It is early days. The Froth rates canele as Emerging as of 14 Nov 2026: it is on a small share of cafes (0.3% in the last 90 days) and holding steady. In the 90 days to 14 Nov 2026, 0.3% of the Perth cafes we see well (a current menu in that time) had it. Among the 1,049 cafes we have followed through both periods, none of the same cafes had it, against 1 in the 90 days before. Perth searches for it were up 20% in Aug to Oct 2026 compared with Aug to Oct 2025.
It is on a bigger share of Melbourne cafes: 1.1% against Perth's 0.3%, over the last 90 days.
There were 400 searches for canele in Perth in Oct 2026, with all its names added up. Across the 23 months we have, from Dec 2024 to Oct 2026, it ranged from 230 searches (Feb 2025) to 440 (Apr 2026). These are monthly estimates of search demand in Perth.
The earliest Perth customer review about canele that The Froth has is from 21 Nov 2024. 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 Perth cafes' menus and reviews, 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 Google review we found that mentions it, and while it is on the cafe's current menu. Shares are of the cafes we see well: those with 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 new reviews or menus (14 Nov 2026), not today. Searches are monthly search demand in Perth with all of a trend's names added up.
