There’s something ever so wholesome about getting goods delivered straight to your front door. Maybe it’s the glorious idea about not sitting in Sydney’s infamous traffic, or maybe it’s the thought of being able to chill in your house slacks all-day but whatever it is, we love home delivery.
And to add to the ever-growing list of epic things you can get delivered straight to your front door, we bring you all the desserts worth throwing your cash at only to have them miraculously turn up at your doorstep. Think fancy croissants, soufflé pancakes, cinnamon doughnuts, cannoli and a whole, whole, whole heap more.
Enjoy lockdown while you can, these are the best desserts to get delivered or takeaway in Sydney.
Jumbo Bake-At-Home Apple Crumble From Peanut Butter Bar
Leichhardt
Amp up your dessert feasting with Peanut Butter Bar’s jumbo apple crumble. This mammoth tray of crumble, which serves around four people, comes with vanilla gelato and peanut butter shots (made to drizzle all over your apple crumble) so you can nail iso date night the right way. Swoon!
Cheesecake Biscuit Slices From Lattice Slices By Flo
Wentworthville
Prepare your bellies for one of the greatest biscuit creations of all time. If you’ve never heard of Lattice Slices From Flo, the team here makes crunchy pastry treats with flavoured cheesecake fillings and yes, they’re moreish as hell. You can order up an assortment of these treats with flavours looking like Oreo, "Mango-Pash", Hershey’s Caramel and Bounty too. Our favourite will always be the original vanilla lattice slices though—are they the creamiest dessert in Sydney? We’d back that.
Tray Of Tiramisu From Piccolina Hunters Hill
Hunters Hill
Sometimes you just have a solid hankering for a slab of good old fashioned tiramisu. Kings of this coffee-soaked treat, Piccolina, have this guy made to order in two different serving sizes. There’s a small tray that’s perfect for two (ie. a perfect way to finish off iso date-night) or if you live among particularly hungry housemates, the family slab, which feeds up to 10 hungry humans, is your jam.
