MFWF at Fed Square
Fed Square is Melbourne Food & Wine Festival’s hub in the heart of the city this March.
Fed Square is a lightning rod for the huge baking and pastry energy coursing through our town. Bringing together some of the finest bakers to present all the pastry deliciousness at Baker’s Dozen, an open-air market that you won’t want to miss. For two days, Fed Square is your one-stop shop for the best tarts, cakes, croissants, buns, canelés and more with hit-favourites like All Are Welcome, Baker Bleu, Lune, Tarts Anon, and To Be Frank rocking the line-up, plus so many more.
It wouldn’t be autumn, meanwhile, without hot cross buns, and you’ll find every bun worth its butter at the Hot Cross Bun Bar, presented by Western Star. At the Bun Bar, you’ll have the chance to try four different bakers’ takes on the classic, with Bread Club, Falco, Loafer and Melbourne’s own Bakers Delight all coming to the party, hot and cross. Would you like us to assign someone to butter your bun? Leave it to the Butter Butlers, suited, booted condiment concierges that live to spread. Now that’s what we call cultured butter.
Vote #1 Scone, presented by Bakers Delight, meanwhile, brings three never-before-seen scone flavours to the party: lemon and blueberry, apple and caramel, and raspberry and peach. Your job is to taste each one, before casting your vote and electing your champion. The winning scone will be featured in the hallowed pastry cabinets of selected Bakers Delight stores – and you will be ensconced in the annals of baking history.
Thirsty? Get electro-lit on electrolytes at the Coco Cabana, presented by cocobella, and quench that thirst with the rehydrating power of coconuts remixed into clouds, coffee and other bevs you’re going to love.
