Only 2 cafes have it so far.
Fewer than 5 Adelaide cafes have it, or the first review we have is under 120 days old. It also covers anything on a small share of cafes that is holding steady.
The stages run Emerging, Rising, Peaking, Mainstream, Fading. A trend can skip a stage or move back.

Adelaide's figures come from Google reviews and cafe menus (366 Adelaide cafes with a review or menu in the last 90 days). We don't read Adelaide cafes' posts yet, so this is a small sample and a drink shows up here later than it would in posts.

2suburbs with cafes that have it
By Nov 2026 (so far)
Each bar is the Adelaide cafes with a customer review of it that month; Nov 2026 is not over yet, so its bar is so far.
1 suburb is known only from a menu, which we can't date, so it counts in the last month.
Data updated 13 Nov 2026.
Too early to quote: 2 cafes have had it so far. A quote will appear here once 5 cafes have.
Croissant dough baked in a muffin tin, rolled in sugar and often filled with a cream or curd. A typical cruffin, drawn from Adelaide cafes' menus and reviews, is built from the top down with custard (piped in from the top; some use jam or curd), cinnamon sugar (rolled in it while warm) and cruffin (laminated croissant dough, rolled up and baked in a muffin tin). Each cafe makes its own version, so this is a typical plate, not one cafe's recipe. In all our data to 13 Nov 2026, The Froth has seen it at 2 Adelaide cafes across 2 suburbs, in Google reviews and menus. The 1 in "Where to get one" are the cafe with it on its current menu.
It is on 1 Adelaide cafe menu right now, including Loaded Corner Cafe in Adelaide. The "Where to get one" list on this page has every one, with the price where the menu gives one, links to the menu or post, and directions. Menus change, so check with the cafe before you go.
The earliest Adelaide customer review about cruffin that The Froth has is from 21 Apr 2026. We only see what we collect, so that is when we first saw it, not when it started: it may have been sold earlier, here or elsewhere.
It is on a bigger share of Gold Coast cafes: 2.3% against Adelaide's 0.3%, over the last 90 days.
A cafe counts for cruffin from the first Google review we found that mentions it, and while it is on the cafe's current menu. Shares are of the cafes we see well: those with a current menu in the same 90 days, a chain counting once. A change compares the same cafes in the last 90 days with the 90 before, only among cafes we have followed through both, so newly added cafes never look like growth. The 90 days end on the latest day with new reviews or menus (13 Nov 2026), not today. Searches are monthly search demand in Adelaide with all of a trend's names added up.
