Icing Hill
Fortitude Valley
This Valley venue offers up delightful pastries, gourmet desserts and custom cakes in a beautiful and airy venue. They look (almost) too good to eat. We’ll manage though.
La Macellaria
Multiple Locations
An authentic Italian gelateria and dessert bar, La Macellaria is truly a gelato experience. Each of their gelatos is made with ingredients from local growers wherever possible, but also imported ingredients from Italia.
Nodo Donuts
Multiple Locations
Nodo Donuts are baked and allergen-friendly: but don’t let this fool you. These are some seriously tasty donuts. With flavours like Pumpkin Maple and Rocky Rose they are sure to tantalise your taste buds.
Cheeky Waffles
Fortitude Valley
Cheeky Waffles well and truly live up to their name. The waffles are shaped like, to put it delicately, male and female genitalia.
Novelty factor aside, the team at Cheeky Waffles have made a soft, decadent waffle that tastes absolutely divine with plenty of amazing toppings to boot.
I Heart Brownies
Bowen Hills
These brownies are made with love, and you can really taste it. I Heart Brownies has a range of flavours on offer including the classic chocolate brownie, as well as more adventurous flavours like Turkish Delight, and Peanut Butter Chip.
Sonder Dessert
Sunnybank
Sonder Dessert is a Japanese patisserie and dessert bar. They pay homage to traditional flavours and confections, as well as experiment with new and exciting flavour combinations.
Le Bon Choix
Multiple Locations
Le Bon Choix’s mission is to deliver the trademark French-renaissance-style sweets to the people of Brisbane. They embrace sugar and butter, and their adoration of all things sweet is evident in their items.
Dough Ma
Upper Mt Gravatt
Dough Ma is all about doughnuts, and they do them exceptionally well.
This little hole in the wall is already gaining a cult following for their unique and delicious flavours, and seriously soft and fluffy doughnuts.
Agnes Bakery
Fortitude Valley
It’s not uncommon to see a line a block long down the road outside Agnes Bakery. Try their pastries and you’ll see why. Agnes Bakery is the sibling venue of the popular Agnes Restaurant, so excellence is to be expected.
Gelato Messina
Multiple Locations
Gelato Messina is synonymous with gelato in Australia. They have a rotating menu of 40 flavours, including limited-edition flavours that are released periodically. They also do amazing things with gelato cakes and desserts.
Lune Croissanterie
Lune Croissanterie is all about, you guessed it, croissants. After an insanely successful store in Melbourne, they expanded into Brisbane in 2021. These guys know their stuff when it comes to flaky, buttery pastries. They also do a range of other sweet and savoury items like tarts and quiches.
