It is on a small share of cafes (0.2% in the last 90 days) and holding steady.
Fewer than 5 Brisbane cafes have it, or the first cafe post or review we have is under 120 days old, or creators are posting it before any cafe has it. It also covers anything on a small share of cafes that is holding steady.
The stages run Emerging, Rising, Peaking, Mainstream, Fading. A trend can skip a stage or move back.

Of the cafes in Brisbane that posted anything that month, how many posted canele, per 1,000 of them.
It is a share, not a count, so it does not grow just because we follow more cafes. It only grows when more of the cafes we follow take it up.
The month in progress shows here once it is complete, so a part month never reads as a drop. A month with too few cafes posting is left out.

Each bar is the Brisbane cafes with a post or customer review of it that month; Nov 2026 is not over yet, so its bar is so far.
2 suburbs are known only from a menu, which we can't date, so they count in the last month.
Canele is on 2 Brisbane cafe menus and has been posted by cafes in 5 Brisbane suburbs.
A small fluted cake with a dark caramelised crust and a soft custard middle, flavoured with vanilla and rum. In all our data to 14 Nov 2026, The Froth has seen it at 5 Brisbane cafes across 5 suburbs, in posts, customer reviews and menus. The 4 in "Where to get one" are the cafes with it on their current menu or in a cafe or creator post.
It is on 2 Brisbane cafe menus right now, including Cafe Green Bean in Wynnum and C'est Du Gateau Bakery in South Brisbane. 2 more cafes have posted it, though it is not on their current menu. The "Where to get one" list on this page has every one, with the price where the menu gives one, links to the menu or post, and directions. Menus change, so check with the cafe before you go.
It is early days. The Froth rates canele as Emerging as of 14 Nov 2026: it is on a small share of cafes (0.2% in the last 90 days) and holding steady. In the 90 days to 14 Nov 2026, 0.2% of the Brisbane cafes we see well (an Instagram post or a current menu in that time) had it. Brisbane searches for it were down 2% in Aug to Oct 2026 compared with Aug to Oct 2025.
It is on a bigger share of Melbourne cafes: 1.1% against Brisbane's 0.2%, over the last 90 days.
There were 620 searches for canele in Brisbane in Oct 2026, with all its names added up. Across the 23 months we have, from Dec 2024 to Oct 2026, it ranged from 490 searches (Jan 2026) to 930 (Jul 2025). These are monthly estimates of search demand in Brisbane.
The earliest Brisbane cafe post or customer review about canele that The Froth has is from 21 Apr 2026. We only see what we collect, so that is when we first saw it, not when it started: it may have been sold earlier, here or elsewhere.
A typical canelés, drawn from Brisbane cafes' own posts, is built from the top down with canelés (a vanilla and rum batter baked in fluted moulds until the crust caramelises; custardy inside). Each cafe makes its own version, so this is a typical plate, not one cafe's recipe.
A cafe counts for canele from the first public post or customer review we found about it, the cafe's own post or a customer's, and while it is on the cafe's current menu. Shares are of the cafes we see well: those with an Instagram post or a current menu in the same 90 days, a chain counting once. A change compares the same cafes in the last 90 days with the 90 before, only among cafes we have followed through both, so newly added cafes never look like growth. The 90 days end on the latest day with cafe posts or reviews (14 Nov 2026), not today. Searches are monthly search demand in Brisbane with all of a trend's names added up. Captions stay private; we only link to public posts. The full method is on our "How we track cafe trends" page.
