With seven coffee shops across Edinburgh, you’re (thankfully) likely to find a Twelve Trianglesbakery in your neighbourhood. Alongside punchy, life-invigorating cups of Fortitude coffee, eachvenue offers up a selection of mouth-watering pastries, sandwiches, salads and ferments aswell as their signature slow, cold-fermented sourdough (alongside other cracking loaves ofbread). Their mantra is ‘simple things done well’; favourites include their seasonal-changing croissant loaf (think blackcurrant and dark chocolatethen soaked in custard) and lemon and cardamom morning buns.

Owned by former costume designer Rachel Morgan, Twelve Triangles leans more toward bread wonderland than coffee haven: while well-suited for a caffeine fix, it’s the front window, filled with freshly baked loaves and pastries, that makes this place so special. The space is small, so order your usual pick-me-up—brewed with locally sourced beans from Fortitude Coffee or Williams & Johnson—and a sweet to go. Try the pistachio cardamom knot or the caramel custard donut—or both.

Is your idea of heaven a bakery using only slow fermentation sourdough made from local flour?. That makes its own ricotta, preserves and custards for passionfruit and ricotta or coconut caramel custard doughnuts?. Or do you believe that the best thing to do to a croissant is fill it with peanut frangipane and banana?

Tucked away on an unassuming stretch just off Leith Walk, Twelve Triangles is an exceptional (and exceptionally tiny) bakery. Some of the city’s best…

It won’t be hard to stumble upon Twelve Triangles in Edinburgh as there are multiple outposts across the city, including Brunswick and Portobello, whipping up slow-fermented sourdough and pastries from scratch. Its entire ethos is centred around a cold/slow process that takes three to four days, and everything is made by hand - including the deliciously tart jams, creamy custards and ricotta. Head to the dog-friendly space decked out with low-hanging lighting and cute wooden tables to scoff grilled cheese toasties, croissants and fresh sandwiches filled with cured meats and pickles, alongside a delicate latte made with beans from Machina.

When Twelve Triangles opened its doors at 90 Brunswick Street in March 2015, they began with a small core range of sourdough breads, pastries and doughnuts, with a strong emphasis on slow ferment cold prove doughs, making everything possible from scratch. Over the last two years they have expanded their repertoire to a range of breads and pastries as well as adding in some pies and lunch bits. A young company, constantly learning but with a strong and loyal group of customers allowing them to continue their mission to provide the simple things done well to the people of Edinburgh.

You can’t accuse Twelve Triangles of cutting corners: all bread and pastry here is moulded by hand, only slow fermentation sourdoughs are used, and there’s no additives or improvers. If the science behind this goes in one ear, out the other, then just know everything’s of the highest standard. And if you’re after something a little bigger to line the stomach than just a ham & cheese croissant, the Dalry Road and Duke Street branches are just as much a cafe as they are a bakery, serving actual lunch menus with seasonal ingredients.

From dough to doughnuts: Twelve Triangles' story began back in 2015 with a spot of experimentation - slow ferment, cold-prove doughs. Now, this tiny bakery just of Leith Walk sells a range of breads – including a dark and devilish charcoal loaf, gourmet doughnuts and pastries. It’s also since expanded to a second branch in Portobello and the Twelve Triangles Kitchen Table, a café, gathering place and the venue for regular fermentation workshops.twelvetriangles.co.uk
