Ekberg|Helsinki century-old shop Budapest must-see
đ„ Ekberg: Helsinki's 170-Year-Old Bakery & the Legendary Budapest Roll đ AddressïŒBulevardi 9, Helsinki đ How to Get ThereïŒTake buses 3/6 from Central Station (Platform 42), get off at Fredriksgatanâright in front of the cafe! đ Pro Tip: Restaurant vs. Cafe CafeïŒNo reservation needed, grab cakes & coffee at lower prices. RestaurantïŒReserve ahead; same cakes cost âŹ1-2 more (for a sit-down meal vibe). đ° Sweet Treats You Must Try Budapest Cake (âŹ5.2) âïžâïžâïžâïžâïž The iconic house special! Layers of light sponge, non-greasy cream, and tangy fruit chunks. Best part? Itâs not overly sweetâseriously, the holy grail of desserts. Passion Fruit Cheesecake (âŹ5.9) âïžâïžâïžâïž Creamy cheesecake base smothered in zesty passion fruit pulp. Tart, rich, and perfect with an Americano. Caramel Mille-Feuille (âŹ5.9) Stunning layers of flaky pastry and caramel cream. Gorgeous to look at, but very sweetâshare with a friend (and order tea to cut the sugar). đ Autumn Afternoon Vibes Sit outside on the wooden chairs, watch trams roll by, and soak in the last bits of Helsinki sunshine. Pro tip: Bring a jacket! The breeze is chilly even when the sunâs out (Finnish autumn, am I right? đ„¶) đ A Century of Baking Glory Open since 1852, Ekberg is a living piece of Helsinki history. Locals grab morning buns, while tourists (like us) flock for insta-worthy desserts. Next on my list: Their cinnamon rollsâapparently legendary. #EkbergHelsinki #BudapestCakeGoals #FinnishCafeCulture #170YearsOfYum
