How It All Started
Our story began in 1996, where we had our very first event featuring a unique dish: 14 wild brown trout, cold-smoked by us and served with fresh, creek-harvested watercress and caper mayo.
In 2007, Spade to Blade merged with Daylesford Catering, bringing the Swiss-Italian culinary talents of Jt Morganti to our team. This fusion of expertise allowed us to offer a wider range of dishes for our clients.
Our Core Values
We partner with local, like-minded farmers who share our commitment to sustainable practices. This ensures the freshest, seasonal ingredients reach your plate with minimal intervention. Not only does this reduce our environmental impact, but it also allows the natural flavours to shine through, creating a truly authentic culinary experience.

"Gary and his team provided a sumptuous feast for our largish family gathering in Daylesford. The menu provided suited all tastes, was fresh, delicious and generous. Gary was able to deliver the food to our accommodation, presented beautifully, with no fuss or bother. I cannot recommend Spade to Blade highly enough."

"Thank you so much for the wonderful food you nourished us with on my women’s retreat! The meals were beautiful, and such special care and attention was given to each dish, you couldn’t have wiped the smiles off our faces when we unpacked at each mealtime! The delivery service with the amazing hot boxes worked perfectly, and chatting to the lovely staff that did the deliveries just made me feel beyond grateful that I came across your business. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I so look forward to being a returning customer for my next Daylesford retreat."

Adaptable to changes and most importantly delicious food in generous servings! We hired this company to assist us with Mum’s Birthday high tea and everyone left raving! Convenient drop off of everything ready to go to our accommodation in Daylesford made it all less stressful!"
