Bewley's sticky bun · Dublin
A yeasted, syrupy enriched bun coated in a sticky lemon and sultana glaze, the Bewley's Cafe Grafton Street signature pastry since 1927. Best with a Bewley's coffee.
Ernest Bewley introduced the sticky bun to the Bewley's Oriental Cafe menu at Grafton Street in 1927; the recipe came from the Bewley family bakery and was based on an English Chelsea bun with the Irish addition of a lemon syrup glaze and sultanas. The bun became the city's signature pastry across the twentieth century, a Sunday-morning Grafton Street ritual. Bewley's still bakes the same recipe in its restored Grafton Street cafe.
