Golden Loukoumades and Custom Toppings at Lukumama

Lukumama delivers light, cloud-like Greek doughnuts with generous customisable toppings, making their half-and-half Snickers and Cherry Ripe tray an absolute treat.

Watching staff behind the counter pour rich chocolate syrup and scatter toppings over a fresh container of Greek doughnuts is an inviting way to start a Melbourne dessert run. At Lukumama, these warm golden balls arrive freshly dressed and ready to eat with a wooden pick. Spearing one gives you that immediate contrast of a soft dough ball with a center like a light cloud that melts in your mouth.

Located on Kingsway in Glen Waverley, this dedicated dessert venue takes traditional Greek loukoumades and lets you pick the toppings you like. You can stick with a single classic style or split your tray down the middle to sample different sweet combinations together.

THE QUICK ANSWER

Is Lukumama worth adding to your itinerary?

The main appeal lies in how these airy dough clouds maintain their light texture beneath heavy layers of syrup, nuts, and chocolate. I had never tasted anything quite like this particular mix of hot, delicate dough and rich topping combinations.

  • Loukoumades regular tray half Cherry Ripe and half Snickers

A Split Tray of Classic Candy Flavours

We ordered a half-and-half tray featuring two distinct combinations inspired by iconic chocolate bars: Snickers and Cherry Ripe. Getting a split tray means you do not have to settle on just one sweet profile, which comes in handy when facing down a long menu of options.

The Snickers side comes generously coated in smooth milk chocolate, finely crushed peanuts, and a caramel drizzle. Right beside it, the Cherry Ripe half transitions to dark chocolate, topped with a bright cherry drizzle and a scattering of coconut flakes over the golden loukoumades.

Soft Clouds and Rich Toppings

The main appeal lies in how these airy dough clouds maintain their light texture beneath heavy layers of syrup, nuts, and chocolate. I had never tasted anything quite like this particular mix of hot, delicate dough and rich topping combinations.

Looking beyond our half-and-half tray, the overhead menu board lists a wider selection of loukoumades toppings along with cheesecake on a stick. If you are planning a Kingsway dessert outing, ordering a split tray is easily the most rewarding way to experience what Lukumama brings to Glen Waverley.
