The best cakes ever. Always fresh, made to suit the occasion and OMG taste delicious. The smaller sweets are perfect. I use Kurt’s for all cakes for special occasions.

I got two cakes, one for my wedding and one for my birthday. I was not able to taste my wedding cake but the black forest was rich and delicious. I find that the things your order are made fresh. Would recommend them! Thanks Kurt's...Cake.More

I ordered a black Forrest cake for 4. They delivered it for a charge but I was happy to pay. It was delicious. Happy to go back. Highly recommended.

The cupcakes looked inviting but the red velvet( or so I thought) was reddish but not velvet, partly defrosted( at 12.30pm) and stale. The iced latte was cold but not as I ordered. Disappointing!

I don’t know if I can add anything that hasn’t already been said. If you want an exceptional cake and exceptional quality don’t go past Kurk cakes. It is simply amazing and any cake will be the centrepiece for any occasion.

Because? I love vanilla slice ,and now I have had Kurt’s I will never be happy with any other vanilla slice again . The custard was creamy and smooth , the pastry was crisp and light and the icing subtle . I’m going back today...to try something else . Coffees were good and they had dairy milk as well as others . I can see why you get the accolades ..More

Lovely service by the girl who served me. $6.40 or something like that for a takeaway pie is pushing it a bit but not too bad. The pie pastry was very odd. More like a quiche pastry. Not the worst pie ever but the owner...might do well to sample a few other meat pies and review his pastry recipe.More
