Introducing Mike Ying, the heart and soul behind Cinnabuns, Melbourne’s go-to destination for French pastry perfection. Mike’s patisserie prowess was honed in the esteemed halls of Ecole de boulangerie de Paris, where he excelled in his BEP patisserie before advancing with a Mention Complémentaire, outstripping the exacting standards of the CAP Boulanger. Upon leaving the cobblestone streets of Paris, Mike planted his roots in Melbourne, where he now serves up the city’s favorite Cinnamon scrolls—a testament to his refined European techniques blended with local love.

His bakery, Cinnabuns, isn’t just a business, it’s a canvas where Mike’s dreams take shape in dough and sugar. He lives for the moments of pure delight when customers find bliss in every flaky layer. His advice for anyone with culinary aspirations is a recipe in itself: “Chase your dreams, no matter how demanding the journey. Persistence is the key ingredient to success.”
