Luckily I live in Klagenfurt. It\u2019s a city where the sweet life is possible. Even more than that. A walk round the city has many addresses and caf\u00e9s where you can bump into cream-filled gateaux or chocolate cake, or stumble upon rum-filled petits fours and cream-filled pastries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are a handful of traditional confectioners who put their whole heart into sweetening their guests\u2019 lives with cakes and desserts, no matter whether they are opulent gateau creations or wonderful cakes baked to Grandma\u2019s recipe. No matter whether you enjoy them at a caf\u00e9 table in the confectioner\u2019s shop, or take them home nicely wrapped up in a cardboard box. Klagenfurt is sweet! So here are my personal favourites when it comes to \u201ccoffee and cake\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Konditorei Cafe Fahrnberger<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This is the traditional Klagenfurt confectioner\u2019s par excellence, with three locations in the city area. The one that covers the largest areas is the parent store on St. Veiter Stra\u00dfe, then there is also a cosy but tiny branch on Benediktinerplatz. And my personal favourite Fahrnberger is on Luegerstra\u00dfe near the Steinerne Br\u00fccke bridge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A bright, cosy place with sinfully good home-made pastries and proper coffee.<\/strong> The service is always friendly and fast, and the magazine selection is well-curated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can meet up at Caf\u00e9 Fahrnberger for a chat over a cappuccino and damson cake. Or a good read of the newspaper over a wonderful cup of Darjeeling and a cake flavoured with rum. And for me the homemade ice cream<\/strong> is the best in the whole of Klagenfurt. This is where I genuinely became addicted to affogato al caff\u00e8.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the weekend, the Fahrnberger is heavily frequented by people stocking up on gateaux and cakes for their afternoon coffee at home. And if you happen to need a gateau as a gift for a special occasion: the Fahrnberger makes it. The children\u2019s birthday cakes are especially colourful and creative!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Konditorei Hutter<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I have no idea why it is, but Konditorei Hutter in the middle of Alter Platz has become somewhat of a hideaway for everyone needing a break from shopping. The caf\u00e9 extends generously backwards into the building, past the well-filled dessert display case at the entrance. Which means there is nearly always a free table at Hutter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And Hutter is always a good choice if you fancy homemade gateaux, cakes and slices<\/strong> or hand-made chocolates<\/strong>. The \u201cOriginal Klagenfurter Lindwurmkugeln\u201d that are only available here are the perfect little idea for birthday children who love chocolate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I also absolutely want to mention the appetising selection of freshly filled rolls. It is often the case after coffee and cake that you simply have to have a prosecco with some savoury nibbles. Because it is easy to chat longer than you planned among these cosy red settees and the speedy service. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Confectionery products at the Benediktinermarkt \u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you are looking for succulent cakes and sweet cream fillings, you can stumble from one good address to another among the market restaurants at the Benediktinermarkt. My personal tour for sweet stuff looks like this, for instance:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By the way, the market days at the Benediktinermarkt<\/a> (Thursday and Saturday mornings) are always a good occasion for finding undreamt-of treasures. What the women stallholders and farmers produce there almost by the way is incredible. Cakes, strudels and gateaux like Grandma used to make! I recommend walking around and sampling them, because everyone is sure to find their favourite cake or pastry there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Caf\u00e9 Konditorei Fahrnberger am Benediktinermarkt<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Firstly a short detour to the Fahrnberger at the Benediktinermarkt that has already been mentioned, with a particular recommendation: the \u201cKardinalschnitte<\/a>\u201d. You seldom come across anything as appetising and sumptuous in this earthly life!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
