I ordered a cake for my birthday. The staff on the phone and in the cafe were very pleasant and courteous. The flourless orange cake with chocolate ganache and topped with a chocolate plaque and flowers etc. was a hit!! My party guests loved it and I’ve luckily got a couple of slices left to enjoy this week. Thankyou ��

We got the hazelnut cake for my mum’s birthday. The top is covered with a layer of hazelnut praline and the cake itself has layers of sponge with chocolate mousse. We’re glad that my mum really enjoyed the cake!

Was very lucky enough to try out 2 of Cocoa Patisserie's signature cakes at a birthday celebration. Just looking at the cakes were mouth watering. The cakes looked high quality and well decorated and wasn't too sweet, so it definitely suits all taste buds. Personally, I found their New York Cheesecake quite heavy, as I'm not too much a fan of cheesecakes. On the other hand, the Hazelnut praline was super delicious. It was hazelnut sponge filled with layers of chocolate mousse and sprinkles of hazelnut praline. The hazelnut praline was well caramelised, crunchy and brought you this great aftertaste with the cake. Definitely can't wait to try out more cakes from Cocoa.

We ordered 4 cakes from Cocoa for a work function and they were all superb. Top quality with a good balance of flavours and textures. I will be adding this place to my must-visit list.
Highlights for me were the Caramel Nut Cheescake and the very chocolatey Pleasure Dome.

The cakes here are amazing. Following a recommendation from a friend I called and spoke to the owner to ask about having a cake made with a couple of specifics wanted in and on the cake to feed 50 people and had to meet allergy requirements.
The owner got back to me following discussions with the chef within 15 minutes.
The cake was amazing, absolutely delicious and the service spot on.
Will definitely be using Cocoa Parisserie for celebration cakes from now on.
The coffee is magnificent too.

Well done and thank you for your fantastic service and thank you to the chef.

For what it's worth I find myself returning here.

For the flat whites, the hot chocolates, pots of extra strong tea. And in hot weather their creamy iced counterparts.

It's quick cozy and popular.

Love Cocoa for birthday cakes and a treat.

A friend's birthday snuck up on us and we'd forgotten to order a cake! Oops! Nipped down to Cocoa on Sunday morning and they delivered with a small New York cheesecake and Milk chocolate mousse cake. Both cakes were lovely, keeping it simple yet delicious.

The single cheesecakes are a great size for afternoon tea. Ordered 5 and the 6th was free - perfect! The cold set cheesecakes are delicious and there is a good variety of flavours.

We have previously ordered the raspberry mousse cake however found it to be a little dry on the outside and weren't big fans of the overall taste.

Loved the Pleasure dome cake. Was searching for a last minute cake place and I am really happy that I found this place. The pleasure dome cake was a big big hit for me and my colleagues! Definitely recommend this place if you looking for something different than the usual... :)

The only great cake shop in Kew Junction. All our past few years birthday cakes were ordered at this shop. Pleasure dome cake is always a hit with the family. Lots of staff changing and coffee can go better. Lunch time has alot to offer such as baguettes, pies and wraps. Lovely place to have coffee break at the courtyard 🎂

I have recently moved into the area and had been recommended by my neighbour to try out Cocoa. My first Impression was that it was a busy café, had a great buzz to it and lots to offer. All staff were smiling and seemed very friendly and welcoming. A young blonde girl served me at the cake fridge (which looked AMAZING) and helped me pick out a hazelnut cake which I had with my latte. I could not fault this café. Coffee was great, and was promptly delivered despite them being really busy, the Hazelnut cake was just amazing and the service was great. I thank my neighbour for recommending Cocoa and I will be back. They also have the loyalty card. I will be back

Food & Lattes. Food & lattes, I have weekly from Cocoas and which I just enjoy!
The chunky beef pie & the veggie wraps are my fav.

Love this place!. I go to this place very regularly. I love the fact that the staff greet you by name and know exactly how you like your coffee.
If I had to recommend 2 things to try, it would have to be the veggie wrap (so fresh) then sweeten your buds with the mini pleasure dome!! It delivers the pleasure and some.
Love the place and staff especially the tall barista with the short hair!

Best coffee in Kew!. After living in Kew for fifteen years and trying almost every coffee shop in the area, I can tell you that Cocoa Patisserie makes the best cappuccinos, mochas, and café lattes in Kew Junction. There is a beautiful balance between milk and coffee, the portions are generous and at a reasonable price. Further, the staff work very efficiently and you rarely have to wait long to be served! The store has a warm and inviting atmosphere and the staff are always very polite and friendly and not only are they very skilled at making various beverages but they also have a delicious selection of cakes, baguettes, muffins, biscuits - just to name a few. Each morning there are selections of mini-sized cup cakes which are covered in icing and smarties to replicate cats, dogs, tigers, mini monsters, and happy faces - it's always a joy to watch young children pick one of these small cup-cakes whilst having a hot-chocolate with their parents. There is a huge selection of sponge and mud cakes, decorated with delicate white and dark chocolate flowers, as well as tarts and gluten free cakes - all of which make great desserts for special occasions! Or you may just like to sit back and enjoy a nice coffee with a delicious baguette to have for lunch, I would recommend the BLT or chicken which are made fresh every morning by a team of cooks. So the next time you're in Kew, swing by and make sure you try some of their organic lemonade too!

Amazing cakes. Cocoa Patisserie is probably one of the cakes shops which I always visit for occasional treats and celebration cakes.

The staff is always quick and serves me fast - they're friendly too. I don't ever recall having to wait a long time to be served here.

There's a lot to pick from but after all I love their cakes the most and have tried pretty much every single cake they have.

I highly recommend the pleasure dome and the hazelnut cake.

Amazing coffee, fabulous cakes. Cocoa Patisserie serves the most delicious cakes right in the heart of Kew. Barristas Martin and Ingrid never fail to make a delightfully smooth latte and the customer service is second to none. The cupcakes are also a hit with the kids and the veggie wraps are a tasty and healthy lunch option. Make sure you don't leave Kew without a stop off at Cocoa Patisserie!

Magnificent Cakes. The cakes here are terrific. Little works of art that taste as good as they look and are not prohibitively expensive. (The small size is roughly $30, but it feeds 6 people). If you ask, they will do special birthday cake versions. I have never had an issue with the staff, they are very friendly and happy to discuss the various cake types. I have tried a number of them now and I haven't had a dud yet. I would thoroughly recommend this place if you are looking for an exceptional cake that doesn't cost the earth.

Decent coffee, great cakes. I've been here for years, and have always found the service friendly and efficient. The standard of the coffee is one of the better ones in kew, although I have to admit I ask for a strong one here. The cakes are great - I've sampled most. The ingredients are real and recommendations are the chocolate cake, which was made for one of our functions, and the raspberry cheese cake. My mum who doesn't eat cheese really enjoyed this cake on her birthday. The lemon tart is nice too. The only thing is I found the hot chocolate a bit on the sweet side. Otherwise, the best cafe so far in the kew junction.

Deadset fav!. This is my deadset favourite coffee shop. I know all the staff and always get great coffee. They go out of their way for me (& others I observe). My fav savory item is the individual egg & bacon pie (weekends only) and my fav sweet item is the very plain lemon tart which bites you back! They have an area in the display cabinet reserved for mini cupcakes: the designs are fabulous for kids of all ages!

You seriously have to get their raspberry cheesecake as the next birthday cake. It is to die for!!!! I get it for EVERY birthday and I'm considering buying it just to eat because it's THAT good! Plenty of sweet and juicy raspberries that taste fresh cover the top with a delicious raspberry sauce oozing down the sides and the cheesecake filling is creamy but not too heavy, and so tasty, and the crumbed base is perfection. Don't think their coffee is great though... But the raspberry cheesecake! Ahhhh!

As a former pastry chef I have to admit I rarely bother with most patisseries. There's just way too little honest pastry out there, too much flash and not enough substance. There are a few good ones around though and Cocoa is definitely one of them. Quality ingredients, nothing artificial as far as I can tell, well made into lovely to both eat and look at desserts. And they are honestly priced too for the quality you're getting. Delicious! The pastry chef really goes out of his way to make special orders something special. I had my wedding cake made here, and I'm REALLY picky about pastry. This place is great.

I first came across Cocoa Patisserie‘s cakes when we had the Hazelnut Mud Cake for one of my colleague’s birthdays. It has since become of my go to cakes for just about any occasion.  Cocoa Patisserie is located on High Street, Kew and surprisingly it closes around 7pm on most nights which is great for after work if you just want to grab something. Cocoa not only serve cakes but pastries, coffees too (of course) but I haven’t yet had the pleasure to try. I’ve only tried their cakes, such as their Tiramisu and Pleasure Dome but their Hazelnut Mud Cake tops them all.   What I love about this cake is the layers, the ever so light chocolate mousse combined with the moist mud cake (gluten free apparently!) and topped with chopped roasted hazelnuts and toffee pieces that adds the much needed crunchiness. Decorated with ganache and dark and white chocolate. I adore nuts in cakes, and especially with cakes that aren’t too rich or sweet. It adds everything that I would want in a cake; moist, l

I love the cakes here, the strawberry tarts are absolutely divine, the raspberry mousse and cheesecakes regularly appear on my dinner table when I have guests. The general staff are helpful and great to deal with. Definitely worth a try. Keep in mind the strawberry tarts are made to order, but I promise they are worth it!

Amazing take home cakes especially the raspberry cheesecake, praline cheesecake and (chocolate) pleasure dome! They taste fresh with real ingredients. The smaller cakes are also great - we've had the lemon tart/meringue, vanilla slice and carrot cake. The small lolly covered cupcakes are a hit with young children!
