This week, House Beautiful's Editor, Torri Mundell, brought in a box of Ole & Steen's iconic cinnamon social for the team to graze on while editorial planning. Braided sweet dough, cinnamon paste, vanilla custard and icing...needless to say, this week's high street round-up was rapidly born: an homage to the 'sweet treat'.
Whether you're picking up a flaky pastry to enjoy with your morning coffee or indulging in a dainty dessert after dinner, sweet treats are no longer just an afterthought: they're a lifestyle. In fact, treating yourself increasingly feels like a radical wellness ritual, encouraging us all to draw pleasure from self-care and take a designated moment in our day to tantalise our tastebuds.
Lately, this sugary sensation has made its way into home design, and it's easy to see the appeal. Inspired by everything from pastel-iced cupcakes to golden croissants fresh from the oven, sweet treat-inspired decor brings a playfulness and a ritualistic indulgence to the home. Think berry-themed trays, Danish pastry-themed art prints, and even candles that look like edible delicacies (but definitely wouldn't taste as good!).
Scroll on and plan your sweet escape...
Go on, treat yourself...
