Welly Desi Bites is a home-based bakery in Johnsonville, on Truscott Avenue, that makes eggless cakes, and it bakes vegan and gluten-free options too. Every cake is made fresh to order, with custom designs and themes for birthdays, anniversaries, weddings and baby showers. The bakery also makes Indian sweet special cakes and fresh fruit cakes. Its range includes number and alphabet cakes, image-based cakes, and custom cakes in the flavour and design the customer chooses. Cupcakes come in chocolate, vanilla, red velvet and blackforest, or custom flavours, and the pastries include chocolate, vanilla and strawberry cream fillings. Orders are placed online.
Customers say the designs and flavours are the highlight. One customer ordered a customised 30th anniversary cake with a lychee-flavoured fresh cream cake and said it exceeded their expectations. Another ordered a gluten-free birthday cake and said it was the best they had tried. A parent who ordered a butterfly-themed first birthday cake said the team worked closely with them on the design, the size was right for the number of guests, and it was delivered on time.
