Cuppa Turca

Best Known For

Housemade baklava and hand-churned Turkish ice cream.

For a slice of Turkish heaven, Northcote dessert lovers head to Cuppa Turca on High Street. This eclectic dessert parlour with a striking feature wall in earthy tones of orange and sea green, beckons guests into an authentic décor of copper tables and stools, where plump cushions await those longing to linger over a decadent sweet treat and strong coffee. Specialising in stretchy Turkish ice cream dondurma, Cuppa Turca’s flavours range from pistachio to hazelnut and halva and can be enjoyed by the scoop, or sandwiched between koska wafers and halved slices of baklava. Be tempted by a tasty treat such as kunefe - a crispy, cheese filled dessert made from finely shredded pastry, sprinkled with bright green pistachios, cut into wedges and teamed with an organic tea or hot sand brewed coffee.
