Nestled in the industrial back streets of Spotswood, Victoria, lies a hidden gem waiting to be discovered. As you step through the big red doors into the
spacious warehouse, you are immediately enveloped by the warm, and inviting aroma of Candied Bakery’s freshly baked bread and ground coffee.
This isn’t just any bakery—it’s a place where Aussie, European, and American baking traditions come to life, all crafted by hand with love and care.
If you’re a local or just passing through, Candied Bakery is the kind of spot where you’ll find yourself returning time and time again. The counters are filled with an array of sweet and savory delights, from custard-filled donuts and giant choc chip cookies to homemade pies, sausage rolls and focaccias. And behind the scenes, there’s a helpful ingredient to their success: Roband products.
When you visit Candied Bakery, you’re stepping into a story of growth and passion. The husband-and-wife team behind the bakery started out in a different location, but when a spacious warehouse—formerly a craft brewery—became available, they knew it was the perfect place to expand their business. Every aspect of the bakery reflects their dedication to quality, and that includes their choice of equipment.
As you enjoy one of their famous Apple Pie Shakes, made possible by the Roband Milkshake Maker, a recipe inspired by a trip to San Francisco, where the owners discovered pie shakes—a delightful mix of apple pie, ice cream, and milk—they brought this concept back to Melbourne. The Roband Milkshake Mixer allows them to achieve the perfect texture, ensuring every shake is creamy, rich, and full of flavour.
Nestled at the entrance sits a Roband Black Pie Warmer which fits seamlessly with the
bakery’s modern aesthetic. This sleek product keeps their homemade pies and sausage rolls at the perfect temperature, so you can enjoy them at their best—warm, fresh, and delicious. And if you try one of their pizzas or focaccias, you can thank the Grill Max Toaster for heating it to perfection every time.
Roband isn’t just a brand at Candied Bakery—it’s a trusted partner that’s been part of their journey from the start. The owners fondly recall how even their parents relied on Roband equipment, and it’s a tradition they’ve continued. “We’ve always used Roband throughout the years due to its reputation. It’s a brand we can count on to help us showcase our food and ensure it tastes just as intended,” they say.
So, the next time you’re in Spotswood, make sure to visit Candied Bakery. With plenty of parking, friendly staff, great food, and excellent coffee, it’s the perfect spot to experience the difference that Roband’s quality products make—for both customers and staff.
