This is a very lovely cafe, with wonderful lighting and atmosphere which gives off a very fancy and quaint vibe. The sweets are delicious and attractive and the customer service is top notch. Highly recommended!
Loved the houjicha croissant for an afternoon tea treat. The buttery flakey pastry hit the spot!
We ordered this beautiful cake from Lux Bite South Yarra. 🤩
This is a Big Heart Cake with light vanilla mousse, elderflower jelly, strawberry compote, vanilla sponge, yogurt and almond crunchy base. 🤤💕 You can get your favourite message on the top and also candles! 🥰 We loved the every bit of the cake!
Thank you so much for this delicious cake Lux Bite!💕
We ordered the brown sugar bubble tea croissant and the Kuma cake the day before and it came at a good time.
I really liked the croissant. The croissant itself was just as well made as the fillings (very buttery and flaky) and the boba balls were a nice contrast in texture. The bubble tea custard cream was also very nice, not too strong which I appreciate as I find it hard eating strong tea flavours.
The Kuma cake was also very tasty. Initially I was worried about the taste of the banana cream because I don't like bananas, but it was more subtle, so I could really enjoy the flavours. I think the strawberry flavour was a bit too subtle, but I enjoyed it anyway.
The only problem I had was the delivery time, but I live probably almost an hour away from their store, so I can't blame them, and they maintained good social distancing when they delivered it.
The Lolly Bag Cake is really delicious and the different layers and textures are fun to eat. But it’s just very expensive for a tiny portion size, we had to cut slithers for our guests.
The durian croissant was amazing! Best filled crossaint.
Madame Coco, this cake is fantastic and as elegant as its name. What a beautifully balanced, creamy cake and not too sweet. Absolutely could not stop at just one slice. Total crowd pleaser for a group of hard-to-please eaters.
Placed an online order for takeaway due to the COVID-19 lockdown. Ordering process was very easy; friendly service in-store!
The Epic Chocolate Cravings cake was delicious, and the perfect portion for one. The cake pairs very well with the hazelnut crust, and the salted caramel-filled truffle is to die for!
I also ordered a Vanilla & Almond Croissant which was nice, nothing special but hey, it’s supposed to be sweet and simple! I bought the Rose, Raspberry & Lychee Croissant for a friend and she said it was really good too!
I can’t wait to try the other items on their menu.
One of the best, of would I say the best macaroons you can find in town. Made to perfection 💯 Obviously not cheap being macaroons but defo worth every penny.
Spotted a couple of Groupon deals, which can go down to as low as $1-2 each.

Luxbite’s croissants come with very innovative asian flavours that are familiar and loved: matcha, pandan, taro and brown sugar boba! I went straight for pandan because honestly, who can resist pandan flavour? Growing up, I remember pandan leaves being mixed in with asian dessert snacks, so I will always have a soft spot for it.
Croissant itself was not warm (and I prefer warm croissants) but it was flaky, crispy and cooked well. It was also BURSTING with pandan cream - the dish will get messy! Best to either it at home or at the store itself, not while walking around.
Pandan cream was delicious - good texture and consistency, wasn’t too sickeningly sweet and had strong hints of pandan leaves. I won’t fault you for licking your fingers, because just like fried chicken, this was quite yum.

I have always been a bobba lover! This time i tried this croissant with a bobba fillings 🤭😬 no words to describe how much i love this! I bought 4x and came back for more the next day ! 😬😬 loving al the flavours the the ambience of the place
Their Pandan croissant is the best! It’s buttery and flaky on the outside, soft and creamy on the inside. The pandan cream is very fragrant and the sweetness is just right. I have tried their seasonal taro bubble tea croissant as well but to be honest the pearls are too hard. If it’s softer I would definitely recommend it. Their seasonal lava salted egg “bo lo baau” is delicious and worth a try.
Love it!!! Delicious desserts with history... I've been a LuxBite customer for so long but never post anything before, but last time catering experience was wonderful. Great work and thank you to all staff! I appreciate that you consistently look after my order and inform me over the phone regarding the status. Very good customer service and good communication, rare in Melbourne! Thank you!
Ordered online which was stress-free and easy. Picked up my order and was amazed by the wonderful range of goodies available in-store, will definitely be back!! The cake itself was fantastic, perfectly balanced and looked wonderful.
The desserts are good, not too sweet. A bit expensive but worth trying.
The croissants are nice and crispy and there are interesting flavours.
The tiger tart had unique flavours and good textures.
The Portuguese tart was quite expensive for its size and not fresh when we got it in the afternoon.
There were lots of macaroon flavour options and I liked that they weren’t too sweet.
Packaging is nice and good for gifting.
One of my favourite cake shops in Melbourne! The cakes, desserts and pastries are Luxbite never disappoint - they’re not too heavy, not too sweet, and have the perfect flavour combinations.
I recently tried their I Heart You cake which was delightful! It was super light, almost like a light ice cream cake, with a nice tartness from the jam in the centre.
Another one of my favourites is their Endless Love cake, which is inspired by the famous Ispahan. It’s basically a giant lychee and rose macaron - super light and delicate.
If you’re looking for a place to get a cake then LuxBite is definitely a must try!
Popped in to grab some of their Macau Portuguese tarts and snapped up a pandan cream croissant as well. The egg tart looks dry and stale but it’s INCREDIBLE. The pastry is flaky, the custard isn’t too eggy nor sweet. I highly recommend getting the box of 6 for $20 because two wasn’t enough! The pandan croissant was light and crisp, and the cream wasn’t too sweet or runny so it stayed in the croissant. Pandan always has a strong flavour and it was well balanced in this croissant. Will definitely be back to try more cakes.
Love their yoghurt based cake. Slightly expensive but amazing taste and items. The place is not very big, have always opted for take away.
Nice lovely cakes. Limited selections but focused on producing quality over quantity.
Very friendly service. Great place for an afternoon coffee and delicious cakes
I have purchased a number of cakes and croissants from this venue and my favourite is the matcha stick croissant. I loved everything else that I have tried here but the cream is so perfect and the matcha flavour is of a high quality. I wish My croissant lasted forever. Ever lasting matcha croissant please, that or I’ll have to keep visiting and getting my croissant 🙂
