The Verdict
If you’re a Melbourne foodie, chances are you have heard of Brunetti’s. Known for their authentic gelato, espresso and decadent cakes, the original Lygon Street store first opened in 1974 by Pierro Brunetti. It didn’t take long for Melburnians to grow attached to the sweet delicacies, which saw the business outgrowing their original store. So, in 1985 Brunetti’s moved to Lygon street where in 1991 it was purchased by the Angelé family.
After decades of operating both stores together, brothers Fabio and Yuri decided to take their own separate routes. Splitting the chain in half, running one store each, with Fabio Angelé continuing his legacy at the original Carlton location.
The newly named, Brunetti Classico, has kept all of its bustling energy with tables filled inside and out, and white-aproned waiters weaving amongst the mayhem. The traditional Italian eatery has a strong reputation for its pasticceria-style offering, except a range of Italian dessert delicacies including their famed cannoli alongside cakes, and éclairs. Alongside its sweet options, they also dish up an authentic a la carte menu of pizzas, pasta, and salads.
Now, Brunetti Classico is bringing a Taste of Tuscany to Melbourne with its newest creation: the Tuscan Tart. Inspired by the rich culinary traditions of Tuscany, this modern twist on a classic dessert is available in five divine flavors—Chocolate, Pannacotta, Tiramisu, Carrot Cake and Lime. For the first time, customers can mix and match flavours into one tart, creating a bespoke experience. Whether you curate a masterpiece of five flavours or savor a single slice with a cup of Italian-style coffee, this is Brunetti Classico’s own edible renaissance.
But that’s not all—Brunetti Classico is serving up gelato cocktails at their Carlton Gelato Bar. These sumptuous blends of their signature gelato and carefully selected spirits, including options like the Mango Pina Colada and Pistacchio Bailey, are perfect for cooling off. Pair one with your tart for the ultimate indulgence, where dessert and cocktails meet in the most satisfying manner.
