The Flat Baker has found its new home in the heart of Ancoats
For many of us who baked our way through successive lockdowns, the eventual resumption of ‘normal’ service meant our sudden devotion to sourdough starters and banana bread was rather brief. But, for self-taught baker Matt and his partner Deborah, both originally from Brazil, it was only just the beginning.
“Matt always had this dream of opening this Brazilian-English restaurant and it had always been in the back of our minds,” explained Deborah. Then, when lockdown came, like a lot of people we had more time so we turned to baking and as we were doing it more, something just clicked. Starting with baked goods such as croissants, cronuts and tarts, the team then put their own creative spin on these creations, infusing them with a tropical twist. Whether it’s the passionfruit and lime meringue sweet tarts, banana and Nutella knots or boozy Brazilian brioche, The Flat Baker’s creations have cut through the crowd.
“Luckily, Manchester has welcomed us in such a warm way, it feels like a big hug. Everyone has been so helpful and many have recommended us to others,” Open on Saturdays only, pastry lovers will be able to satiate their sweet tooth with many of The Flat Baker’s staples, as well as some newer additions such as the Polenta cake with guava - a tropical fruit cultivated in many tropical regions - and Brazilian carrot cake, topped with creamy brigadeiro , which reminds them of many cherished childhood memories.
