Dulce Bakehouse — Restaurant in Melbourne

If I had to give u zero and I would right now. On sun 23/12/18 which I was suppose to be picking up my Cake (I paid in full $30) but couldnt make it because i Had service that day. So next day went & trying to pick up my cake was Told they had to chuck it in the bin. Then said they will give me discount for my next purchase. Then went back on Thursday 27/12/18 was told that discount was only applied to that day mon only. Seriously what’s the point of bringing up the discount to me when it’s already expire on Monday. It’s ridiculously to mention to me you’ll give discount when it’s alredy finishing. Then the owner husband even dare to come out and said to me he spend two days & 4hrs in making it for me and he is loosing out.

Let me tell you this owner!!!!

1. I don’t care how much time you had to spent on that cake because every Owner has to spent for hours and days in preparation/work because that is all part of their work!! That is also applied to everyone else who owned a shop that has to spent time to get to their workplace running! Not just you!!!

2. how dare you mention you are loosing out of pocket & that you could have sold that cake when I already pays in full $30?! I’m the one is loosing out not you!!! Plus I’m not freaking getting your cake for free so why are you complaining?!! Complaining that you loosing out!

The most pathetic excuses you give me!! And I never ever come across with people like you blaming the customer’s! Without customers where are you going to be making your rent money from?

I am definitely not coming back to your shop & I rather give my...

I feel upsolutely ripped off. Rang today to see if I could get a small birthday cake for a family celebration. They said yes they could make me one but only in a small size as it was last minute. Fair enough. We all know what a small size cake looks like around the 20cm sz. As I sent my son to pick it up ,I asked him to get a few more cakes so I could dress it up to make it look a bit bigger as I had about 20 people to cater for and they said the cake would feed 10 to 12 people... When I saw the sz of the small birthday cake , I was furious,it was nothing more than a cake topper on a a 20cm tray which had plenty of room to fill around the edges , which they charged me $40 plus the extra cakes another $40 something more... I cannot believe how small and pricey they have become. The owner needs to take a good hard look at himself and what he is doing . This is not the first time I and my friends buy birthday cakes from here ,and even thought we haven't complaint before this definitively needs to be said and put out there. They are rip off's. Your much better going to buy a cake a the cheesecake shop where you know the size is going to be right. I definitely won't be buying there again and I won't be recommending anyone I know buys...

Overall: 4/5

Lovely staff welcome you as you are drawn into this minute store from its warm cozy smell.

This bakehouse offers a variety of Argentinian savoury goods and sweets that are freshly baked.

Almond croissant (5/5): Pastry of the almond croissant was flakey, with a nice crunchy texture coming from the almonds. As you bite into the beautiful masterpiece, a semi-sweet semi-oozing custard coats your tongue and creates the most delightful feeling. Different from a regular almond croissant which contains frangipane, this one is filled with a nice soft custard that is perfectly sweet since the icing sugar gives it already a mellow sweet taste to the almond.

Beef empanadas (4/5): first time eating something like this and it was very interesting! Beef mince inside was juicy and flavourful, with a nice kick of olive. I hate olive with a passion but this was a needed addition to the pastry.

With their savoury pastries, I recommend toasting them if you do not eat them straight away to enjoy it.
