Salted Caramel Custard Gateau

Salted Caramel Custard Gateau — Layered, Luscious, and Utterly Indulgent

A gateau worthy of the name. Our Salted Caramel Custard Gateau layers light vanilla sponge with smooth caramel crème pâtissière, silky vanilla crème pâtissière, and salted caramel buttercream — finished with elegant piped cream, vanilla dollops, caramel drops, and delicate white chocolate flicks. Rich, refined, and made fresh to order by our award-winning Melbourne team.

About This Cake

This is a cake built in layers, each one adding to the last. Tender vanilla sponge is filled with a smooth caramel crème pâtissière and a silky vanilla crème pâtissière, then wrapped in salted caramel buttercream that ties it together with a gentle sweet-salty balance. The top is finished with piped cream peaks, dollops of vanilla and caramel, and delicate white chocolate flicks — understated, elegant, and every bit as impressive when it's cut as when it arrives. This is a proper gateau, made for people who appreciate one.
