The Pearl of Highgate - Perth

Into the bead of highgate on the way into the work to get a cake for morning tea. there are so many beautiful cakes to choose, is a bit overwhelming. I finally settled on the pear and polnta (I think it is birne and polnta or it could be mandel flour) which was presented beautifully with poched pears in the torte and dried pears on the head. Oh, my God. it was the most beautiful cake I've ever eaten. nicely moist and light and not too sweet (I am not a fan of creamy cuddly cake.) even the non-canned cake eaters at work were convinced to try a bit and some went back for me. seriously, these cakes are just a tad more expensive than the mass produced...read more

My favorite bakery in perth and one of the best I experienced in Australia. friedly cook, consistently amazing eating. try the orange cake and the torte. brote are also exceptional.

Shows one of the best patisseries in the perth. the Swiss owner bakes his beautiful mortal with traditional European techniques. the mandel croissant and Blueberry/Rhubarb muffin are pure happiness. friendly service always and competitive prices. if I didn't die on a low carb I would be on this place every day.

Bought gluten free cake for afternoon tea. the gast says there are mold on this cake and there was! so back in the loading and given reasons like, there is no cooling in the display cabinet, this happens when there is lemon in a cake, could pie zinn or not enough wrappers etc. replaces the cake....big deal! will not be back. word of mouth is their best advertising.

There is too much to choose from so you would definitely return back for more. On my first visit, tried the almond croissant frangipani tart..both were top quality. On my second visit today, tried the chocolate brownie, macadamia tart, raspberry rhubarb tart and a slice of swiss apple. Unfortunately they ran out of pies so thats for another time. All the things I tried were exceptional, you could tell a difference between them other commercially baked goods..these were made with a lot of love and care. I was searching for a good bakery...read more
