To start off, the service was amazing and sweets wise the standout for me was 100% the apricot sorbet. It was absolutely divine, so smooth. The honey himself ordered the pistachio creme sandwich and the small egg tart (similar to nata) and enjoyed them both quite a bit. The seating was comfortable, plentiful, and this was probably our favorite food spot in Zurich. All in all, definitely a must-eat in Zurich if you're visiting.

Zürich, Switzerland…read more Of course, Sprüngli is another must stop visit when you're in Zürich besides the Ladërach. The location I went to is inside the train station. It's small but can comfortably hold a few people. There are plenty of displays to choose from. I wanted to buy some of their famous Luxemburgerli macarons but had a hard time deciding, so I asked the employee for the best sellers. She suggested three, and I went with those. She also mentioned they last 3-4 days and should be refrigerated immediately. It was a little treat for my daughter, and she absolutely loved them. It survived the 12hr flight . Perfect spot to pick up something special for yourself or to take home as a gift!

Yelp Review 2026 #47:…read more Cafe & Conditorei 1842 is "Zürich's oldest cafe". This place is a conditorei (has a sit down area to enjoy pastries and sweet baked treats) and not a confiserie (take away truffles and candies). They claim to have the best hot chocolate and I would have to disagree. They do have good desserts to pair with their hot chocolate. The building its in has been around since 1824. The bakery opened in 1874 but the cafe didn't actually open until March 2019 so, the name is misleading. They have indoor seating and also patio seating in front or in the back. They have smoothies, milkshakes, matcha, cold brew options, sparkling wine options, ice cream, patisserie items, and brunch food. You have 6 options for their hot (or cold) non-alcoholic chocolate: classic, with marshmallows, with whipped cream, with chili flakes, with a shot of fresh ginger, with a shot of espresso; or 4 alcoholic hot (or cold) chocolate options: rum, amaretto, Bailey's or Grand Marnier. Passion Fruit Panna Cotta: Nice balance of bitter dark chocolate and tart Passionfruit. The panna cotta was creamy and soft. Dark chocolate holding everything together. I love Passionfruit and chocolate combo. 4.5/5 Chocolate Mousse: You can't go wrong with anything chocolate in Switzerland. This has white chocolate, milk chocolate and dark chocolate, and cocoa nibs at the bottom. Great creamy texture. Pillowy like marshmallow. 4/5 The Classic Hot Chocolate with Whipped Cream: Underwhelming. I've had better hot chocolate somewhere else in Zürich. It's a step up from Swiss Miss. 2.5/5 The Classic Cold Chocolate with Whipped Cream: The same as what was mentioned above but the cold version which is lukewarm. 2.5/5 Service was good though.

Let me be clear: I am not a vegan and I will never be a vegan because I love eating meat... so to…read moreall the vegan police on the internet: shoot me, nevertheless I absolutely adore LoLa's Kitchen and prefer their cakes above many traditional cake shops. Even though the shop is literally behind my corner, I only discovered them when they started delivery via UberEats. Their toasts on the app are extremely delicious, I've tried both the Avo & hummus and the Falafel Appel one. Except for being filling and yummy they are also absolutely beautiful. They really look like the picture you see on the app, unlike most delivery foods. After trying them that way, I was interested enough to go and give them a visit and try their delicious cakes. I discovered that the shop has the friendliest owner who is happy to give you more info about her fantastic cakes. But most importantly, all the cakes I tried up till now were simply scrumptious. Honestly,I cannot remember when I last enjoyed a piece of cake this much and the fact that it is vegan and refined sugar free is nothing but a plus! Highly recommended!

A hidden gem that you have to look for, but once you've found it... they make the best macarons in…read moreZurich - enough said. Eric Baumann was making macarons before they were in, before Ladurée was in Zürich and Sprüngli released their new Deluxe Luxemburgerli. He's one of only three Swiss members of the elite confiseur guild "Relais Desserts" and macarons are simple a part of his repertoire. My favourite macaron is the chocolate macaron, made with a Grand Cru couverture from Felchlin (Trinitario fine flavour cocoa beans from Madagascar, 64%). But the vanilla macaron also really impressed me: Creamy, cool, soft vanilla butter cream - wonderful! The flavours are classic, but there also some seasonal variations. Macarons aren't his only noteworthy product. His assortment of patisserie is on the same level as Vollenweider and Honold. His bread is also very popular. All pralines are made with the finest Grand Cru couverture. The gianduja hearts, piped ganache coated in cocoa powder and sabayon pralines are particular favourites of mine! Just one slight criticism: Every now and then (especially towards the end of the day) the service isn't quite as knowledge or friendly as Mrs. Baumann or Mr. Berchtold. Otherwise their service and product knowledge is excellent. For more reviews and photo reports, please visit: http://www.dessertblog.ch

It's the best bakery in Zurich without the snooty cliental waiting in a long line. I was sent here by the 'Ass Bar' after a long conversation over sweets.

My husband ordered an americano coffee and I got the cinnamon latte which was delicious. The bakery is decorated nicely and they have plenty to choose from.

Yelp Review 2023 #22:…read more Läderach is one of my favorite chocolatiers in the whole world. I eat chocolate everyday, and I travel the world sampling chocolates. I've been to Belgium which some say has the best chocolate. I've been to France, Italy, UK, Germany, Finland, and Ecuador - they do have some good chocolate. But I will always want Swiss chocolate. There are three chocolatiers in Switzerland that I love. I like Läderach because they don't overcomplicate their combinations. And they give you free samples. You can buy boxes of chocolates, truffles by the bag, chocolate slabs by the gram. My favorites are the chocolate with whole hazelnut slabs, and chocolate cornflake slabs. They have a nice selection of chocolate + hazelnut so I get a box of those in different varieties. This particular location is at the Central Station which is convenient. There is another Läderach outside Central Station. Whichever location you go to, you can expect the same great experience and some of the finest chocolates that will ever touch your mouth.

Yes, chocolate in Switzerland. There are so many options, and many of them are very good,…read moreespecially if you like milk chocolate. This place has some excellent dark and white chocolate in addition to the traditional milk. You can get a huge variety of truffles, or they have slabs of chocolate with various inclusions like candied oranges, blackberry, roasted hazelnuts or almonds, or even some more exotic varieties with things like pink peppercorns or pistachios. The people at Läderach pride themselves on FRESHNESS, so I wouldn't recommend overbuying. Not that it was much of a problem for us: the first bag was gone within a day, so we had to plan a return trip before we left the country and quadrupled our "pilot" purchase. If you need to spend those extra CHF before you leave out, there are worse things to spend it on... just be sure to stay under the duty free limit :D
