This is Austria: Cafe Sacher

Beautifully served on a silver tray. Classy.

Today at home with Sofia we start a new label called "This is Austria", where I show you Austria bit by bit. Let us start today with the sweet side of Austria.

For more than ten years ago Innsbruck got its own Cafe Sacher. A touch of Vienna on the other side of Austria. Located in the old town, next to Hofburg. Everyone knows the world famous chocolate cake which you can also buy as a gift or as "take away" in wooden boxes in different sizes (and prices!). Coffee is good. Sacher cake, well it´s excellent. Other pastry like Topfenstrudel or Apfelstrudel I wouldn´t recommend. Drinks are also served and meals during lunch time.

Celebrities from ancient times.
The typical Sacher colour, wine red.
Always with Schlagobers, bitte!

  1. Sacher cake is one of my absolute favorite desserts! I have been to Austria several times, but so far not been able to visit a Cafe Sacher. Will definitely do that in the future. In the mean while a cake in a lovely wooden box would be a nice surprise ...!
