Top 5 Must-Try Pastries at Our Sydney Patisserie

One of the best things about patisserie is that there truly is something for everyone. From classic favourites to mouth-watering showstoppers, every pastry at Zest Patisserie is baked to perfection and made to impress.

Whether you're a die-hard almond croissant lover or looking to elevate an event with something outrageously indulgent, here are our five must-try pastries from Zest Patisserie—plus how to get them delivered straight to your door.

Almond Croissant

An all time classic. And for good reason! Our almond croissants are buttery, flaky, and filled with just the right amount of almond cream. There's a reason why this pastry is so widely loved around the world, and our almond pastry lives up to its reputation. Pair it with a rich Italian-roasted coffee from our cafe, and you’ll be in heaven. It’s the perfect way to start your day, or even enjoy a light lunchtime treat.

Baked Lemon Meringue Tart 

Another timeless classic, our lemon meringue tarts feature a buttery-baked pastry base with golden, zesty lemon curd, and topped with light fluffy meringue that’s torched to perfection. For those who are coeliac or gluten intolerant, fear not! We offer an equally delicious gluten-free option so no one has to worry about missing out! 

While you can never go wrong with a slice of lemon meringue tart, these cakes are also the perfect addition to birthday celebrations, anniversaries, or seasonal events and family gatherings throughout the year. 

Mango Passion Fruit Tart

Looking for something a little more fruity? This is the one for you. Our Mango Passionfruit Tart gives the classic Lemon Tart a refreshing twist that is absolutely irresistible. The tanginess of passionate fruit with the tropical sweetness of mango is a pair made in heaven, plus we brûlée the top and finish it with a touch of Chantilly cream. This tart is bright, bold, and bursting with flavour—it’s Summer in a pastry.

Croquembouche

The ultimate French showstopper—our croquembouche is simply a must-try! This towering piece is assembled with dozens of profiteroles, which are choux pastry filled with custard. While vanilla custard is considered the classic, we can also fill with chocolate, mild citrus flavours, or coffee custard if you desire. If that’s not enough to tempt you, each profiterole is dipped in our own in-house toffee, assembled into a tower, and then wrapped in strings of caramelised sugar. 

As you can tell, this is no ordinary pastry! This magnificent dessert is best suited for special occasions or events where a showstopping crowd-pleaser is just the thing to top off the event. A croquembouche is ideally best served on the same day it is made, but luckily, our Sydney cake delivery service can help you do just that. Just remember to store in an airconditioned area for safe keeping! 

Assorted Mini Pastry Selections

Struggling to choose? We get it! That’s why we offer our customers assorted trays of mini pastries and cakes so you can try a little of all our best patisserie treats! Like the croquembouche, these selections of desserts are excellent for corporate events, parties, and celebrations, or you can try them out at our cafe in Sydney. Giving you the chance to try individual pieces of our best cakes and pastries! 

Our selection of mini tarts and cakes include Portuguese tarts, apple crumbles, baked New York cheesecakes, fruit tarts, cannolis, pecan caramel, a wide range of gluten free mini cakes and petit fours, and so much more. Like the croquembouche, we recommend these pastry selections for large events or parties.
