If you’re anything like us, you’ve probably got a mum (or a mum figure) in your life who deserves more than just a bunch of servo flowers and a lukewarm cup of tea in bed. This Mother’s Day, we’ve pulled together everything you need to treat her like the queen she is, right here on the Central Coast.


Whether she’s a croissant-before-coffee type, a cake-for-breakfast kind of woman, she's probably the glue that holds family lunch together ad deserve a break, so we’ve got your back. Here’s how to make this Mother’s Day on the Central Coast one to remember.

1. Start with Breakfast in Bed (Obviously)

What better way to say “I love you” than with a plate of warm, buttery croissants, fresh sourdough, hot coffee and her favourite newspaper (or just peace and quiet)?


Or better yet, our dreamy Mother's Day special; a Strawberries & Cream Maritozzi (cream bun)?


Stock at Copacabana with all the breakfast in bed essentials: eggs from happy hens, Pepe Saya butter, Little Big Dairy milk, our soft sourdough and of course, a paper bag (or three) full of pastries


Let the kids take care of the scrambled eggs while you sneak in a cinnamon bun or two for yourself. We won’t tell.

2. Feed the Whole Family with Ease

If Mum’s the one who normally plays host, give her the day off. Our pastry catering packs are ready to serve and satisfy, and if you've got a crowd to feed a sea salt and rosemary focaccia slab never goes astray!


Our fresh or frozen pastizzis are a crowd favourite. Crunchy pastry and delicious fillings (yes, including that creamy ricotta and parmesan one everyone fights over), they make a perfect low-fuss lunch or afternoon nibble. Add a fresh salad and maybe a cheeky glass of wine, and you’ve got yourself a celebration.

3. Mum Deserves Cake (And You Do Too)

Our brand new range of cake designs has landed, they're unapologetically fabulous and perfect for Mother’s Day.

We’re talking delicate piped buttercream, soft buttery layers, edible flowers, pastel ribbons and even in the shape of a heart – all available to order online. Whether Mum likes it elegant, rustic, romantic or playful, we can bake baked something just for her.


Need a showstopper? Go for “Bow Down” – our prettiest yet. Need something sweet and simple? “Piped Dreams” has you covered.


Order ahead and collect from on the day or before (our cakes last well in the fridge for up to a week). We recommend adding a buttercream inscription to tell Mum how much you love her. Just saying.

4. Gift Ideas, the Burnt Honey Way

If you’re stuck for what to get the mum who says she doesn’t need anything, we’ve got a few ideas that don’t involve a panic trip to the chemist.

Gift Cards

Let her pick her favourite treats next time she visits. Or, let’s be honest, spend it all on cinnamon buns. You do you, Mum.

Crumbs and Corks: Cake + Wine Tasting Night

Our new event series with Upstairs Wines is perfect for the mum who loves a little indulgence. You’ll get matched cakes and wines, a cozy vibe, and the kind of relaxed elegance she deserves.


Gift her a ticket (and one for yourself too, of course) and make a night of it.

Burnt Honey Bakery Biscuits and Treats

Our biscuits and treats a known across the coast as the best buttery gift a person can give a loved one! From crisp Greek shortbread biscuits - aka Kourabiedes, to our moreish and crunchy Salted Honey Popcorn, give Mum something she can savour - or share!

The most luxurious spa experience on the Coast, at Kondou, Kincumber

A spa experience at Kondou is like entering a parallel universe, once you make you way behind the curtains you might as well be a million miles away as the world disappears and your mind and body are treated to the most divinely relaxing experience you can possibly imagine. If you've got the budget to spoil Mum supremely, a treatment at Kondou is a superior Mother's Day gift.
