Correction (11 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 9 October 2026, and every price was copied from the page it was published on.
Three sweet stops. That’s the real count. One is a cupcake shop in West Footscray, and two are in Maidstone: a pizzeria with cannoli and semifreddo, and a cafe with a waffle.
This page is a spec sheet for dessert. Each entry says what the menu prints and what it costs, where we copied a price. Every place was checked against at least two sources, and each detail is credited to the source that printed it.
