Our Story

About Sugar Rush Events

A lolly shop that learned to travel

We are a small, family-run team based at our Dayboro shopfront, styling luxury dessert bars, gelato carts and lolly buffets for celebrations across Brisbane, Moreton Bay and the Sunshine Coast. Every table is designed for one event, in one colour palette, and set up by the same people who packed it.

How we got here

From a village lolly shop to styled celebrations

The shop

A lolly shop in Dayboro

Sugar Rush began as a bricks-and-mortar lolly shop at 38 Williams St, Dayboro — floor-to-ceiling jars, pick-and-mix walls and a steady stream of locals after something sweet. The shop is still open daily, 9am to 4pm, and it's where every flavour and colour decision gets tested first.

The tables

From counter to celebration

Customers kept asking whether we could bring the shop to their wedding, birthday or work function. The first styled sweet table went out with apothecary jars borrowed from the shelves, and the events side of Sugar Rush grew from there.

Today

A travelling dessert studio

We now style luxury dessert bars, gelato carts, lolly buffets, grazing sweet platters and bespoke favours across Brisbane, Moreton Bay and the Sunshine Coast — plus corporate gifting and private in-store tasting experiences.

What we stand for

Six things we never compromise on

  • Everything is hand-styled on site — nothing arrives pre-packed in a plastic tray
  • One colour palette per event, matched to your invitation, venue or brand
  • Premium confectionery and award-winning Maleny Gelato, never generic bulk mixes
  • Full ingredient and allergen information supplied for every booking
  • Delivery, styling and pack-down included, so nobody in your party is on clean-up duty
  • A single local team across dessert bars, gelato, lolly buffets and favours
Working with us

How a Sugar Rush booking runs

01

Tell us about the day

Send through your date, venue, guest count and colour palette. We'll come back with a tailored quote, usually within 1–2 business days.

02

Design & tasting

We build a sweet selection around your theme. Book a private in-store tasting from $35 per person — redeemable against your booking if you go ahead.

03

Locked in

A 30% deposit secures your date. From there we handle sourcing, colour-matching, signage and logistics while you get on with the rest of the planning.

04

Styled on the day

We arrive 60–90 minutes before service, style everything in place, and return to pack down. You get the photos; we take the empty jars home.
