Desserted

Overview

Melbourne cake and pastry lovers are spoilt for choice when it comes to 2024's Melbourne Food & Wine Festival. For one, last year's hugely popular Baker's Dozen is back, showcasing some of Melbourne's best bakeries and patisseries in Federation Square across two days. Plus, there are a heap of other dessert-centric events to join, including Desserted at Stokehouse.

From 6.30pm on Monday, March 18, the teams from Stokehouse and Tokyo Lamington will serve a one-off five-course degustation that's all about desserts. Diners will head to the seaside restaurant just before sunset, nabbing a welcome drink to sip on while the sun goes down at St Kilda Beach. This restaurant has one of the best views in Melbourne, and going to this event is one great excuse to experience it for yourself.

Following the bevs, Stokehouse Group Pastry Chef Ash Smith (ex-Aria, Rockpool Bar & Grill, Spice Temple) and Eddie Stewart (ex-Black Star Pastry) of Tokyo Lamington will plate up and chat through each of the five dessert dishes they have created for the sweet night out.

The exact lineup of desserts is a surprise, but will feature innovative interpretations of classic cakes and pastries of the past. The menu will start with a somewhat savoury dessert and then get right into sweet decadent creations that will surely look as good as they taste.

Tickets are going for $148 per person and include the drink on arrival as well as the five-course feast. Those wanting to pair wines and other bevs with the meal can easily do so on the night.
