This acclaimed French patisserie prides itself on quality produce, and their extra luxe bakes bear testament to their claim. Our Burpple community hasn't stopped raving about the Pièce Montée ($13.80), a two-tier profiterole tower, and the San Domingue ($12.80) – think caramelised plantains, banana cream, chocolate mousse and a layer of chocolate ganache, housed in a dark chocolate sphere.

One of the most raved-about cakeries for their rich and sophisticated desserts, Mad About Sucre is not one to disappoint. Lovingly handcrafting every cake from scratch with no artificial flavourings and 20-60% reduced sugar, they give you a reason to indulge in more than just one deliciously well-balanced treat. Get the San Domingue ($12.80), a beautiful dome of chocolate mousse with caramelised plantain vanilla cream sitting on a Brittany crunch and topped with a rum-filled chocolate truffle. Do try the Passionne ($10.80) and Moulin Rouge ($10.80); despite having just a few cakes on the menu, each one is just as tantalising as the next!
While Mad About Sucre primarily does European-style bespoke tiered cakes, they also offer exquisite bakes at their sophisticated, Parisian-inspired cafe shopfront. Their Le Cordon Bleu-trained chef leads the baking team in achieving sweetness through creative combinations of ingredients, resulting in aesthetically stunning creations that never fail to indulge the senses. Notably, their cakes are served in courses, with the light-tasting cakes always served before the heavier ones - that is the extent of Mad About Sucre's dedication to delivering the perfect gustatory experience. Go for the Coco Citron, a combination of lemon curd and coconut mousse, and the San Domingue, an intriguing creation of rum, dark chocolate and bananas.
