- Exceptional organisational skills.

**Our Business**

Black Star Pastry opened its first boutique patisserie in Newtown in 2008 and since then we have grown into an institution with four stores across Sydney and two in Melbourne.

We are most famous for our Strawberry Watermelon Cake which has become a social media sensation, with the New York Times declaring it “the world’s most instagrammed cake.”

**Our Culture**

Black Star Pastry fosters a fun, supportive and inclusive culture that has brought together a group of highly engaged and collaborative team players who enjoy a hands-on, fast paced environment.

**We love the brand, and we love what we do
