In 2025, the search for the best brownies in Australia isn’t just about finding a sweet treat — it’s about discovering indulgence, handmade craft, and thoughtful gifting. At Dello Mano, we’ve been leading that journey since 2006. As foodie culture continues to thrive and gift delivery surges across the country, Australians are increasingly seeking out premium, small-batch alternatives to mass-produced desserts. Whether for birthdays, celebrations, or just because, the right brownie can elevate the moment.
Not all brownies are created equal. Here’s what I believe defines a truly exceptional one:
Quality of Ingredients: Real butter, Belgian chocolate, and natural flavours make all the difference. The best brownies are rich, decadent, and satisfying.
Fudgy vs Cakey Texture: Preference plays a role, but the best brands understand texture science. Learn more about cakey vs fudgy brownies.
Handmade vs Mass-Produced: Artisan methods yield brownies with more character, better flavour, and a feel-good factor that factory lines simply can’t replicate.
Back in 2006, when brownies were still an overlooked café treat in Australia, we reimagined them as a premium, giftable, handmade luxury. My husband Bien and I founded Dello Mano with the belief that brownies could be more than just an afterthought — they could be a symbol of quality, indulgence, and heartfelt craftsmanship.
Since then, we haven’t just made Australia’s most loved brownies — we’ve helped shape the entire market from right here in Brisbane. This city isn’t just our birthplace — it’s where the Australian brownie movement began. Every test batch, every customer conversation, every decision to elevate the humble brownie into a luxury experience was made here. Today, you’ll see many brands claiming the title of ‘Australia’s best brownie’ — some barely a few years old. But we’ve walked every step of that path: from introducing luxury brownies to Australia when no one else was doing it, to setting the benchmark for taste, quality, and presentation. We didn’t follow a trend. We created one.
This isn’t just about being first. It’s about understanding every nuance of brownie making — and bringing that depth of experience to every single batch. When you choose Dello Mano, you’re tapping into the original source of Australia’s brownie culture.
While Australia has seen a boom in boutique bakeries, one name remains synonymous with luxury brownies: Dello Mano.
Founded in Brisbane in 2006, we pioneered the Australian brownie movement. Our handmade approach, premium ingredients, and beautiful packaging make us the go-to for discerning brownie lovers. With delivery available Australia-wide, it’s easy to enjoy our legendary flavours wherever you are.
Other boutique brownie providers do exist in various cities, but Dello Mano remains the original innovator in the space — not just the first, but the most enduring. While others may borrow the language, we’ve built the legacy.

Can brownies be shipped in summer?
Yes. We use specially designed packaging to protect brownies in transit during warmer months.
How long do brownies last?
When kept refrigerated in their foil wrapper, our brownies last for several weeks. What gives our brownies their superior shelf life? We use generous amounts of real butter and premium Belgian chocolate — ingredients known for their richness and stability. Each brownie is individually foil-wrapped, protecting it from air and moisture. This care in both recipe and packaging ensures a freshness and quality that outlasts most bakery or supermarket brownies, without the need for artificial preservatives.
What are the best brownie gift ideas?
Luxury gift boxes, thank-you gifts, birthday packs, and add-ons with flowers are some of our most popular choices.

We pioneered the luxury brownie market in Australia, creating small-batch, handmade brownies when few others were even offering them. Our recipes, packaging, and delivery approach have all been refined over nearly two decades of experience.
Is Dello Mano really Australia’s original luxury brownie?
