Discover Handmade Luxury at Its Finest

Brisbane’s best brownies didn’t just happen. They were handmade — with heart, hustle, and Belgian chocolate. If you’re searching for the best brownies in Brisbane, look no further than Dello Mano — Australia’s original luxury brownie creator. For over 18 years, we’ve been handcrafting small batch brownies and cakes using premium Belgian chocolate, real butter, and a dedication to taste you can feel in every bite.

The Original Brownie Pioneers of Brisbane

Long before the brownie boom, Dello Mano redefined the humble square. Founded by husband-and-wife team Deb and Bien Peralta, our family business began with a dream: to bring back the art of handmade food. What started at a humble  farmers market has grown into a nationally recognised brand, enjoyed by celebrities, luxury brands like Cartier, and brownie lovers across Australia.

We still make every batch by hand. And we always will.

A Legacy of Handmade Excellence

What sets Dello Mano apart is not just our ingredients — it’s our unwavering commitment to the handmade process. In an age where automation and shortcuts dominate food production, we’ve stayed true to our roots. Each brownie is mixed, poured, and baked by hand by  real people - who care deeply about every step.

That human touch brings with it something machines can’t replicate — a feeling. A richness. A soul. We like to say that our brownies carry the fingerprints of the people who made them. Because to us, that’s where true luxury lies.

Over the years, we’ve trained artisans in our kitchen to follow not just a recipe, but a philosophy. Every swirl of caramel, sprinkle of nuts, and cut of chocolate is intentional, guided by our family’s belief that food should be made with care — and eaten with joy.


What Makes Our Brownies So Special?

  • Handmade in small batches: Every brownie is crafted by our kitchen team, never mass-produced.

  • Premium ingredients: We use rich Belgian chocolate, real eggs, butter, and carefully sourced inclusions.

  • Original recipe: Our Classic Luxury Brownie is still made using our very first recipe — perfected over 100s of tests.

  • Gifting made meaningful: Beautifully boxed and ready to deliver across Brisbane or Australia-wide.

The Joy of Giving, Reimagined

Gifting at Dello Mano is about more than ticking a box. It’s about making someone pause, smile, and feel seen. That’s why every box is designed to delight — from the first impression to the final bite

We offer custom messages, elegant packaging, and the ability to schedule deliveries in advance. Whether you’re sending a birthday surprise, corporate thank-you, or sympathy gift, we take care of every detail so your gesture lands with warmth and meaning.

Need to send 10 or 200 gifts? Our corporate concierge service makes it easy — just email or call us, and we’ll do the rest. You can even include your own branding for an extra personal touch.

Whether you're treating yourself or sending a heartfelt gift, our brownies are a moment of indulgence that always feels personal.


Cakes Worth Celebrating

Dello Mano isn't just famous for brownies. Our range of celebration cakes, from Red Velvet to Chocolate Mud, are known for their bold flavour, beautiful handmade finishes, and generous quality.

We also offer seasonal cake flavours and limited-edition designs throughout the year. From our iconic Valentine’s Day Red Velvet Heart to festive Christmas puddings and handcrafted Easter cakes, we create cakes that speak to the moment. Every celebration deserves something real — made with care, by people who love the process as much as the result.

Our Signature Cakes: Handmade for Your Moment

Every cake at Dello Mano begins with a small batch and a big idea: to make celebration feel personal. We use whole eggs, real cream, and time-honoured techniques — no shortcuts, no preservatives. Just honest cake, made by hand, with a lot of heart.

Here are just a few of our most-loved favourites::

  • Red Velvet Cake – Rich, vibrant, and layered with real cream cheese frosting

  • Classic Chocolate Mud – Deep, decadent, and perfect for the serious chocolate lover

  • Milkshake Cake – A fun, nostalgic flavour that kids and adults love

  • Cockle Mud Cake – Our unique Dello Mano twist with bold cocoa and velvet smoothness

And because we know not every celebration is planned weeks in advance, we offer same-day Brisbane delivery on selected cakes and next-day shipping Australia-wide for our brownie cake range.
