338° was launched in 2024 by Tash Lindsay-Barker.
From a family of Melbourne bakers, creating confectionery has been Tash’s life-long passion.
As a 10 year old she supplied the local coffee shop with her handmade Lemon Tarts and as a Graduate Accountant she created Che Buono after hours, struck by the changing properties of sugar as it caramelised.
For 20 years this fascination was confined to being a side-project while she worked in the creative industries in London and Singapore.
Since 2022, it has been her primary focus. Discovering the sheer breadth and diversity of sugars each with its unique properties and potential was the genesis of 338°.
After two years of constant innovation Tash has developed her initial range of 10 unique caramel flavours in the 338° Test Kitchen in St Kilda, Melbourne.
Three off-the-shelf edits and ten single flavour edits were released in November 2024, with a number of bold new products already in the pipeline for 2025.
