Zimt Patisserie Bakery Café
Zimt Patisserie Bakery Café is the lifetime dream of Michael and Sue Leidler, the concept of which has been developed and researched for many years. It is also the bold step of Michael to move on from his family business to establish his own reputation as a one of the fine pâtissiers of Melbourne. The product is their primary passion and they believe in its quality, value and desirability to the market. Zimt translates from German as ‘cinnamon’, the most aromatic of spices. |
