About Vanessa

A Kitchen Built For One Thing
Cakes Made Properly, Made For You.

Cakes by Vanessa is a Melbourne-based cake and dessert kitchen, working with home cooks’ care and a professional’s precision. Nothing here comes off a shelf — every order starts with a conversation about your event, your taste, and the look you’re after.

The kitchen sits separate to the house, fully registered with council and inspected by the EHO every year, so you can trust what happens behind the scenes as much as what arrives on the day.

  • Custom-designed to your brief
  • Annual EHO inspection
  • Council-registered kitchen
