We’re proud to represent the Waikato — and even prouder that our everyday bread, the one we make for our customers every single morning, has been recognised on a national stage.

Meet The Maker: What The Food. Supplying all Volare stores with raw, vegan, gluten-free treats – that actually taste good.

Last weekend, we packed up the pastry and hit Claudelands for the Waikato Food Show, and what a weekend it was! This year’s event was the biggest and best yet, and we were proud to be part of the action once again as sponsors of the Masterclass Hub.

Sweet or savoury? You don’t have to choose. This winter, we’re introducing two new seasonal Danishes that bring comfort and craftsmanship together in every bite.

Soup season has officially arrived, and with it comes the return of some of our most comforting, cold-weather favourites — including a few special additions to the Volare lineup.

Thursday, June 26 | 10am–12pm | Volare @ MADE Markets, Hamilton. We’re teaming up with our friends at Webster’s Tea for a relaxed pop-up event at MADE Markets in Hamilton — and you’re invited.

Same heavyweight cotton rib, same embroidered logo, same snug fit that sold out last time. Only this time, we’re adding a new colour to the mix: Coffee.

There’s nothing fancy about Ciabatta – and that’s the point. It’s light, golden, and full of character. Tear it, toast it, build a sandwich with it. Our Ciabatta is simple, rustic, and always the first loaf to disappear.

These Raspberry Lamingtons are our take on a national classic — done properly, with the right ingredients and a little bit of care. Available now in all Volare stores!

This classic Eggs Benedict recipe makes the most of our English Muffins, pairing them with smoked salmon, fresh greens, and a no-fuss hollandaise you can whisk together while the eggs poach.

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.
