Demasié, The Bakery That Will Steal Your Heart

Flip

A food showcase that steals the eyes of every passerby in the Calle de la Princesa – this display tempts and manages to lure most everyone inside, offering a fantastic world of rolls, cookies and truffles. For 11 years this bakery has enchanted our palates and has stolen our sweet-tooth-driven hearts: Demasié is a pastry shop you will never want to leave.

Demasié is a project started by brothers Mikel and Marc, who have a history of bakers and pastrymen, that dates back four generations (since 1897!) Demasié was born from the idea of creating a space full of American style cookies and cakes in the center of Barcelona. Since then, they have created thousands of sweet variations. Two years ago, they decided to be pioneers in the Cinnamon Roll business, and today they have the best rolls in the city.

With a creative and eager energy, the brothers fill the space with more than 40 recipes, ranging between sweet, salty, with vegan options. You can always get 10 to 15 different varieties, one richer than the other. Order something salty like a roll with pesto, mozzarella and tomato or bacon and cheddar – very hard to decide which is better. The texture of the dough is delicate and smooth, and each ingredient sits individually. Every day there is a new and different flavor, so take a risk and try something new.

In terms of sweets, there is quite a variety for a sweet tooth. Choose from the classic cinnamon roll, to flavors like nutella, oreo, pistachio, tiramisu, cheesecake, and red velvet … We strongly recommend you try the tiramisu, with the indisputable flavors of coffee, mascarpone and cocoa. This bakery is unquestionably delicious. Now, they even have donuts from Friday to Sunday with different flavors like red fruits or mango lassi, (a fusion with Indian cuisine.) The donuts are made from a very fluffy, light dough, and pair perfectly with the delicacy of mango and yogurt.

This space is full of lots of color and funny designs, made by the illustrator Jorge Palomar. You will always be joyfully greeted by one of the brothers of the bakery – Mikel in the kitchen and Marc serving the sweets for everyone. So much love is shared in Demasié – where you and your heart will leave lighter and sweetened.
