Yes, we are back!!! Welcome to the 2021 Bake!

Last year we were ready with a plan - perfectly cooked biscuits flying out the door to be delivered wherever we can.

Whilst unfortunately they didn't get a chance to take off in 2020, our biscuits have proven to be intrepid travellers over the years. With the green light for go they are sure to be all around Hobart and beyond.

We invite you to join us as we bake up a storm for 10 days. As always, the funds raised will assist the continued operation of our programmes and facilities.


And of course we wouldn't be able to do this without our many supporters - from the businesses and organisations selling the biscuits for us, suppliers, volunteers; and of course all our loyal customers who return year after year to buy our biscuits (we hope you are enjoying some as you check out our blog!) - a big thank you to all of you.

If you would like a basket of biscuits for your business to sell, please email us at
auroradisability@auroradisability.org.au or call us on 6273 0916.
