About Manna Dew Bakery

Manna Dew Bakery centers its Battersea bakery on a specific question: how to make a gluten-free croissant retain the structure and layers of French pastry. The London bakery describes a process of experimentation that began without a recipe capable of meeting that need. Dough, proofing, and baking are at the heart of an offering that places as much importance on technique as on the dietary restriction.

Production combines a blend of rice, potato, corn, tapioca, and chickpea flours and starches with French Lescure butter. The bakery’s story describes 84 hand-laminated layers in its croissants. Beyond a dietary label, that work aims for separated layers and a pastry texture: something to choose for the experience of eating it.

The butter croissant and pain au chocolat are two core offerings. The latter contains Belgian chocolate; the almond croissant adds homemade frangipane, flaked almonds, and a vanilla and agave finish. Danish pastries also come in boxes of five, while Build Your Box allows customers to assemble a selection. The catalog distinguishes sweet, savory, chocolate, fruit, and cheese flavors, alongside cakes and mixes.

Collections organized around particular ingredients remain distinct. Vegan options and products made without dairy, eggs, tree nuts, peanuts, or soy are available, but those characteristics do not automatically apply to the entire range. The butter croissant and other pastries contain dairy ingredients; each product’s recipe distinguishes it from alternatives. The gluten-free focus therefore sits alongside a wider selection of needs and preferences.

The pastries are prepared to receive a final warming in the oven before eating. Storage and reheating instructions accompany this sales format, intended to restore texture at home. Mainland Great Britain orders are organized by delivery date, with local pickup options. The U.S. store is a separate channel identified for frozen-product deliveries.

The advertised walk-in shop is at 171 Battersea High Street, London SW11 3JS; the business’s contact address is 169 Battersea High Street on the same street. These are distinct references within Manna Dew’s information, rather than two branches presented as a chain. Bakery pickup and online shopping provide access to the same range from the neighborhood or from home.

Wholesale service complements individual sales. For a shared table, a breakfast box, or an assortment of pastries, the offering retains a recognizable focus: gluten-free baking with distinct recipes and finishes. The combination of croissants, chocolate, almond, and Danish pastries provides more useful information for choosing than a general promise about products suitable for every diet.
