We’re still looking for the right person to join our little team on Fridays. ☕💛

Experience as a barista is helpful, but we’re just as interested in finding someone who loves people, enjoys working in a small team, and has a genuine interest in good food and coffee.

At Darling Larder, no two days are quite the same. One minute you’re making coffee, the next you’re helping someone choose a cheese for a dinner party, wrapping a gift, or chatting about what to cook for the weekend.

If you’re friendly, reliable, keen to learn, and think you’d enjoy being part of a food-loving community, we’d love to hear from you.

Please pop into the store and introduce yourself to Holly. We’d much rather meet you in person than receive a resume via email.

Feel free to share this post with someone who might be the perfect fit.

One of the products that never seems to stay on our shelves for long is La Boqueria Chorizo — and it's back in stock.

Made using premium Australian pork, authentic Spanish spices and traditional curing methods, it's packed with the rich, smoky flavours that make Spanish chorizo such a kitchen staple.

What I love most about it is how versatile it is. A little chorizo can transform a meal.

🌮 Toss it through Chorizo Tacos with fresh slaw, avocado and a squeeze of lime.

🍳 Add it to a pan of Baked Eggs with Chorizo, tomatoes and beans for an easy weekend breakfast or brunch.

🥔 Stir crispy chorizo through a creamy Chorizo Gnocchi with spinach, garlic and parmesan for the ultimate comfort food.

Available in Mild, Spicy and Smoked, there's a flavour for every kind of cook.

If you're wondering what to make for dinner this week, this is your sign. Pop in and pick up a few links, and if you need recipe inspiration, just ask. I'd be happy to share a few favourites. 💛

If you're thinking about Father's Day this weekend, may we suggest skipping the socks and jocks this year?

Instead, give Dad something he'll actually enjoy.

Maybe it's a cheese board loaded with charcuterie, prosciutto, chorizo and all the good things. Or perhaps a big breakfast with crispy chorizo, eggs and a drizzle of chilli oil.

For the Dad who loves to cook, our Greek Grilling Spice paired with a vibrant chimichurri is perfect for a slow-roasted lamb lunch shared with family and friends.

Know a pickle enthusiast? (There are more of them than you'd think.) The Hank's Pickles range from the USA has developed quite the following and pairs beautifully with a G&T, cold b**r or a good wh**ky.

And for those who love a curry night or pasta feast, we've got shelves full of inspiration — from Thai and Goan curry bases to our favourite Saturday Night Pasta sauces and spice blends that make dinner easy.

The best part? You don't need to know exactly what to buy.

Pop in this week, tell Holly a little about your Dad, what he loves to eat, and your budget, and we'll help put together something thoughtful, delicious and guaranteed to be more memorable than another pair of socks.

See you in store this week 💛

Our French bistro tables have arrived, and we’re so excited to finally share them with you.

They’re the perfect spot to enjoy a coffee, a freshly made panini, and a little sunshine while watching the world go by.

Creating a space where people can slow down, connect, and enjoy good food has always been part of the vision for Darling Larder. These tables are a small step towards that, and we’re looking forward to sharing even more with you in the months ahead.

So next time you’re picking up your cheese, coffee, or lunch, why not stay a little longer?

Pop in, grab a seat, and enjoy a moment in the sunshine with us. 💛

One of the things I love about is that they never compromise on flavour.

We've just received three new Luvio Chocolate Bars, sweetened with pure maple syrup and crafted for those moments when you want something genuinely delicious.

🍫 Toasted Coconut & Sea Salt
🍫 Roasted Hazelnut & Fleur de Sel
🍫 Salted Caramel Crunch

The maple syrup gives these bars a beautiful, complex sweetness while letting the cacao shine. No artificial sweeteners, no fillers, no shortcuts — just thoughtfully sourced ingredients that create a rich, satisfying chocolate experience.

They're the kind of chocolate you keep hidden in the pantry for yourself... until someone discovers your stash.

If you're already a Loco Love fan, you'll want to try these. And if you're new to the range, this is a pretty delicious place to start.

Pop in this week and pick up a bar (or three). I'd love to know which flavour becomes your favourite. 💛

Sometimes it’s the simplest things.

A few cans of quality imported seafood. Fresh sourdough. A setting sun. Good friends around the table.

We’ve just had a fresh delivery of imported seafood arrive in store, and if past experience is anything to go by, it won’t stay on the shelves for long.

These are the kinds of pantry staples that turn an ordinary afternoon into something special. No fuss, no complicated recipes — just great ingredients shared with great company.

Pop in and stock up for the weekend. Holly would love to help you choose a few favourites.

One of my favourite ways to make weeknight cooking easier is to have a few really good spice blends in the pantry.

We've just restocked the Gewürzhaus range, and there's a delicious new addition I'm excited about — Mama's Meatball Mix.

It's one of those products that does all the hard work for you. Simply mix with mince, egg and breadcrumbs and you've got flavour-packed meatballs without chopping a single onion or garlic clove.

And don't stop at meatballs. Think meatball subs, spaghetti and meatballs, chicken noodle soup with meatballs, or a tray of meatballs served with herby mash and a quick tomato salsa.

We've also restocked some of our favourites:
✨ Egyptian Dukkah
✨ Speedy Stroganoff Spice
✨ Ribeye Roast Rub
✨ Quick Butter Chicken Blend
✨ Bavarian Roast Chicken Spice
✨ Roast Vegetable Salt (our go-to for crispy potatoes!)
✨ Everything Bagel Blend (brilliant on eggs and avocado toast)
✨ Cardamom Pistachio Sugar for baking and desserts.

Sometimes the smallest additions make the biggest difference. A jar or two in the pantry can completely change dinner - and usually results in very clean plates.

If you're looking for a little inspiration this week, pop in and have a browse. Tell me what you're cooking, and I'd love to recommend a blend to match. 💛

I get so excited when these arrive... and I know a lot of you do too.

Mario Fongo is back in store, including the beautiful Mother-in-Law's Tongues and the hand-stretched Grissini that never seem to stay on our shelves for very long.

I'm especially excited about the new Onion from Tropea PGI flavour. It's savoury, fragrant and full of sweet onion flavour, making it the perfect excuse to open a good cheese.

The traditional and wholewheat Mother-in-Law's Tongues are one of my favourite things to serve with an oozy triple crème or a scoop of Gorgonzola Dolce Latte. They're crisp enough to scoop up every last bit without taking over the flavour of the cheese.

And the Grissini... well, they rarely make it to dinner at my house! They're beautiful on their own, wrapped in prosciutto for an easy aperitivo, or served alongside a simple meal.

If you're putting together a grazing board this weekend, or just looking for something a little different for the pantry, pop in and pick up a pack. I'd love to help you choose the perfect cheese to go with them. 💛

One of the best-kept secrets at Darling Larder? Our paninis.

Available fresh every Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, they’re made using the same beautiful Australian and imported ingredients you’ll find throughout the store.

Think fresh stracciatella, prosciutto, artisan salumi, Gruyère and whatever else is looking its best that week. Our pesto, caponata and accompaniments are all made in-house using seasonal ingredients, so the menu is always evolving.

What we have fresh, we make.

Pair one with a coffee and you’ve got the perfect lunch, whether you’re grabbing something on the go or taking a well-earned break.

If you’ve tried one before, you’ll know exactly what we’re talking about. And if you haven’t… this is your sign.

Pop in this week, say hello, and treat yourself to lunch. We promise you won’t be disappointed. 💛
