welcome to dessert kitchen
At Dessert Kitchen, we craft more than just desserts – we create moments of delight for every occasion. From airline treats enjoyed in the sky to breads and allergen friendly options, our team blends innovation, care, and uncompromising quality into every product we make.
As a New Zealand-owned commercial bakery, we proudly supply leading airlines, foodservice providers, supermarkets, and restaurant chains nationwide. We also partner with brands for white-label and contract manufacturing, offering scalable solutions from concept to production – all underpinned by trusted quality and food-safety excellence.
Our factory is Halal Certified and has fully separated factory areas that are Vegan Certified, Coeliac Certified, Gluten Free, Nut Free, Egg Free, Soy Free and Dairy Free. We are the creators of Allergywise Bread.
At Dessert Kitchen, we believe food should bring people together and we are dedicated to creating products that combine flavour, consistency, and scale. Our portfolio includes Dessert Kitchen (cakes, slices, mousses, breads), Allergywise (allergen-free breads and pizza bases), and Inclusion Kitchen (baked inclusions for ice cream, confectionery, and bakery).
