If you’ve ever picked up one of the dreamy bouquets from our store and thought “Wow, who made this?” – allow us to introduce you to Tala Draper, the creative heart and hands behind Drapers Field Flowers.

To celebrate all the incredible mums, grandmothers, mother-figures, and women who’ve helped raise us right – we’re giving away two dreamy pamper prize packs just in time for Mother’s Day.

Our Spiced Fruit Sourdough English Muffins were made for mornings like these. Toasted, topped with a thick layer of cream cheese, fresh seasonal fruit, a handful of sweet dukkah, and a drizzle of honey.

Our bakery and Gallagher Drive store have moved about 500 meters down the road, giving our bakers more room to move, our retail crew more space to shine, and our customers an even better experience.

Each year, as we head into April, we take a moment to honour the spirit of remembrance with two limited-edition products that mean a lot to us – our ANZAC Cookies and Fruit Loaf.

We’ve got two delicious updates to share this week—one for your long weekend planning, and one we’ve been dying to tell you about…

We’re proud to share that our Classic Hot Cross Buns have just won silver at the 2025 Baking New Zealand Hot Cross Bun Competition. Judged among the best bakers in the country, our buns were recognised for their craftsmanship, flavour, and attention to detail.

At Volare, we’ve always believed that the best ingredients make the best products. That’s why we’re excited to announce that we’re now using apples from Newstead Orchard in our seasonal sweet Danish – and hopefully, this is just the beginning.

It’s that time of year again — Hot Cross Bun season! Take a peep behind the curtain at how these plump, spiced, fruit-studded beauties are made and pre-order yours online today!

This Friday, just in time for Valentine's Day, we're bringing you something extra special. Our Raspberry Cheesecake Brownie is everything you love in one indulgent bite — rich dark chocolate brownie swirled with creamy cheesecake and juicy raspberries, topped with whipped white chocolate & raspberry mascarpone ganache, freeze-dried raspberries, and delicate white chocolate shavings.

Whether you’re making sandwiches, toasties, or a quick breakfast on the go, our San Francisco Tin Loaf it’s the kind of bread that makes life (and lunchbox prep) a little easier. 

We’re buzzing with excitement to introduce Hunt & Gather Bee Co. as the newest addition to the merchandise shelves in our stores. A selection of locally sourced honey will make the perfect pairing for your favourite Volare loaf or simply a sweet treat to elevate your day.
