Exquisite & extravagant

In just ten years B&P; has become an institution, a Melbourne original. Loved and trusted for Darren's decadent, made to order cakes and desserts and for his painstakingly handmade creations including small batch jams, confectionary and chocolate. They are so dedicated to their craft they even have their own beehives.

I love his colorful and fresh pastry style and his unique aesthetic draws the attention of all of us. Chef Purchese is an internationally respected professional and above all a great human being!"
