📍 Café Demel
Cafe Demel (Cafe Demel) was founded in 1786 and became a royal dessert shop in 1857, providing pastries for the Hofburg Imperial Palace (Hofburg). The sign “DEMEL” has a double eagle emblem from the former Habsburg dynasty, and “K.U.K. Hofzuckerbäcker” is written on the bottom, representing the pride of the supplier responsible for the royal family's food and drink in the past. Café Demer is also the birthplace of the world-famous Sacher cake and emperor cake!
The interior environment is relatively dark, but you can also see that its decoration is understated and luxurious. Here, in addition to freshly baked pastries, you can also see several staff making crepes!
We ordered three types of chocolate first. A cup of iced cocoa (€7.3), a cup of hot cocoa (€6.9), and a cup of hot cocoa with whipped cream (€7.8). After my friend removed the ice cubes from the iced cocoa, we discovered that in order to maintain the richness of iced cocoa, they put chocolate with a higher concentration than hot cocoa in the store. I personally prefer the version without fresh cream, so I can enjoy the rich cocoa flavor even more.
In addition to that, another friend of ours also ordered a cup of Viennese coffee. The fresh cream was mixed with concentrated coffee. The sweet cream neutralized the bitterness of the coffee, and at the same time, it was richer than a regular latte!
If you come here, you definitely have to try this famous Sach cake! Compared to a weekday chocolate cake, it's a bit less sweet, and there are different layers when topped with fresh cream.
We also ordered a Raspberry Yoghurt Cake (Raspberry Yoghurt Cake) recommended by the clerk. Although I'm not a fan of strawberry desserts, my friends also really liked it. The slightly sour berries neutralize the sweetness of the cake, and the crunchiness of the bottom layer is very layered.
We then went to the gift shop in the store to check out, which is also one of the store's management strategies. However, the chocolate souvenirs in the store are quite expensive, and not all of them are produced in-house.
Although we didn't buy anything in the store, in addition to the products, there were also quite a few paintings and ornaments worth watching — such as this cake statue.
Finally, behind the goat chocolate statue, you can see a cake workshop with marble walls!
