SWEET DREAMS ARE MADE OF THESE
They truely are.
If you know the song, we know you have a wealth of life experience.
But no, we’re not talking about the song but desserts today!! Desserts are often referred to as "sweet dreams" because they have the power to transport us to a realm of indulgence, pleasure, and happiness. Just like dreams, desserts offer a temporary escape from the realities of everyday life, allowing us to indulge in sensory delights and experience moments of pure bliss - after all, yeah you deserve it!
The sweetness of desserts not only satisfies our taste buds but also stimulates our brain's pleasure centers, triggering the release of feel-good hormones like serotonin and dopamine. This can create a sense of euphoria and contentment, akin to the feelings we experience during pleasant dreams.
What we’ve found is that desserts often evoke nostalgic memories and emotions, reminding us of good, happy times and special occasions spent with the people that mean the most. Whether it's Grandma's homemade apple pie, a decadent slice of birthday cake or any item on the ZZ menu, desserts have the power to evoke feelings of warmth, comfort, and nostalgia, much like cherished dreams from the past.
More times than not, the act of enjoying desserts is often associated with relaxation, indulgence, and self-care. In a hectic world (we colloquially call ‘adulting’) filled with stress and responsibilities, taking the time to savor a delicious dessert can feel like a luxurious treat allowing us to unwind, pamper ourselves, and indulge in a moment of pure enjoyment.
So yes, desserts are like having sweet dreams because they offer a tantalizing escape from reality, evoke positive emotions and memories, and provide a moment of indulgence and pleasure that nourishes both the body and soul.
Yeah, you deserve it!
YEAH, YOU DESERVE IT!
We tell no lies
The perfect summer combination
If you’ve been here before, you’ll hear us saying that “YOU DESERVE IT”. It’s true - we tell no lie. You deserve a sweet treat because amidst all of life's challenges, it's important to celebrate the small victories and moments of joy.
You can't tell us twice; Indulging in a delicious dessert is a simple way to reward yourself for your hard work and resilience. Life’s been getting harder - we get it. Adulting (or school) sucks. However, take this as a reminder to prioritize self-care and embrace life's sweetness, even in the midst of chaos. So go ahead, treat yourself to something delightful—you've earned it, yeah you deserve it!

“Most popular ones”
Officially founded in the heart of the COVID-19 pandemic, the idea of ZZ came by well before this. It started one night after a long 14 hour work day where my cravings for a sweet treat that’s well deserved were through the roof. I was hunting for something to curb this craving. I found it. I took my first bite. Suddenly, this overwhelming feeling of satisfaction flooded my mind and taste buds. Here, I thought to myself “Yeah, I deserve this”. It was at this point that I knew I had to do something within the dessert space here in Melbourne. And so, ZZ was born.
It’s been a rollercoaster journey and I can’t believe we are now into our third year of being open! There is nothing within this journey I do regret as I’ve learnt so many things through-out this journey. I’ve enjoyed every second of this and it's been an absolute pleasure serving our menu to our customers in and around Moonee Ponds. We are so grateful for all our staff, our suppliers and of course, our loyal customers! We thank you all for the ongoing support through-out these 3 years and we would not be where we are today without you all!
What’s in for the future of ZZ? Only time will tell.
