Luther's Scoops
The single clearest, most specific answer in this candidate set to whether Australian dairy and produce actually show up in the product: named local dairy (St David Dairy) and named local eggs (Burd), from a maker with an internationally trained pastry background rather than a gelato-specific one.
What to order
Butterscotch ripple, described by Broadsheet as a bestseller, made with English-style butterscotch lollies and a dash of salt
What we know

- Started as a market stall selling tubs and cones made with seasonal produce from fellow stallholders before opening the Brunswick shop in 2020 (Broadsheet, Brunswick listing)
- Milk and cream come from St David Dairy, and Burd eggs are used in the custard bases — both named local suppliers (Broadsheet, Brunswick listing)
