Christmas Red Velvet Cake Brisbane — A Calm, Handmade Centrepiece

Christmas in Brisbane has a rhythm of its own, sunlight through linen curtains, gatherings that spill from kitchen to garden, and tables that tell stories of connection. For Dello Mano, our signature  Handmade Red Velvet Cake Brisbane is that story in edible form.

Crafted in our Brisbane kitchen by a small team of artisan bakers, each cake is made with pure buttermilk, Belgian cocoa and fresh cream-cheese frosting. For a closer look at where our handmade cakes come to life, explore our  Cake Shop Brisbane – The Heart of Handmade Luxury, the calm centre of Dello Mano’s cake story, where every layer and frosting swirl begins.

The result is a rich, velvety crumb that balances subtle cocoa depth with tangy creaminess, a flavour that belongs beautifully to Christmas.

At Dello Mano, we’ve spent over 18 years proving that luxury is handmade. We bake every Red Velvet in small batches, finish by hand, and send each one out for delivery across Brisbane, the Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast 

There’s a reason so many customers choose Red Velvet as their Christmas cake. Its vivid mahogany crumb and smooth ivory frosting echo the classic colours of the season without feeling themed.

The flavour is elegant yet approachable, a gentle cocoa note lifted by vanilla and tempered by the slight tang of buttermilk. When you slice it, you get texture, lightness, and a soft balance that pairs beautifully with coffee, sparkling wine or even rosé.

Where traditional fruit cakes lean dense, Red Velvet brings lightness, perfect for our Australian Christmas climate. And because each one is baked by hand, you can see and taste the difference from the first slice.

Every Dello Mano cake begins long before the batter is mixed. It begins with our ethos: that food made slowly, with care, creates connection.

We mix each Red Velvet using premium ingredients, real butter, fresh eggs and rich Belgian cocoa. Then we fold in buttermilk to achieve that silky texture. Once baked, our artisan team finishes each cake with whipped cream-cheese frosting and a calm, minimal design.

Our approach mirrors the one behind all our handmade creations, from  Handmade Cakes Brisbane to  Handmade Brownies. We believe real luxury is measured not by excess but by attention.

Each cake leaves our kitchen carefully boxed, ready for next-business-day delivery across Brisbane, the Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast.

Christmas week is our busiest season. To guarantee delivery or pickup for the week of 15 – 24 December, we recommend ordering your Red Velvet Cake at least 5 – 7 days in advance or better still now.
