    When early in the morning a delicate waft of chocolate and pastry pervades through the house then the confectioners at the Kohl-markt have started their working day. In order to produce the freshest of goods at the highest level of quality the bakery of the K.u.K. (Imperial and Royal) Court Confectionary Bakery Demel was relocated back to the site at the Kohlmarkt.

    On several floors the confectioners produce the typical Demel specialities as they have been doing for over 200 years; these include cream cakes, the finest tea scones and cakes as well as home-made confectionary, all precisely and skilfully hand-made. All products are made from specially chosen and natural ingredients.

    WHERE TO START!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHH

    Treat yourself to pastries bar none at Demel in the heart of the inner city. And if you don't want to pay their exorbitant prices, at least walk by as they always dress their windows with beautiful marzipan sculptures. This one just blew me away, for at the time, they were renovating the outside of the building. In Canada you may see a sign by a building being renovated telling you curtly to walk on the other side of the road, but here... They apologise for the inconvenience of the renovations in the form of an ornate marzipan sculpture in the window!!

  • The most refined retreat for cake-lovers in the city. Experience the epitome of politeness and delights that imperial guests once enjoyed. This was the other place my friend recommended.

    Demel: Definitely Demels. Okay, so...

  • Definitely Demels. Okay, so it may be a bit of a tourist trap, but the lunches were superb, and the Sacher torte was better than Sacher's in my opinion. As you probably already know (and will quickly discover on a trip to Vienna), there is a debate between the two restaurants about which one invented Sacher Torte. Despite Demels' claims, the cake is immortalized with the name of its rivals. Considering though, that the exquisite combination of chocolate and orange must have been recognized long before either of the two restaurants were opened, both have equal rights to the claim.

    In 1786 confectionary assistant, Ludwig Dehne settled in Vienna. He started selling frozen goods then extended to candy and jam filled doughnuts. Demel is now an Austrian institution with cafes in Vienna and Salzburg, there is also a branch in New York. The Demel is a very smart cafe and the food delicious.

    Demel is the world famous cafe in the heart of Vienna where you can spend your time piling on the pounds (or kg, if you are metric) by stuffing your face with delicious Austria cakes, tarts etc

    It's worth going !!!!!

    Works in Progress in
    Demel's Pastry Kitchen
    by robin_h1006
    My wife is a Pastry Chef in Baltimore, so we had no other option but to visit Demel's while in Vienna. The Downstairs was packed so we were ushered upstairs. Upstairs we were sat in a corner and rather than giving a pastry menu we were told to serve ourself from the pastry buffet in the next room. The server took our drink order and disappeared for 15 minutes. I was not pleased with the overall experience and for the prices I did not feel that I should be serving myself from the buffet. Again I tried the Sacher Torte and thought it was extremely dry and the worst I tried in Vienna. We both enjoyed the gift shop downstairs and I bought what had to be the worlds most expensive and smallest chocolate bar, but hey, what are vacations for.

    I enjoyed seeing the works in progress in the back.
