the city's dedicated scroll specialist, open Thursday through Sunday.

What is a scroll in Australia?+

In Australia, cinnamon rolls are typically called scrolls: same format, same filling, different name. The quality spectrum is similar to anywhere else: from supermarket versions to the genuinely excellent handmade ones at places like Baker Bleu or Sebby's Scrolls.

What neighborhoods in Melbourne have the best cinnamon rolls?+

Elsternwick has Baker Bleu. Fitzroy and Collingwood have the highest density of craft bakeries generally. The CBD has options for convenience, but the best scrolls tend to be in the inner suburbs, a 10–20 minute tram ride from the city center.
