Ditters

Step into the delicious world of Ditters, an iconic South Australian brand that has been delighting taste buds since 1918. After more than a decade away from the city centre, Ditters has triumphantly returned to the heart of Adelaide, reopening in the very same Adelaide Arcade store they occupied 40 years ago.

Famous for their freshly roasted nuts, glacé and dried fruits, and the much-loved Ditters Gourmet Cake, Ditters offers a nostalgic experience with every bite. Crafted from time-honoured recipes – including their signature cake packed with fruits and nuts and just a hint of batter – Ditters products are made to be shared, gifted and savoured.

This new chapter has been made possible through support from Renew Adelaide, bringing the rich aroma of roasted nuts back to the Arcade just in time for its 140th anniversary celebrations.

Inside the store, you’ll find:

  • A full range of Ditters’ premium products – from classic macadamias and cashews to beautiful gift boxes.
  • A nod to history – including a portrait of founder Otto Ditter and a special tribute wall.
  • Friendly service from the Ditters family themselves – with Esther Johnson managing the shop and sharing their story with a personal touch.

Whether you’re a long-time fan or discovering Ditters for the first time, this is your new go-to for high-quality, locally made treats
