SOUTH FREMANTLE — In the heart of South Fremantle, a slice of Italy thrives at Dolce & Salato, a wholesale Italian bakery and café renowned for its authentic sweets, savouries, and warm community spirit. Since its founding in 1999 by two experienced Italian pasticceri, Dolce & Salato has grown from a single shop into a beloved local institution, now boasting six locations throughout Perth, including its bustling South Fremantle outpost.
A Story Baked in Tradition
Dolce & Salato’s journey began with a simple mission: to craft signature Italian treats using only the freshest, highest-quality ingredients and cherished family recipes. The founders, inspired by the joy of sharing their culinary heritage, quickly developed a loyal following.

As the business expanded, so did its reputation for excellence. Today, Dolce & Salato is synonymous with genuine Italian hospitality, offering a welcoming space where customers can enjoy a coffee, a pastry, or a hearty meal, all while soaking in the café’s warm, inviting atmosphere.
