About

Babyfaced Baker is a small Edinburgh takeaway bakery known for a changing counter of vegan cinnamon buns, croissants, cruffins and stuffed cookies, alongside savoury bakes such as focaccia sandwiches and veggie haggis rolls. Reviews praise the clearly marked vegan choices and friendly counter service; seating isn’t available, and popular pastries can sell out, so arriving early helps if you have a particular bake in mind.
