About us

Our vision is clear. Do one thing (make tarts) and do it well.

Co-founders Gareth Whitton and Catherine Way started Tarts Anon as a side-hustle, determined only to pass the time during Melbourne’s harsh COVID-19 lockdown of 2020. Gareth, a fine dining pastry chef of 18 years+ experience, was making tarts at home when word of his world-class tarts got out within the local neighbourhood. Within weeks, Tarts Anon was the cult lockdown at-home bakery on everyone’s lips. It wasn’t too long, though, before the concept outgrew the home kitchen, and with a few twists and turns, Tarts Anon founded its flagship location in Cremorne, Victoria in September 2021.

Tarts Anon is what happens when the world class, ex-head pastry chef of Dinner By Heston and guru of all things pastry makes some tarts for his neighbours during one of the world’s harshest COVID-19 lockdowns.
