Muffin Break

Muffin Break is an Australian specialty bakery and café franchise that provides a variety of freshly baked goods and coffee services. Founded in 1990, the brand serves a broad consumer demographic with a product range centered on muffins, which are baked daily on-site. The menu also includes a variety of breakfast and lunch options such as croissants, baguettes, granola pots, and savory pastries, alongside a selection of sweet treats, cakes, and cookies.
