HOW DID SWEET & ME START?

Yadra vinaka,

Sweet & Me is a business partnership that was signed, sealed, and delivered over a bottle of Jose Cuervo by two best friends.

Co-owned by Fijian-born Bertrand Jang (Salia, Nayau, Lau ) and Elizabeth Koroivulaono (Yaroi, Matuku, Lau), Sweet & Me is a speciality cakery that is true to the Pacific spirit. Located in Onehunga, this cakery serves up both sweet and savoury fare. The unique thing about Sweet & Me is our use of fresh Pasifika ingredients and immense pride in promoting the flavours of the Pacific.

The flavours you taste are nostalgic, with some of the recipes and ingredients being passed down from generation to generation. Some of our signature desserts are the Fiji Pineapple Pie, Noqu Viti Cake, Koko Samoa Brownie, and now the mouth-watering Coconut Buns (a sweet brioche bun served with freshly grated and squeezed coconut milk and topped with toasted coconut).

What started as a hobby grew into a passion that led to this cakery, which reflects Bertrand and Lizie’s childhood favourites.

Sweet  &  Me  brings Fijian dessert flavours to Aotearoa.

It is our family’s recipe
Our childhood memories
Our culture
It is our laugh
It is our love
It is Fiji on a plate

Vinaka vaka levu for stopping by!
