About Baby J's
We're Australia's first dessert deli — whole cakes displayed like a deli counter, sliced to order by weight and wrapped in butcher paper. We're a small, family-run shop in Werribee with a loyal local following and big plans. It's a fun, real food concept and we need someone who gets that.
The role
We need a reliable, skilled baker to produce our core range and keep the fridge stocked. You'll be working independently in the kitchen — following our recipes, maintaining quality and consistency, and taking genuine pride in what comes out. This is a hands-on production role, not a management position.
What you'll be making
Cheesecakes: New York, No-bake, Basque
Pavlovas, tarts, and slices
Cakes, Brownies, cookies
Seasonal specials as the menu grows
Batch production to keep the deli fridge full
What we're looking for
Experience in a commercial kitchen or bakery
Can follow a recipe precisely and produce consistent results
Good cake decorating skills — presentation matters
Self-managed, reliable, and takes ownership of their work
Food safety certificate (or willing to get one)
A genuine love of desserts
Hours
Around 38 hours per week to start. You set your own hours within our production window of 1am–3pm Monday - saturday— we care about output, not clock-watching.
Bonus if you're keen
Down the track there's real prospect to help shape our catering menu and contribute recent ideas to the range. No pressure — just upside for the right person who wants it.
