Unique bakery has opened up in Worthing
A unique bakery, offering ‘everchanging’ continental flavours, has opened in Worthing.
Madrid to Mumbai Artisan Bakery, owned by Javier Navasques, began serving customers on Saturday, April 1 in Heene Road, at the edge of the West End.
Hove resident Javier, who was born in Madrid, announced the news on Facebook last month that he would be opening his newest bakery in Worthing – with an ‘ever-changing variety’ of fresh bread and artisan bakes, sweet and savoury options.
He said that Madrid to Mumbai would be ‘drawing an imaginary bridge’ between this country and South America and their ‘love of the Spanish sweet bread ring that ‘we Spaniards like to have over Christmas’.
Javier said ‘business has been great’ and ‘very well received’ so far in Worthing.
“People are craving something like this,” he said.
"There are not many bakeries around.
"Madrid to Mumbai is a way of expressing a food journey, with different style of cooking.
"I have very traditional Spanish sweet bread and Italian cakes.
“I don’t want to be bored and do the exact same thing, day in day out.
"Food should be entertaining and fun.
"This is my heritage. It is just myself that runs it for now and I want to keep prices reasonable.”
The food at Madrid to Mumbai is made from scratch and served fresh on the day.
The Spanish sweet bread ring is only available for a limited time.
Javier said: “This one from Madrid to Mumbai is made with Marriage’s Flour organic flour, free range eggs, cinnamon infused whole milk, orange and lemon zest and juice, dark rum, orange blossom water, cane sugar and butter, topped with almonds, the sweet ones, and with blue poppy seeds, the savoury ones.
“Fillings available for the sweet ones are Chantilly cream, Clementine and lemon marmalade from the queen of marmalades, Perfectly Preserved, or whipped dark chocolate cream.”
