Sweet As Festival

Get ready for a sugar rush! The first-ever ‘Sweet As’ Festival is a two-day dessert extravaganza in collaboration with Melbourne Food and Wine Festival, The Bearded Bakers and Knafeh Melbourne.
Taking over the open-air sheds, expect over 20 dessert traders offering a delectable array of treats. From classic sweets to innovative creations, there will be something to satisfy every sweet tooth.
The Bearded Bakers, renowned for their famous knafeh and vibrant Middle Eastern baking traditions, will be at the heart of the festival. They’ve even created a signature knafeh inspired by the Market’s diverse traders: Knafeh and Fig. This unique creation blends the sweetness of figs with the rich flavours of knafeh, topped with pistachios and sugar syrup.
