Baker's Dozen
Melbourne's most-loved bakers and pastry icons are coming together for a huge pop-up bake shop at Fed Square.
Overview
Imagine a two-day bake sale stocked with a heaving array of treats from some of the city's best-loved bakers, tart masters and pastry icons. Well, that's exactly what's in store for you when the second Baker's Dozen takes over Fed Square as part of 2024's Melbourne Food & Wine Festival.
From Saturday, March 23–Sunday, March 24, you're invited to sink your sweet tooth into a one-stop pop-up shop showcasing mouthwatering wares from a lineup of legends. Expect everything from buns and babka to croissants and canelés — with plenty of brand-new exclusive creations in the mix, too.
Among the culinary artists showing off their goods from 11am each day, you'll find Falco, Baker Bleu, Kudo, Monforte, Tarts Anon, The Flour and Black Star Pastry, to name a few. Some of Melbourne's best bakeries and cake shops are in this incredible lineup for the Melbourne Food & Wine Festival. And it's the only time you can hit them all up in one spot — no need to spend the entire weekend tracing all over the city to get your favourite sweet treats.
During the same two days, the festival will also be running a pop-up diner, celebrity sausage-making workshops and a pizza party at Fed Square. Best not fill up on brekkie before heading to this huge pop-up food hub.
