milco sweets

For anyone who has found gluten-free baking dry, the muffins at milco sweets may come as a pleasant surprise. Diners praise their moist texture and restrained sweetness, which pairs well with coffee; some also say they particularly enjoy the savoury muffins. The menu includes gluten-free and vegan options, with batter made using house-made nut milk described as moist and fluffy. Mini muffins are available too, making it easy to try a few flavours.

Scones offer a different kind of contrast, with crisp edges and a moist centre. The menu describes them as made with almost no sugar, letting the ingredients’ natural sweetness and richness come through. For a more substantial crunch, there are also oatmeal cookies made without sugar or nuts.

To drink, choose drip coffee blended to go with the baked goods or organic tea. You can enjoy them with your order in the shop, or opt for takeaway or collection outside the shop. The shop is open on Fridays and Saturdays from 12 to 17, so check the opening days before setting out.
