Creative Gelato Cake Chef

2 weeks ago

Fitzroy, Australia L'ARTE DELLA GELATO Full time $35 - $66 per year

About the Role

Do you believe desserts are more than just taste — that they can be art, emotion, and storytelling?

At L'ARTE DELLA GELATO, a boutique gelato brand in Melbourne, we are searching for a passionate, artistic Gelato Cake Chef. Someone who can transform gelato cakes into unforgettable creations — cakes that don't just look stunning but leave people with lasting memories.

This is not a routine kitchen job. This is your stage for creativity, where your cakes become part of our brand's story and identity.

What You'll Do

  • Craft unique, eye-catching, and artistic gelato cake samples.
  • Express emotions and themes through dessert design — cakes that make people stop, smile, and take photos.
  • Collaborate with our team to capture photos & videos of your creations for branding and marketing.

What We're Looking For

  • Minimum 2 years of experience in gelato cake making or pastry art.
  • Strong artistic and creative skills — an eye for color, form, and storytelling.
  • Must provide at least 3 high-quality photos of past dessert creations (gelato cakes preferred).
  • Detail-oriented, responsible, and committed to excellence.

What We Offer

  • Creative freedom — not just baking, but bringing your artistic vision to life.
  • Fair compensation + creative bonuses for outstanding designs adopted into our seasonal line.
  • Exposure and recognition — your work will be showcased, photographed, and shared with our growing community.

How to Apply

Please apply via Indeed with:

  • Your resume
  • At least 3 photos of your most creative dessert work

Job Types: Full-time, Part-time, Fixed term, Casual

Contract length: 6 months

Pay: $35.00 – $66.28 per hour

Expected hours: 12 – 40 per week

Benefits:

  • Employee discount
  • Professional development assistance

Application Question(s):

  • Question:

Do you have a portfolio or photos of your past gelato or pastry cake creations that you can share?

Options:

  • Yes, I have at least 3 high-quality photos or portfolio links ready to share.
  • No, I do not have photos or portfolio available.

Experience:

  • Pastry chef: 2 years (Preferred)

Work Authorisation:

  • Australia (Required)

Work Location: In person
