Dolce & Co – Gilbert St

When it comes to fancy state of the art desserts, you really can’t look past Dolce & Co. With dessert moulds costing up to $40K to make and patented dessert designs, the desserts are like components and are individually put together. The sweets at Dolce & Co are beautifully presented and artistic. This is also reflected in…

Donut King – Adelaide

Mmmm… Donuts… For me, there’s always room for sweets after lunch in town. What better way to satisfy that craving than to visit Donut King. From your Classic Cinnamon donuts to your high calorie Jam Balls, there’s something for everyone. If you don’t feel like donuts, there’s also coffee, cakes, hot dogs and ice cream….

Cibo – Gouger St – Adelaide

I usually come to Cibo’s when my friend’s want coffee and I want dessert. This is the store I go to after a meal in Chinatown. There’s not much space in the store, but the service is fast and friendly. I went for the Moist Chocolate Cake on this occasion and it was rich and…

Elephant Walk Cafe

I hadn’t heard much about the Elephant Walk until tonight. It’s a cosy little dessert bar located on the busy Melbourne Street cafe strip. It doesn’t have great signage and is very dimly lit, making me wonder whether it was in fact open or not. The place consists of numerous small booths divided by bamboo…

BTS Cafe – Pirie St

I had never heard of this place until a coworker was raving about it. Located on Pirie Street it’s a small little pink store that you cannot miss. The store offers a whole range of cupcakes from normal sized ones to small ones for those watching their weight. On this occasion, I decided to get…

Aroma Cafe – North Tce

When I catch up with friends during the week, they have coffee and I have dessert. I’ve been to Aroma a fair few times and on this particular occasion, I went for the Chocolate Muffin. The muffin was huge and freshly baked. The choc chips in the chocolate muffin only made the experience more tantalizing….

The Summit Mt. Lofty

What a journey the Mt Lofty hike is from Waterfall Gully! Certainly a trek, but what a better way to enjoy the halfway mark than with coffee and dessert at the top. After struggling in that last steep kilometre to the top, I rewarded myself by getting a Raspberry and White Chocolate Muffin. It was…

Un Caffe Bar – King William St

Un Caffe Bar is a regular morning coffee destination for busy (or not so busy) office workers. Located on King William Street, the decor is modern with clean and crisp lines. The staff are friendly and the store seems to always be busy. On this occasion, I had the Caramel Slice. The classic sweet was delicious….

German Cake Shop

It wouldn’t be a proper trip in Hahndorf without visiting the German Cake Shop towards the end of the day. You only need to come to this store to experience one thing, the Bee Sting cake. The Bee Sting cake is amazing! The cake itself is light and sweet, while the honey, almond and caramel…

Cibo – Hutt St – Adelaide

This is the Cibo where all the trendy city dwellers hang out. Set in comfortable and cosy surroundings, it’s a great place to hang out all year round. The coffee is of a consistent quality and the service is fast and efficient. For lunch, I had the Arrosto; roast beef marinated in balsamic vinegar and…
