A beautiful bakery fika spot barely out of the way in Stockholm. Modern aesthetic with plenty of seating, there's always a plethora of options at this popular spot. They're known best for their red velvet croissants, but they have swedish classics like cardamom buns and lots of other types of pastries, cakes, and pies. MR CAKE is always abundantly staffed and they are always willing to answer any questions you have. We got a tart, slice of pie, and red velvet croissant. Coffee and hot chocolate were made swiftly. Despite being dessert bakery items, nothing was overly sweet and there was a good mix of flavors! Highly recommend this gem of a spot. read more

This place had me at "red velvet croissant." What a great pairing! Mr. Cake has a name that implies that they only focus on dessert but we were glad to see that breakfast is popular here as well. The display case had regular croissants, cinnamon rolls, kanelebulles, solbulles, sugarlicks, and cinnabuns along with cakes and other pastries. They also offered breakfast sandwiches. I went for the red velvet croissant and I was not disappointed! The croissant was huge! It was flaky and soft and it had just the right amount of red velvet flavor without being overpowering. Cream cheese icing oozed out of the middle as I made my way through it. It was great! Had I been able to pack a dozen of these in my bag, I definitely would've brought some home! read more

Lots of variety and good food. Their cinnamon rolls are delicious. Space is a little limited so if you plan on just going wherever, it would be better to plan so you can get a seat. If you like pastries, I'd defiantly make a visit. read more

The red velvet cheesecake has a properly tangy red velvet cake. I liked the cream cheese icing more than the cheesecake itself, which was good but I was just in more of a cakey mood than a cheesecakey one. The texture of the cake is also great. Moist with a light chew. The cardamom bun is nothing special--the place is called Mr Cake for a reason! read more

Best cakes in all of Sweden!!!! Love love love this place. We have never eaten in here, which seems chaotic and crowded as it's very popular. We order all of our birthday cakes and special occasion cakes from here and they are seriously the best! BONUS: they have "American" cinnamon buns, the big soft ones covered in icing!! read more

Delicious!!!! I wish my stomach was as big as my eyes. You must try their famous red velvet crossaint! The place is pretty big and has ample seating, if it's not too busy. It was moderately busy when we arrived on a Monday afternoon. They have a pretty good selection of pastries and cakes and coffee. It's also neat you can see inside the kitchen where all the magic happens! I'd definitely go back next time I'm in town. read more

Such a cozy cafe with amazing pastries! I got the red velvet croissant, cardamom bun, and decaf latte. The pastries were rich but not overly sweet, and the coffee was great (also the latte art was so good!). The seating area was super comfy and great for catching up with friends read more

Wow simply amazing!!! A picture is worth a thousand and one words!! If you ever make to this part of the world Mr Cake is the spot read more

Although one does occasionally see a touch of America in Swedish culture it is fairly safe to say that Fika throughout Stockholm stick fairly close to tradition, a lone exception found at Rådmansgatan 12 where Mr. Cake has seen guests line up seven days a week since late 2017 for sweets and savories cut from a different fabric and spanning in influence from Grandma's cookbook to the sort of things offered at Mr. Holmes Bakehouse in California. Operated out of an old Architectural College by two regionally famous Bakers, Roy Fares and Mattias Ljungberg of nearby Tössebageriet converting a forgotten space into one where families and friends are invited to sit outdoors amongst sculpture or inside where Pop-Culture runs amok, it is immediately upon entry from an elevated vantage that eyes are treated to a lengthy counter of options, the combination of refrigerator cases and racks further complimented by a menu of choices from the fully-visible kitchen. Commanding a slight premium compared to other Bageris and Konditoris in town, the operational costs no doubt higher at Mr. Cake than a space like Bakery & Spice where choices are limited and seating nonexistent, it was after watching several locals make selections while continuously being tempted that an order of eight items was crafted, each carefully placed on plates or trays with boxes and bags alongside for leftovers. Still rooted in technique despite coloring outside the lines, the city's fluffiest Solbulle but one standout with equally creamy Custard also packing the center of an upright Brioche Donut additionally featuring sugar-poached Rhubarb, the is no doubt that Mr. Cake's Red Velvet Croissant remains the store's best seller some 9-months after its debut, the color merely a photogenic hook as flaky layers devoid of Cocoa surround a core of tangy Cream Cheese Frosting. By no means abandoning the classics in favor of novelty, Chef Ljungberg's Tosca recipe from Tössebageriet simply piled higher here while Coconut--heavy Chokladboll are cut square like a Brownie under the name Choklad Ruta, it is amidst golden spirals here that one of Stockholm's best Cardamom Rolls is available, a distinct butteriness penetrating deeply and creating a flavor nearly as savory as it is sweet. Rounding out the collection with Quick Breads and Cake Slices, everything from seasonal Berries to a particularly decorative Princess available in early Summer, it was unfortunate that a Salted Caramel wedge came across sugary and one-dimensional despite what appeared to be several layers, the Carrot Loaf peeled from cardboard faring far better thanks to piped Cream Cheese Frosting and good density loaded with aromatic Spices. read more

It's interesting, as an American abroad, to see what Swedes think a bakery with an American twist is. On one hand, Mr. Cake has bolle (cinnamon and cardamom buns), which are standard Swedish fare and as good here as anywhere else. On the other hand, they have the cakes of their name. Their cakes are sold by the (very large slice), and they have things like red velvet and triple chocolate that definitely seem American. Some of the other flavor combos in the cakes, like rhubarb pistachio, are a bit less American. But the cakes are all tasty. read more

Great place if your tooth is crying for some sweets. I like the cronut and the red velvet croissant. I've tried the cakes as well and they are equally amazing. Only sweet stuff I tried that weren't that good was the taco semla, it looked good but lack flavors. The cappuccinos are pretty good here and regular coffee includes refill.This place will definitely set your beach-2018-body back a few kilos if your not carful. When it comes to real food as expected it's no good, at least not for me. The Macaroni and cheese dish was good, but far from great. Falafel salad looks great, but if they added some grilled lamb and made the falafels less dry and hard it's probably the only dinner dish I'd go for. Here you come for pastries and ogle on the ones you didn't buy this time. As with most really popular places in Stockholm there will be a lot of people and Swedes like to que. That's why I normally avoid the more popular places to people who like to spend 30min waiting. So expect a lot of people, basically any day or time. Your best bet is to first case a table and then order your food and you have to move fast since there's others with the same idea. We've had to wait like 20-30mins most of the time, otherwise there's always take-away. This spring they will open up outside as well so then it would definitely be much easier to grab somewhere to sit. You need to try this place at least one time. read more

Not sure if I caught a case of bandwagon fever or if this place really is that great but I really liked this spot. Hubs and I tried the semla, chocolicious bar, and the red velvet croissant. The space itself was quite large with many small tables and looks more like a cool modern basement cafe. Also, get ready to pay- for 3 pastries and a cappuccino, it came out to almost $27 (US)! I loooove semla and the one here was had potent cardamom flavoring but light almond flavor.. i generally prefer both to be equally distinctive. Also, I made a mistake in ordering a small one, which couldn't fit as much whipped cream as I wanted. Next time, I'm going big! The chocolicious bar had a candy-bar like shell and smooth mousse on the inside. It was delicious! The saltier fattier frosting nobs on top gave it some interesting contrast. Hubs liked the red velvet croissant but it made me want actual red velvet cake. I thought the croissant was wonderfully moist but the cream cheese frosting on the inside was too heavy and sweet for my taste. Oh also I thought it looked scary.. but it's worth trying for yourself! We had to wait in line on a Sat afternoon for about 10min. That part wasn't so bad, but finding a seat was tough, especially since some people hijacked/saved themselves seats before even ordering, preventing people who already had food from sitting down. I wish the staff here would make a rule about this sort of thing, but oh well. After standing around awkwardly for a few minutes, we managed to get a table from a couple who took pity on us. read more

This place would of gotten 5 stars but I feel like Swedes the really overrate this place . I was really packed , the sitting area was very cramped and not comfortable at all . The pastries that I got made up for that , I loved the fact that the owner was there working himself . read more

I had high expectations on this place, and they were not met. First, NO WIFI! This is 2018, and how can a coffee place have no wifi? Ridiculous. They really don't want you to hang around there. Mobile reception was not great as it's a bit of a basement feel, so WiFi would have been good. Second, the cakes I have tried here have generally been good, but the portions are very VERY small for the prices, and the prices are insanely high! Last time I tried the Red Velvet cheesecake and it was SEK 69 (USD 8). For a tiny, tiny piece of cheesecake. For some reason they charged me SEK10 more than what the prices stated in their menu. It was good, but definitely not worth it. The coffee prices are also inflated (SEK35 for a filter coffee), and the coffee was mediocre at best. They charge SEK 79 for the bigger cakes, which at least are pretty big pieces, so you may want to try those if you go here. The cheesecake I got last time was not big, way below what's you'd normally get. Not worth it, just silly prices. Third, the salads were not good. I tried the falafel salad and it was simply very very dry. Dry and overpriced. No thanks. So overall, considering how many amazing cafes there are in the are, I wouldn't recommend this. The space itself is quite nicely done, but loud because the acoustics are bad (all the screams just bounce around). So don't go there for the peace and quiet and relaxation. read more

Two famous pastry chefs, Roy Fares and Mattias Ljungberg, decided to put their inspirational heads together and open MR Cake in Stockholm at A House - the old architect college, also quite often referred to as the ugliest building in Stockholm. Though there's nothing ugly about Mr Cake, on the contrary it's quite lush, beautiful and full of goodies! The interior is modern, dark, a bit rustic and bustling with customers and pastry chefs working in the semi-open kitchen area. Francly, it was a joy just walking in! Crowded but me and my friend managed to snag a small table in the back and then headed to more or less mentally drooling over all the goodies available. All kinds of buns, donuts, cupcakes, cakes, brownies; whatever kind of sweet tooth you have - something here will find your fancy. I settled for a dark chocolate brownie with burnt meringue on top together with a cup of cappucino, while my colleague had a bun (exactly which kind I have unfortunately forgotten, but it was apparently "heavenly"). My brownie was smooth and lush without that compact density that brownies so easily can be. The burnt meringue was a nice contrast to the chocolate, providing a bit of relief from the sweetness. In all, I would have preferred some kind of tart fruit/berries to ease off the sweetness a bit as I generally find things that are very sugary needs a contrast to bring it back and make it "sing" so to speak. Just a bit one dimensional to be honest. The cappuccino definitely helped in providing a bit of relief from the sugar. But don't let this discourage you in any way or form. They have so much available, as well as salads, yoghurts with granola and much much more. I'm most definitely a fan and I'm absolutely going back to try more things! Also, the staff is really friendly and helpful and this place will without a doubt be a huge success if they maintain this kind of quality that I experienced today. Go there! read more

Delicious pastries that are gorgeously made. Nice ambiance thoughtful decor. Service was just standard, had to call for service even though there were 4/5 people behind the counter and we were the only ones in the line. Ordered: - Salted Caramel Cake: Sweet Caramel with a perfect balance of saltiness. The sponge cake was moist and light and the filling was smooth and creamy. - Lingonberry Tart: nice balance of the tartness of the Lingonberry and Meringue. The crust was sturdy enough to hold the tart up and flaky enough to easily cut a bite with the dessert fork. - Nachos Semla: An idea that didn't really work out. The result does not look good and the "Nachos" does not feel right. The "Nachos" were hard and dry (not crunchy) with a slow taste of cardamom. Might be for someone that likes hard crackers which they can dip in whipped cream and almond paste (not that sweet/easy to control the topping ratio), but it was not something for me (even though I'm not a sweet tooth person). - Gluten free/Flourless Chocolate mouse pastry with raspberry center: Loves the chocolate glaze and chocolate mouse. It was very light and fluffy, yet very rich and decadent. Not too fond of the raspberry center (would be better if it was fresh berries). Quite/very sweet. I look forward in trying more of their deliciousness. read more

A lovely place: warm and cosy atmosphere, and the prices are not that high. I'll definitely visit it again.

This place is an overrated cafe and pastry eatery. It was very American and overpriced for what you get. My party had much of the menu but I personally had their red velvet croissant. It was excellent with the cream cheese filling. I was a little disappointed that there was no wifi available as it is a cafe. The taste of the food is why I would come back. read more

Their hot chocolate was decent. Needed a bit more decadence but much better compared to hot chocolate at most Swedish cafes. Baby semla was delicious :) read more

The cakes etc were great but pricey. It was way too busy. Standing around with coffee and cakes going cold for 20mins waiting for a seat to be available was not fun. Whats worst was people who had not ordered yet just took tables as soon as people left ignoring all the people stood with orders. Atleast have a way of giving people who have orders a seating ticket or something. Alternatively get a bigger place.. read more
