​The best matcha brownies in London 

The Story: Saint Sugar of London are big believers of using the finest ingredient: time. They’re on a mission to fight back against the blandness of chains and supermarkets by creating cakes that are homemade and made with genuine love and care. Saints Sugar of London was founded in 2009 and specialise in French patisseries and artisan bread, while bringing some of the finest brioche to East London.

The Lowdown: This is a vegan’s paradise  – who said vegans can’t have their cake and eat it too. We’re talking about raw treats including the mighty raw flat white bar made from coffee, cashews, vanilla, pecans and maple syrup or try the equally dreamy raw coffee brownie. They also have a range of cakes that are both gluten and dairy-free, don’t you know. And if you’re after a good slice of cake with a cuppa, you can’t go wrong with their apple and frangipane strudel. Absolute bliss.

Where: Friday: Greenwich Market, Saturday: Roman Road Market and Sunday: Brick Lane Market

​What: Chocolate Financier

How Much: £1.00

Why: Another small but mighty bake, this financier is unashamedly chocolatey. Buy two – they’re tiny and cheap. Saint Sugar pride themselves on using real butter and Belgian chocolate, and draw inspiration from traditional French baking and patisserie. Take a bite and imagine you’re walking down the Champs-Elysees, rather than Roman Road.

Where: Saint Sugar of London, Greenwich Market/Roman Road Market/Brick Lane Market

​Vegan day out in East London 

With our bellies full, we stopped shortly for dessert at Brick Lane Market. We had a raw brownie (you can see that the brownie tray was empty) which was very gooey gooey from dates but it still tasted a lot like a proper brownie and the “Sugar Mama” which was a coconut, superfood craziness that was sweet and satisfying.
