Correction (4 October 2026): an earlier version of this page listed places and details we could not stand behind. It has been rewritten from scratch: every place below was confirmed at two independent sources on 4 October 2026, and every price was copied from the page it was published on.

Short list. Three places. That is all we could verify for cakes and desserts here.

Two are in Nunawading: Cafe Blanc and Miss Lucy. One is in Mitcham: The Cheesecake Shop. We have not padded the list, and we have not implied there is more behind it.

Every price is copied from the page it was printed on, and every claim is attributed. Where a price was not in what we read, we say so.

The Cheesecake Shop Mitcham — 509 Whitehorse Road, Mitcham VIC 3132

This is a national chain, and the Mitcham store is at 509 Whitehorse Road. Its site says each creation is baked fresh in-store, continuing a tradition over three decades. The chain’s home page, before a store is picked, prints a Signature Celebration Cake at $69.95 and a Pistachio Cream Cake at $49.95. Those are whole-cake prices from the national page, not confirmed Mitcham shelf prices. The site lists Cake Delivery and 1 Hour Click & Collect. Its listed hours are 9:00 to 20:00 Monday to Saturday and 10:00 to 19:00 Sunday.

On the menu (copied from cheesecake.com.au on 4 October 2026):

  • Signature Celebration Cake: $69.95
  • Berry Choc Hazelnut Cake: $69.95
  • Funfetti Cake: $69.95
  • Pistachio Cream Cake: $49.95

Mess forecast: These are whole cakes, so plan a table and a knife at home.
