    Chocolate-covered baumkuchen
    Hiromi I.

    This is the home of original baumkuchen (tree cake). I grew up eating baumkuchen and I was so excited to try the original baumkuchen here! The place was easy to find, just few minutes walk from the train station. The bakery has dine-in section and had four different types of baumkuchen on the menu. On the day I went (mid-afternoon), there were only two types left so I ordered both! They were both chocolate-covered but not too sweet. They had a nice firm texture. They were perfect with my Darjeeling tea!

    Famous Baumkuchen, with coffee and gelato!

    I'm usually hesitant about visiting these type of places that are "the oldest cafes, etc" as they tend to be overhyped. However, I found this cafe exceeded my expectations with yummy pastries, cheap coffee, and excellent service (rare in Berlin)!

    Bad photo, but amazing cake and service! I stuffed my suitcase

    Having travelled all the way from San Francisco, held aloft by tales of baumkuchen, we were not disappointed. A little way out of the city, there rests an amazing bakery full of darling traditionalists. The cute grandmas sipping tea, coupled with the passionate and welcoming staff make the whole experience just adorable. We even got the chance to meet the grand daughter of the founder, who told us that for more than 160 years they have been making this delicious cake in the same way! I mean, how can you possibly not love a place where even the bathroom smells like sugar and cinnamon? If you are ever in Berlin, go out of your way for the sweetest of afternoon treats.

    Celebrating 160 years of continuous operation on October 1st, 2012 Buchwald knows what Berliners want in regards to cake and coffee. If you want the ultimate Berlin coffee shop then look no further. They specialize in a German layer cake called baumkuchen. The menu is pretty much limited to coffee and cake. The dining room is very pleasant and there is a very nice outdoor dining area during the warmer months on the bank of the Spree.

    Traditional baumkuchen! Apricot layers with a light marzipan glaze on top. Must try!

    As the last bakery on my abroad trip bucket list, it did not disappoint. It is in an adorable place of town, so many delicious desserts, staff helped us wonderfully. I got the traditional baumkuchen and it was heavenly. Not too sweet but sweet enough. My mom got the apple cake and loved it. When I come back to Berlin I must try their cheesecake- they said it won a national competition. If you sit outside on a nice day, don't sit next to the bushes unless you want a group of birds tagging along. Would most definitely go again and again!
