Sydney's Tella Ball Nutella Dessert Bar Has Opened Its First Queensland Store

The cafe features an explosion of Nutella — on doughnuts, in sliders and on a 'kebab'.

If you're a fan of that famous blend of chocolate and hazelnut, and you're prone to looking at food snaps on Instagram, then you've probably come across Tella Ball Dessert Bar over the last two years. The Nutella-slinging cafe has made quite the name for itself since it started making spherical cinnamon doughnuts filled with the good stuff, then placing them on top of milkshakes — then whipping up ridiculous creations like Nutella kebabs and Nutella lasagne. Now, they're finally bringing their Nutella-drenched wares to Queensland.

Setting up shop in Surfers Paradise, TBDB's first jaunt this far north serves up the full array of Nutella sweet treats. The state's Nutella lovers can now indulge in their favourite dessert spread in a 54-seat space at The 4217 on Beach Road, a block away from the tourist area's main Cavill Avenue strip.

As well as the aforementioned Nutella-laden extravaganzas, the menu includes doughnut fries, Nutella sliders, doughnut ice cream cones, Nutella-drizzled pancakes, red velvet Nutella waffles, hot chocolates filled with Nutella and Nutella cheesecake. Even TBDB's standard Tella balls come in an array of different flavours, from Gaytime to Oreo to Ferrero Rocher to lamington. If you're not that much of a Nutella fiend — or have an allergy — you'll find chocolate pasta (made from crepes), a variety of milkshakes, house-made gelato, Tim Tam pancakes, and ricotta and blueberry waffles among the non-nutty offerings.

It's the kind of place where the word Nutella might lose its meaning from overuse, but your tastebuds really won't care. And for Queenslanders that don't live on the Gold Coast, TBDB are calling the Surfers spot their first Queensland store — so here's hoping that means more, including in Brisbane, will follow.

Find Tella Balls Dessert Bar at The 4217, 10 Beach Road, Surfers Paradise. Head to their Facebook page for further information.
