Sweet As Dessert Festival

If it's a sweet treat, it'll be on offer at this dedicated dessert festival.

Overview

Most food festivals offer a variety of dishes, ranging from snacks to mains to treats. Sweet As Dessert Festival will too — as long as you're fine with meringues, marshmallows and macarons as appetisers, cakes and doughnuts for a main, and ice cream, sorbet and gelato to wrap it all up.

That's just our suggested order. With all of the above on offer — plus everything from brownies and waffles to cheese and chocolate — there's no right or wrong way to work your way through the menu. All of the treats will be served up by a range of Brisbane's best dessert-makers, with The World Food Markets overseeing the event. And while this isn't the city's first sweet-filled festival, or even its first this year, no one is complaining.

With the festival running on Saturday, May 11 and Sunday, May 12 at the Cleveland Showgrounds in Redlands, that means dessert is on the menu for a late brekkie, brunch, morning tea and afternoon tea — and if you opt for to stick around for a few of those meals, there'll be no judgement. Also on offer: non-sugary street food, pop-up bars and live entertainment. And, you can nab your $5 ticket in advance.
