We’re bringing back a customer favourite to A Bread Affair Bakery on Granville Island. Some flavour combinations are simply timeless, and lemon poppy seed is one of them. After countless requests and enthusiastic feedback, our Lemon Cream & Poppy Seed Butter Scone is officially back, and we couldn’t be more excited to welcome it into the new year.
Each scone begins with a rich, buttery dough (because you know how much our bakery loves butter!) infused with fresh lemon, giving every bite a bright, citrusy lift. Poppy seeds are folded throughout for that classic lemon-poppy seed character, adding just the right amount of texture and visual charm. But the real surprise comes from the creamy pockets of cream cheese baked into the dough, creating a soft and creamy contrast that makes these scones especially irresistible.
To finish, each scone is drizzled with a glossy sweet lemon icing, tying all the flavors together beautifully. The result is a scone that’s buttery yet light, zesty yet balanced…indulgent without being over the top. Whether you’re enjoying one with your morning coffee from the Granville Island public market, bringing it home for weekend brunch, or grabbing one to go as you explore Granville Island, this scone is a bright and comforting way to start the year. But hurry! As with all our scone flavours, this one won’t be around forever — we switch things up once our ingredients run out.
Thank you for supporting our bakery! Here’s to fresh beginnings, cozy rituals, and a little lemony joy along the way. 🍋✨
