The sweet side of Europe

Serving delicious cakes with coffee in Europe's cafés is a long-held tradition. The café is a place for meetings, intellectual debates and gossip. It's a place where people talk, read, write - and above all enjoy themselves.

Europe's cafés seduce us with the wealth and variety of their cuisine. Thanks to The Institute of the Regions of Europe and its Cafés d'Europe project, we can offer you recipes for typical cakes and desserts from 27 European countries.

Experience the delicious variety of Europe as it dissolves on your tongue! We wish you bon appetit and creative cooking with the highlights of sweet European cuisine.
