Lux Bite specialises in mini cakes and macarons. It has a clean decor and looks very inviting. You can either sit at the shared large marble table or at the bar looking out of the window. They also serve food like eggs & avocado on bread. All the foods, coffees and macarons look very appetising. Great place for a coffee/ cake stop. Relaxed feel - will go again

Approximate cost: $6.50 coffee & macaron of the day

Yesterday was the first time that I know about Lux Bite. I never know that this place even existed. I had coffee + macaroons. The flavour of the macaroons - You cant find in the CBD. I had the mandarin jaffa, oreo, pandan, kaya, rose & lychee and bamboo oolong tea. Yum! Definitely would go back there again .. some time soon

Okay, so Melbourne lacks an Adriano Zumbo cake shop... or does it?

Enter Lux Bite - a cake shop with an exquisite range of high quality cakes, macaroons, coffees, teas, croissants and the list goes on.

I got some cakes and macaroons from there and I can guarantee you that it gives Adriano Zumbo's macaroons a run for their money. With flavors such as Kaya (Coconut Jam), Pandan, Green Tea and Pistachio and Bamboo oolong tea you won't see these in Sydney! For me however it was the cakes that are the star attraction. The Epic Chocolate Craving and Caramel Cravings are the two I really liked - dense and thick strong chocolate and caramel flavors shone through and was a small piece of heaven! Contrast that with the Stoned Meringue Monster with its light and fluffy centre and melt in the mouth meringue exterior and you have the difference between heaven and... well, you get the idea!

Prices are much higher than my other favourite - Brunettti's but it does offer something different. Macaroons run around $3 per piece depending on how many you want and cakes run between $8 to $10.

Approximate cost: $10
