This rooftop bakehouse – the cherry on top of shopping centreBurwood Brickworks,in Melbourne’s east – is as playful as it is colourful. The staff wear frilly,pretty-in-pink uniforms to serve coffee from a similarly pink La Marzocco machine,and a fun array of pastries,including a croissant-cookie hybrid called a “crookie”. Savoury winners include sausage rolls filled with dry-aged chorizo fromG. McBean Family Butcher,and a vegan version with broccoli,and pickled radish from the rooftop’s community garden.

Signature item:Pink croissant ($7.80),a tangy,strawberry-filled take on the classic,dusted with organic plum power.
