Manchester was named one of the most culturally diverse cities in the world only a couple of years ago.

With a population of just 503,000, the city speaks an amazing 153 different languages, possibly many more. With this comes the most tantalisingly diverse culinary delights imaginable - see our sections on Rusholme or China Town for starters!

But possibly thanks to a certain show (Great British Bake-Off for anyone not paying attention), Manchester has enjoyed a 'rise' in those kneading, folding, icing and eating baked creations. Baking is booming - and in Manchester it is celebrated in a typically multi-cultural fashion.

According to the British Federation of Bakers, the increase in people buying Indian naan breads and Mexican wraps at their local supermarket has made this the biggest growth sector in the British market in the past few years.

So here’s the lowdown on some of the most delicious spots to sample both Manchester’s finest bakers and its culturally-diverse culinary delights in the city.
