Known forhistoricBaumkuchentraditionalTiergarten
Founded in 1852, Café Buchwald is one of Berlin's oldest and most cherished confectioneries, famous above all for its Baumkuchen — the layered ring cake that has been made here for generations. The old-fashioned, unpretentious shop near the Tiergarten feels like a genuine time capsule of Berlin baking tradition. You can buy whole cakes to take away or enjoy a slice with coffee on the spot. It's a must for anyone serious about Berlin's culinary heritage.
