Although we cannot change the world, we are proud of all the small decisions that we make on the daily – because it is all the small decisions that really matter.
We would love for you to know why My Brownie Box is seriously different.
Why Seriously Different?
Handmade Products
Family Owned Business
From our humble beginnings to where we stand today, My Brownie Box has grown into more than just a business — it’s an extension of our family, shaped by our values, our passion, and the care behind every decision we make.
Every person who connects with us plays a meaningful role in our journey, from our loyal customers to our trusted suppliers, and all those who have cheered us on along the way.
Each moment — big or small — has left its mark, helping us become who we are today.
Handmade Products
Every brownie we bake is handmade from scratch using traditional methods and real ingredients. Free from artificial flavours and preservatives, each batch is crafted in small quantities to ensure exceptional quality and a personal touch.
But brownies aren’t the only thing we take seriously. Many of the components that go into them are made entirely in-house including:
- Organic vanilla marshmallows
- Salted caramel
- Peanut butter
- Chocolate hazelnut spread
- Signature hazelnut praline
We even freshly roast our nuts and temper our chocolate by hand to deliver an authentic, flavourful experience from start to finish.
There’s a saying that brownies are easy to make but hard to perfect — and for us, it has it has been quite the journey. What is deemed a simple “one-bowl recipe” has taken over five years to refine and bring from our kitchen into your home.
Our brownies embody the time, dedication, and craftsmanship we value so deeply and we are so proud to bring you something seriously different.
Ethical Brownies
Ethical brownies are more than a delicious dessert — they embody a growing movement in which every ingredient reflects a commitment to fairness, sustainability, animal welfare, and community well-being.
- Our brownies are made with certified fair-trade cocoa and chocolate, ensuring that farmers receive fair wages and work in safe, supportive conditions.
- We use locally sourced eggs to help reduce our environmental footprint and choose organic ingredients to promote responsible, regenerative agriculture.
By choosing our baked ethical brownies, consumers transform a simple treat into an act of intentional kindness, aligning personal enjoyment with a broader vision of justice, sustainability, and respect for the people and ecosystems behind every bite.
Certified Fair-trade Ingredients
Human welfare and human rights are something we care deeply about and prioritise on the daily. Many commercial baking ingredients and the large companies behind them often operate at the expense of human welfare – with workers receiving pay fair below a living wage as well as working in unsafe or exploitative conditions.
Sadly, only 10% of the world’s cocoa is fair-trade which means a staggering 90% is still traded without protection!
Certified fair-trade agreements set standards and as a result:
- Workers have fair-wages
- Safe workplaces
- Prohibition of forced or child labour
- Producers are treated with dignity and respect
- Empowers small farmers and workers by giving them stable incomes and a stronger voice in the global market.
- Break cycles of poverty that often affect marginalised communities and over time
- Strengthens community resilience, preserves cultural traditions and fosters long-term economic independence.
We are proud to be a part of the 10% who use Certified Fair-trade ingredients - knowing that if we do our part with the choices we make, we are saying yes to a world we want to be a part of for generations to come. Such a small decision can really make such a large impact!
Certified Organic Ingredients
We champion certified organic ingredients where we can.
Not only does organic taste better, it promotes the humane treatment of animals and focuses solely on the integrity of the product and the land it is farmed on, aiming to preserve soil health and the environment.
Every single brownie we bake is crafted using as a minimum:
- Certified organic butter
- Certified organic chocolate
- Certified organic cocoa
- Certified organic sugar
All our ingredient are free form harmful chemicals and preservatives, we would like to set the benchmark for how all baked goods should be. Naturally delicious.
Supporting Local Business
All our suppliers are Australian owned and operated and we love knowing this! We work with brilliant, independent growers and makers and have searched high and low to find producers who share the same ethos.
Choosing local means:
- Fresher ingredients,
- Smaller environmental footprints
- Building real connections with the people who help bring our brownies to life.

We could not do what we do without the help of the community we serve as well as our suppliers that work tirelessly behind the scenes to make what we do possible.
They say home is where the heart is, and our heart will always be Brisbane!
Sustainability Plan
Every year, we look at how we can tread more lightly on this earth and implement these practices into our everyday life.
We take pride in sourcing our ingredients locally and in bulk to minimise our carbon footprint whilst supporting our local community.
