Mozart

If the Sachertorte catches your eye, ordering it with whipped cream is a characteristically Mozart choice. Some visitors describe it as a rare place to enjoy Sachertorte with its traditional icing; others have settled in with coffee and cake. For a treat to take home, the large pudding is another standout. Its firm texture has won over fans of set custard, while some find the separately served caramel sauce slightly bitter. Pour it over the generous portion as you eat.

Other cake options include strawberry shortcake, cream puffs and the aptly named Angel’s Fluffy Cheesecake. Some customers choose the shortcake or pudding, while others say the cream puffs make a welcome gift. It’s a tempting selection for an afternoon treat or something to bring along.

For something to have alongside cake, or a baked sweet that keeps, look out for amagashoku and the other baked goods. One visitor described the amagashoku as lightly crisp on the outside and like a madeleine within, and recommended it with Japanese tea. Customers who took home raisin sandwiches, florentines and dacquoise enjoyed the contrasts: buttercream between sablés, almonds and cookie coated in caramel, and meringue layers filled with hazelnut and vanilla cream. Takeaway is available. The shop is open daily from 10:00 to 22:00.
