Kayu Bakehouse opening soon in Riyadh

The Dubai-born dessert boutique specialises in French treats

Something sweet is coming to the Saudi capital: Kayu Bakehouse is opening in Riyadh soon.

The Dubai-based artisan bakehouse is set to open this year in the Saudi capital. Kayu specialises in French desserts made from natural ingredients.

Intrigued by the name? Kayu means a patient meticulous person who enjoys working in a detailed and systematic way. Fittingly, the artisan bakery is dedicated to creating unique sweets in a variety of flavours and textures.

On the Kayu Bakehouse Riyadh menu, we’re hoping to see the signature Animation Citron. The pastry has a Middle Eastern twist with the lemon cream and zesty lemon crumble formed into an airy (and Instagrammable) meringue mousse.

Salivating yet? More items that we hope to see on the menu include paris-brest, a classic French pastry filled with hazelnut and almond praline with hints of caramel, along with the equally classic layered mille-feuille filled with either vanilla pastry cream or custard.

Kayu Riyadh’s opening date has yet to be announced, so keep it here for more. It is an exciting time for the food scene in the Kingdom with a variety of top restaurants, cafés and bakeries popping up across the city. Is your stomach ready for it all?
