The Cake Club: Armadale’s Sweetest Destination for Bespoke Cakes and Irresistible Treats

The Cake Club has quickly become a beloved haven for dessert enthusiasts across Melbourne. This charming bakery and cafe combines the warmth of home baking with professional flair, offering everything from show-stopping custom celebration cakes to chunky New York-style cookies that have locals returning week after week.

 

A Passionate Partnership Born from Home Baking Roots

The Cake Club was founded by two talented home bakers, Kendyll Van de Ven (of Cake by Kendyll) and Liv Glen (of Cake n Co). With a combined eight-plus years of experience creating stunning cakes for Melbourne celebrations, the duo joined forces to open their physical store at 722 High Street, Armadale. Their vision was simple yet ambitious: to create a community-focused space where exceptional flavour meets beautiful presentation, all while maintaining the personal touch that made their individual businesses successes.

 

Today, The Cake Club remains true to its home-baker ethos. Every item is made with care using quality ingredients, resulting in treats that taste as good as they look. Whether it’s a wedding cake, a birthday centrepiece, or a mid-week pick-me-up, the team prides itself on turning moments into memorable experiences.

What’s on Offer: From Cookies to Custom Creations

Walk into the store and you’ll be greeted by a tempting display cabinet filled with daily delights. Signature items include:

• Chunky NYC-Style Cookies: Thick, gooey, and packed with flavour – think bold combinations that have earned a loyal following. Seasonal specials, like the June Tiramisu cookie (a coffee-infused creation with sponge fingers, vanilla buttercream, and cocoa), keep things exciting.

• Brownies, Slices, and Cake Tubs: Rich, fudgy brownies and indulgent slices perfect for sharing or treating yourself.
• Custom Celebration Cakes: The cornerstone of the business. From elegant vintage designs to fun, personalised creations, these made-to-order cakes are praised for both their beauty and taste. Customers rave about fresh fruit fillings, silky buttercreams, and flawless execution for events of all sizes.

• Coffee and Cafe Vibes: Pair your treat with a quality brew for the perfect Armadale morning or afternoon stop.

The team also offers New Zealand-inspired treats and limited-edition goodies that rotate regularly, ensuring there’s always something new to discover.

Community and Connection

What sets The Cake Club apart is its genuine community spirit. The welcoming atmosphere on High Street makes it more than just a bakery – it’s a place where customers become regulars and staff remember your favourites. Testimonials highlight not only the exceptional quality of the baked goods but also the friendly, accommodating service. Many describe their cakes as “the best in Melbourne,” with guests at parties and weddings frequently asking for the supplier’s details.

The store frequently hosts fun events, such as birthday celebrations with $2 coffees, free cookies, and entertainment, reinforcing its role as a neighbourhood favourite.
