The team making some very interesting croissant and pastry items that were once sold at the Cannery Markets in Rosebery now have a proper shop frontage in Darlinghurst next to Messina.
This makes sense given that the bakers were from Messina. This business has been brought to us by three well known names from the food world; Tom Mitchell (executive chef at Messina for nine years and previously head pastry chef at Zumbo Patisserie), Florian Fritsch (head chef at Messina for eight years, previously worked at Dinner by Heston and Rockpool) and Remi Talbot – full time Shadow Baker, previously head chef at the Messina Creative Restaurant for six years and a pastry chef at Den (Japan).
They’ve put together a range of unique pastries, and the menu does change. Think custard tarts, Pandan or peanut butter croissants and beautiful Foccacia. These pastries showcase creativity of flavours, skill in production and their aesthetic has us drooling.
This week on the menu was PB&J Twice Baked Croissant or Lemon Basque Cheesecake Tart; Custard Tart Danish and even a Biscoff Brioche to name a few. We went down the savoury line though, ordering a crispy and very tasty Tarte Flambee Scroll (speck, onion and creme fraiche) and a huge loaf of Tomato and Hot Honey Focaccia. It’s honestly so good and we can see this place remaining super popular.
Make sure you pay a visit soon for your pastry fix.
Open Thursday to Sunday 8am until sold out!
