Your Search for the Best Dessert in Brisbane Ends Here

For some of us, dessert is the highlight of any meal, and that is 100% acceptable. If you’re looking to skip the savoury and head straight for something sweet, that’s more than okay with us, too.

Brisbanites have a penchant for sweet treats, which means the city is dotted with plenty of dessert haunts, specialising in everything from Korean Bingsu to sticky scrolls and tubs of loaded gelato. It’s a veritable dessert buffet out there.

All this talk got you hungry? Read on for the best dessert in Brisbane right now…

Milki Desserts

Dedicated to Asian-inspired sweet treats, Milki Desserts is one of the best dessert destinations Brisbane has to offer. Our pick of the menu is the Bingsu bowl, a Korean shaved ice treat topped with soft serve and sweet sauces.

Fancy something smaller? Opt for a mochi ice cream. Stretchy and sticky, this Japanese dessert is a texture lover’s dream.

Darvella

This Brisbane bakery is as decadent as it gets. So much more than baked goods, Darvella‘s treats are loaded with extra toppings like gooey chocolate, crumbled chocolate bars and housemade jams. To run alongside the baked items, you’ll find a loaded drinks menu, including indulgent concoctions like the cookie butter latte. The best way to keep up with what is available each week is the Darvella Instagram page, just be sure to get in early if you have your heart set on something — popular items can sell out quick!

It’s perfect for a long overdue catch-up with someone special.

Multiple locations

Naga Thai

There’s something about Thai desserts that is so exciting. Lashings of fresh fruits like mango and coconut, ultra-sweet flavours like pandan and fragrant additions like rose water and jasmine add uniqueness and freshness. Naga Thai has a rotating menu and are constantly blowing us away with their creative combos, ranging from mango Basque cheesecake to dark chocolate mousse and ginger coconut sticky rice pudding.

Miss Sophia’s Gelateria

A step up from your standard ice cream store, Miss Sophia’s Gelateria leans into all the extras. Decadent flavours fill the cabinets, with the likes of rocky road, milk and cookies, and white choc, raspberry and fudge brownie taking up regular trays. And that’s just the beginning. Once you’ve picked your poison, move over to the toppings bar for even more special additions. Shakes and sundaes are also on the menu, should you be that way inclined.

240 Stafford Road, Stafford

Sonder Dessert

Located in Sunnybank, a cultural and foodie mecca, Sonder pays homage to traditional and modern Japanese cuisine.

Highlighting Japan’s unique flavour profiles by using high-quality matcha, yuzu, beni imo and sakura, no detail is missed when it comes to crafting these delightful desserts.

Whilst their picture-perfect creations may look too good to eat, we strongly recommend you sample their range of floats, parfaits and specialty desserts.

Pippa’s Pantry

Packed to the rafters with vegan treats, Pippa’s Pantry is a crafty girl’s fantasy. Each sweet treat is crafted in small batches, with love, and boasts a distinctly nostalgic air. The menu (and decorations!) shift and change with the seasons, but you can expect the likes of pies, tarts, ‘long boi donuts’ and cupcakes.

565 Old Cleveland Road, Camp Hill

Once you’ve indulged in the best dessert in Brisbane, you can wrap your night up perfectly by tucking up with a good book. Or if you’ve taken your desserts to go, why not pack up a cute little hamper and head to one of Brisbane’s best picnic spots to share your sugary treats with your friends?
