In addition to offering an extensive range of traditional American baked products, the bakery is continually innovating to come up with new cupcake flavors.  The Hummingbird Bakery provides a unique experience to visitors and ensures there is always something new, fresh and exciting to try. Visitors to the bakery have the opportunity to directly see how their favorite desserts prepared and they can taste them as well.

“This bakery is a modern concept in baking American desserts, and its products are popular among many Saudis and residents who have experienced these kinds of desserts while traveling abroad,” said Stewart Black, CEO of Gourmet Gulf said.

He added, “The Saudi society’s openness to the world's cultures has created an attractive environment for genuine investment in the food industry. This has led us to create attractive ideas and introduce a new culture that focuses on the changing patterns of markets to meet consumers' needs and aspirations and provide a unique opportunity to experience the best international desserts.”

Erol Erguvenc, General Manager of Gourmet Gulf KSA said, “We are very happy with the opening of the first branch of The Hummingbird Bakery in Saudi Arabia. Our Rubeen Plaza branch will serve fresh and delicious American desserts and visitors will not only love the tastes of authentic American baking but will also have an enjoyable experience watching our bakers prepare these desserts before them.”

It is worth mentioning that Gourmet Gulf holds the exclusive franchises rights of a prominent set of restaurants in KSA, including California Pizza Kitchen, YO! Sushi and Panda Express -  the largest and fastest-growing Asian restaurant chain in the world. Other Gourmet Gulf restaurants opening in Saudi Arabia include Texas De Brazil and Azkadenya.
