Correction (3 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 between 2 October 2026 and 3 October 2026, and every price was copied from the page it was published on.
A dessert list should be a list of builds. What is on the plate. What it costs. When the doors are open. That is what this page gives you, taken from each place’s own pages.
Six places, all with Oakleigh addresses. Five sit on Eaton Mall or Portman Street. Some print prices. Some do not. Where a price is missing, we say so. Greca Street is the odd one out: it is a Greek restaurant and wine bar, and the facts we hold for it are savoury dishes and drinks.

The Vanilla Lounge website lists the dessert bar’s range as frozen yoghurt, ice-cream, pastries and cakes. Its tagline is “DESSERT BAR - DO IT YOUR WAY”. Forksake describes it as a playful new offshoot just across the way at 18–20 Eaton Mall.
Hours on its own site: Monday to Wednesday 12 PM - 10:30 PM. Thursday and Friday 12 PM - 11 PM. Saturday 10:30 AM - 11 PM. Sunday 10:30 AM - 10:30 PM. The site says it closes on Orthodox Easter Sunday, Christmas Day and New Year’s Day. We found no prices on its page.

TODCO: The Oakleigh Doughnut Co — 36 Portman Street, Oakleigh VIC 3166
The site calls TODCO artisan doughnuts and specialty coffee since July 2017. It lists Vegan Yeast Raised Doughnuts and a Gluten-Free tag. The store panel for Oakleigh reads 8am – 9:30pm.

The feed also names vegan flavours such as VEGAN CINNAMON SUGAR and VEGAN BISCOFF CREME. A yeast-raised doughnut is a soft, bread-style dough that is fried, not a cake-style one.
On the menu (copied from todco.com.au and todco.com.au/products.json on 3 October 2026):
- BIRTHDAY CAKE: $5.00
- COOKIES & CREME: $5.00
Order: The site says you can order doughnuts online and pick them up from one of its three locations.
Nikos Cakes (Nikos Oakleigh Quality Cakes) — 25-27 Portman Street, Oakleigh VIC 3166
Nikos is a patisserie and cafe. Its site says that whether you are eating in or collecting a box on your way through, there are more than 90 sweet varieties to choose from. It also talks of bringing the unique style of Greek coffee culture to the Melbourne coffee scene.
The cafe menu link on its site did not load when we checked, so we state no prices and no hours for it.
Order: Eat in, or collect a box, as the site puts it. Ask in store for prices.
Vanilla Lounge — 17-21 Eaton Mall, Oakleigh VIC 3166
Vanilla Lounge’s site says it is open seven days a week from 7am until 11pm. It describes award-winning cakes and pastries baked daily, and a range of over 100 traditional Greek biscuits and pastries. It also calls itself a family place, a celebration place and a community meeting place.

Greca Street — 66 Portman Street, Oakleigh VIC 3166
Greca Street is a Greek restaurant and wine bar, not a dessert counter. Its site says it is fully licensed with no BYO, and mentions food matched with regional Greek wines. The menu prices we copied are for savoury dishes and drinks, not sweets, so we are not naming a dessert here.
The site lists Monday and Tuesday as closed. Wednesday and Thursday 12.00pm - 9.00pm. Friday and Saturday 12.00pm - 9.30pm. Sunday 12.00pm - 9.00pm. On the drinks list, APEROL SPRITZ is $20 and ESPRESSO MARTINI is $22.

Cote Terra — 17 Station Street, Oakleigh VIC 3166
Cote Terra’s contact page lists Monday to Saturday 7:30am – 2:30pm and Sunday 8:00am – 2:30pm. The Oakleigh Traders directory describes artisan coffee, gourmet sandwiches and brunch in a relaxed, contemporary cafe. The site also lists CT Night every Thu, Fri and Sat from 4:00pm to 9:00pm.
The sweet prices we have come from the CT Night menu image uploaded in September 2026. Brownie is $7.50. Basque Cheesecake is $7.50. We could not read a day-time menu, so we do not know if the same sweets are served in the morning.
On the menu (copied from coteterra.com.au on 3 October 2026):
- Brownie: $7.50
- Basque Cheesecake: $7.50
- Wagyu Burger(I): $26.00
