Salted Caramel Brownies, and How to Enjoy Them
There are brownies, and then there are salted caramel brownies. The kind that stop you mid-bite. The kind you think about on the way home. At Krumb Bakery on the Ormeau Road, our salted caramel brownie is one of those bakes that earns its place in the cabinet every single day.
What Makes a Great Salted Caramel Brownie?
It comes down to the contrast. You need a brownie that is deeply chocolatey, fudgy in the middle with just enough set to hold its shape. Then you need a caramel that is genuinely salted. Not a hint of salt. Proper salted, so it cuts through the richness and keeps you going back for more.
We make ours from scratch in small batches every morning. The caramel is folded in and rippled through the batter before baking, so every piece gets those glossy pockets of sweetness. Finished with a pinch of flaked salt on top. Golden on the outside, fudgy and rich in the middle. Every last krumb earns its place.
Our Salted Caramel Brownie: Baked Fresh Daily
Everything at Krumb is handmade from scratch. That means no shortcuts, no pre-mixes, nothing from a packet. When we say baked fresh, we mean it. The brownies come out of the oven each morning so by the time you walk through the door the kitchen already smells incredible.
We are proud to work with brilliant local and independent suppliers. The quality of the ingredients shows in the finished bake. That is part of the craft we care about at Krumb, and it is why our sweet treats keep bringing people back.
How to Enjoy Them Properly
Honestly? However you like. But here are a few ways we love them:
- On their own with a coffee. The classic. Our friends at Lucid Coffee Roasters supply our beans and the pairing with a rich brownie is hard to beat.
- Slightly warm. If you are lucky enough to be in when they have just come out, a warm salted caramel brownie is a little bakery magic.
- As a gift. Box up a few for someone you love. We also offer gift cards if you want to treat someone to their own Krumb run.
- After lunch. We are open Wednesday to Sunday, 9am to 4pm. A post-lunch brownie with a cup of Good and Proper tea is a very good idea.
Part of Something Bigger
The salted caramel brownie sits alongside a full cabinet of handmade bakes at Krumb. Our Cutie Pies, lemon meringue tart, strawberry tart, financiers and scones all change with the seasons and whatever we are loving that week. There is always something worth trying.
Krumb was born from a passion for proper craft baking and for this community on the Ormeau Road. Founder Sadhbh Baker spent 15 years working in some of Ireland's best bakeries before opening the doors here in 2024. Every bake carries that experience.
