A favourite of body builders out on their #cheatday, Demazzi is making a name for itself by milking the \u201cfreakshake\u201d. What may have begun at Patissez in Canberra has taken on a life of its own, but these guys are taking things up a notch with the help of a Streets ice cream. The simple act of sticking a Golden Gaytime upside down in a tall glass dripping in caramel sauce puts this caf\u00e9 on our map. Chuck in a Caramello Koala that slowly sinks into the shake and you\u2019re in serious sugar territory a few sips in. If honeycomb and caramel aren\u2019t your thing, the Oreo and Nutella or Ferrero Rocher shakes are just as tempting. <em>1142 Mount Alexander Rd, Essendon<\/em><\/p>\n<h2>Pancakes, Pillar of Salt<\/h2>\n<p>How do you stand out in a suburb packed with cafes catering to the breakfast crowd? You take the humble pancake and you add a hipster twist. Drizzled in berry compote, dotted with strawberry Callebaut chocolate drops, topped with wafer scrolls and finished of with a few scattered rose petals, the pancakes at this cute caf\u00e9 are a work of art. Don\u2019t forget the activated walnuts and micro herbs to make you feel a bit better about yourself. You won\u2019t go hungry after this feast. <em>541 Church St, Richmond<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Calorie counters look away, Expedia\u2019s Listopedia of the OTT desserts will leave you drooling.
