The Flavour Menu

Every cake is made from scratch with high-quality ingredients, designed to be as memorable as your celebration. I choose to finish all my cakes in Swiss Meringue Buttercream because it offers a sophisticated, melt-in-your-mouth texture that isn't cloyingly sweet. It’s light, airy, and creates that flawless, professional finish your celebration deserves.

The Foundations

  • Rich Chocolate Cake | A deep, moist cocoa sponge for the true chocolate lover.

  • Sweet Vanilla Cake| A classic, buttery bean sponge that pairs perfectly with any filling.

  • Red Velvet | A light cocoa infusion with that signature crimson hue and velvet crumb.

  • The Signature Carrot Cake| A moist, spiced classic packed with walnuts and pineapple (trust me it’s delicious, perfect with the classic cream cheese filling).

  • Classic Banana Cake| A nostalgic, sweet, and comforting favourite-just like home-baked.

The Fillings

Customise your layers with our decadent house-made ganache and fruit preserves. Premium filling options are tiered based on cake size to ensure the perfect ratio in every slice. | From $10

  • White Chocolate Ganache | Smooth, creamy, and elegantly sweet.

  • Dark Chocolate Ganache | Rich, velvety, and deeply indulgent.

  • Zesty Lemon Curd | Bright, sharp, and refreshing.

  • Tropical Passionfruit Curd | Bold, tart, and full of sunshine.

  • Summer Berry Curd | A smooth blend of sun-ripened berries.

  • Strawberry Compote | Sweet, chunky, and bursting with real fruit.

  • Raspberry Compote | Perfectly tart and vibrant to balance out a sweet sponge.

Baker’s Recommendation

A few of our favourite pairings include The Rich Chocolate with Raspberry Compote or The Sweet Vanilla with Tropical Passionfruit Curd.

Our Swiss Meringue Buttercream is best enjoyed at room temperature. For the perfect silkiness, please take your cake out of the fridge 1–2 hours before serving!
