Tosca pastries from Gateau



What's this? Oh, only one of the most heavenly pastries ever thought up. It's a danish (wienerbröd in Swedish), topped with vanilla custard and caramelized almonds, pistachios, walnuts and hazelnuts. And who makes this? Not me - sorry to say - but Gateau Bakery does. They were, not surprisingly, chosen as "pastry bakery of the year". Well deserved, in my opinion.

If you're in Stockholm, pay them a visit - they have a couple of locations, and I usually go to the one right here in Nacka, which is their main bakery nowadays. (Although just a very tiny serving area, so if you want to eat there, choose the one in Sturegallerian instead.)

Hmm, not exactly walking distance so I'm going to try with Gallerian or Sturegallerian after work instead :-) Sorry for spamming :-)

I agree with Dagmar; those look absolutely delicious! Almonds, pistachios, walnuts, AND hazelnuts? Surely there's not a better mix of nuts. I'm now very hungry, but alas, there are no bakeries nearby. I really need to consider a trip to Sweden to taste all these wonderful things!

Jag älskar Gateaus chokladmoussetårta. Fast man kommer sig kanske inte för att käka där eftersom Sturehof ligger så nära.
