Cream at Sassafras is a sensational Gourmet Food Shop in Sassafras, right in the heart of the beautiful Dandenong’s – but there’s so much more to this little gem. Treat yourself and discover. Mark and Leenah Johnston started this shop in 2009 after too many experiences with food that just lacked that special “zing”. Too much life without passion. Too many people who just didn’t know how to deliver those extra special moments of service that come ‘from-the-heart’. It’s so nice to feel ‘tinglingly special’!!
