Beaten By A Whisker - Review - Walthamstow - London - The Infatuation

"Beaten By A Whisker, a small-batch bakery, is a proper community spot—one with people chatting in the queue and an earthy colour palette that makes your morning worthy of photographing. Get the oversized cinnamon bun (our favourite flavour is hazelnut) which is so sticky you’ll need to pry it off your plate. The loaves of focaccia are also fantastic, with big, peek-a-boo air pockets and just the right amount of oil. But if you only get one thing at this Walthamstow spot, make it the dark chocolate and hazelnut cookie. It’s one of the best cookies in London, with pools of slightly-melting chocolate and a perfectly crispy outer layer that becomes soft and gooey. Much like us after one mouthful." - Sinéad Cranna
