Golden Ticket Dessert Degustation

Overview

Get ready for all your wildest, sugar-filled fantasies to come true, when Melbourne's own Willy Wonka-style exhibition Sugar Republic hosts a roving dessert degustation. It's happening across three sessions, on Saturday, August 4.

Curated by MasterChef alumni Tamara Graffen, along with Om Nom Kitchen's Jo Ward and Lydia Schofield, the interactive feast will see diners getting down and dirty with a menu of indulgent sweet creations.

You'll find yourself chowing down on Cherry Ripe-flavoured clouds (a nod to the building's famous former occupant, MacRobertson), sipping ice cream spiders crafted with liquid nitrogen and creating your own signature flavour of fairy floss, among all other sorts of sugary fun.

Diners will also get free rein of the exhibition itself, which boasts a bunch of playful, interactive installations, including a bubblegum-inspired ball pit, a giant birthday cake and walls of fairy floss.
