Top Dessert Spots in Fremantle
1. Muffle — Fremantle Markets
We might be biased, but our Muffle waffles are genuinely something special. Freshly baked to order with a crispy golden exterior and chewy interior, topped with everything from Nutella and strawberries to Biscoff and cheesecake. We also serve soft-serve cones, sundaes, and thick shakes.
2. The Heritage Dessert Trail
Fremantle's cappuccino strip is lined with cafes and dessert spots. Start at the Markets, wander down South Terrace, and you'll find gelato, cakes, and pastries at every turn.
3. Seasonal Specials
Fremantle's dessert spots love seasonal produce. Summer means fresh mango and berry toppings, while winter brings warm apple pie waffles and rich hot chocolate thick shakes.
