What Makes a Truly Great Brownie?
There are brownies, and then there are brownies. The difference comes down to three things: quality of ingredients, method, and intention.
At Dello Mano, our brownies are baked slowly, in small trays, to achieve that dense, rich, melt-in-your-mouth texture. We balance fudgy depth with a tender bite, and we never skimp on chocolate. Every ingredient is chosen for a reason, from the creamy butter to the fine Belgian couverture.
It's not just baking. It's craftsmanship.
Try the brownie that started it all, our Classic Luxury Brownie is rich, fudgy, and handmade in Brisbane.
A Taste of Brisbane's Handmade Heart
Today, Brisbane’s food scene is bustling with new voices and exciting energy. It's wonderful to see the growth of small-batch baking and artisanal treats, something that, when we started nearly two decades ago, was just beginning to take root. Back then, Brisbane was still very much in the wave of oversized cupcakes and big, bold portions.
As food researchers and passionate bakers, we saw a different future: one of small, beautiful, handcrafted treats made with the finest ingredients. We stayed true to that vision, quietly working, baking, and believing that food could be both an everyday pleasure and a thoughtful experience.
We’re proud, in our small way, to have helped shape this movement here in Brisbane, alongside a handful of others who believed that handmade would once again matter.
18 years later, we continue to do what we have always done: create brownies by hand, in small batches, for people who truly appreciate the difference.
We started Dello Mano right here in Brisbane. In the early days, we'd sell our brownies at the farmers' markets with our two kids in tow. People would pause, try a sample, and their eyes would light up. It was then we realised that Brisbane was ready to fall in love with brownies.
In recognition of our contribution to Brisbane’s food and business community, Dello Mano was honoured with the Lord Mayor’s Multicultural Business Award — a reflection of our innovation, enduring commitment to handmade excellence, and the spirit of welcome that underpins everything we do.
That connection to community still inspires us every day. Brisbane isn't just where we bake. It's who we bake for.
