COBS Bread has been a neighbourhood staple since opening its first Canadian bakery in 2003. This franchise relies on old-school techniques and bakes fresh batches of its Country Grain Loaf and treats from scratch every single morning. Though their crisp baguettes and hearty grains have long earned praise from customers, it is arguably the pastry case that shines the brightest — due in no small part to their signature Cinnamon Bun. Created with a rich, buttery dough and laced with fragrant, spiced sugar pockets, each spiralled bun is baked to golden-brown before receiving a thick, velvety smear of tangy cream cheese frosting on top. It strikes the ideal balance of pillowy warmth and rich, sweet comfort. — Michael Sutton CAA Members get a free treat when spending $15 or more at participating locations.
