Mezzapica was one of the first Italian cake shops to open in Sydney. For years many Italians relied upon Mezzapica to supply the torte and cannoli for all their celebrations and a bride would not think of getting married if she didn't have a cake from Mezzapica.
Many years later and there's lots of competition. The number of Italians making their way to Mezzapica for their celebration cakes have dropped but Mezzapica have fought back. They now offer a delivery service and they sell to a number of shops all over Sydney.
Walking into the mall shop you wouldn't think that they would be big enough but out the back the pastry chefs are busy working all day making the shells for the cannoli, patisserie cream and cakes for orders have never been so brisk.
Moving with the times, Mezzapica makes cakes from cupcakes, all the standard cakes ie: mudcake, several different varieties of mousse cake, cheesecakes and specialty cakes eg: handbags, soccer balls and gingerbread houses.
Next door a Mezzapica cafe has opened and it serves Mezzapica cakes and coffee. Try getting a seat there on the weekend, there's rarely a vacant table. read more
