Where to buy bread cakes chocolates ice cream Province Of Girona

In its stone case, this Can Carbasseres is an old bakery which has made a name for itself in its speciality: the bacon cake, still made in an artisanal way. It is a sweet and sour cake that is very pleasant to eat and will delight big eaters. In any case, it does not come by the slice, but its minimum size satisfies six people, preferably when it has just come out of the oven. Also take advantage of your visit to stock up on breads and other pastries, also of good quality.

The Tuset family's baking adventure began in 1989 in Badalona. But it was in 1995, when the company moved to Castellfollit, that it turned to pastry-making, offering muffins and then cupcakes at customer request. Initially made plain, they were gradually topped with chocolate or apple, in response to repeated customer requests. Today, more than 24 varieties of "magdalenes" grace the menu of their specialty. If you like them, you can find them in their stores in Besalú and Peratallada.

You can go there early in the morning to have your breakfast, accompanied by natural fruit juices, good French toast and many pastries. But it is also the meeting place for the city's sweet tooth. You'll find neules, small crispy cigarettes with a vanilla flavour, but also turrón, a corner for choco addicts and collections of cakes that make you salivate as soon as you enter. To be enjoyed indoors or on the terrace.

If you haven't been able to taste the menu of the famous Celler de Can Roca, learn here that one of the three brothers at the helm of the restaurant, Jordi Roca, has opened a tasting room for home-made ice cream. The place is not as unusual as the name, the decoration of the little shop is completely crazy: you feel as if you've stepped into a mini Willy Wonka's house. The ice creams themselves come in a variety of flavours and compositions that can then be combined with numerous "toppings". With new creations every season.

In a quiet little street overlooking the ramblings this is a place to taste madrilenes or porras, from potron-minet. His reputation in this area remains intact and the followers are numerous. To enjoy inside or on a terrace sheltered by a few plants.

Since February 2020, choco addicts have had a new landmark address in Girona: the Casa Cacao chocolate factory. At the head of this adventure is pastry chef Jordi Roca, the youngest of the three Roca brothers, who buys cocoa beans directly from small communities in Peru, Venezuela, Colombia and Ecuador, paying a fair price for them. You'll also be able to try xuixo, Girona's emblematic sweet, made according to a centuries-old recipe and filled with chocolate cream.
