In the land of fairy floss, cronuts and the almighty freak shake, it’s safe to say that Sydney, Australia is foodie heaven, especially for those with a sweet tooth. While some traveler’s trip to Australia would not be complete without visiting the Sydney Opera House or Bondi Beach, those sugar freaks NEED to try the Sydney’s best desserts!

Don’t let the strange location fool you, this place is a hidden treasure! Home of the legendary tella balls (if you’re not hip to the lingo, they’re nutella injected donut holes), Foodcraft Espresso & Bakery takes it to the next level with topping these bad boys on top of sweet milkshakes!

If you find yourself wandering about the Rocks of Sydney, you must stop at the well-known Ananas restaurant. This Parisian restaurant will not only fill you with some of Sydney’s finest French cuisine, but will leave you in utter happiness with some of the best dessert you have ever tasted on planet earth. Not to mention a delectable wine pairing to go alongside your sweet dish.

Gelato Messina

Be prepared to wait at least 30 minutes for what I personally believe is the best gelato in Sydney! Gelato Messina may be a tiny place, but what they lack in size they make up for in flavor. And their flavors are pure insanity, great insanity, but insanity nonetheless. What even is ‘Hasta La Basta’ gelato? See for yourself and you won’t regret it!

Doughnut Time

All about that boutique dessert life? Donuts are all the rage these days and Sydney has its own all-star in the ring. The doughtnuts at Doughnut Time are flakey and the service is bomb, but the glazes and icing are on another level. With flavors like Ferrero No Share, the Walter White and the Jack Sparrow, you’ll be hooked (and back in line every, single morning).

Black Star Pastry

Enjoy amazing cake flavors like strawberry watermelon or pistachio lemon zen.

Once you pass the hip beach goers at Bondi, you’ll find a beach cafe filled with delicious afternoon treats, and if you’re not too late, some of Sydney’s best dessert. Since you’re not too far from those glistening, Sydney beach bodies, they give you some delicious, clean-eating options. But we came for the famous cronuts and thick shakes, obvi.
