GUIDO GOBINO
Read moreAt Gobino, chocolate isn't just a quality treat, it's a sensory experience where every bite represents hours of work and research. Excellence begins with the raw materials: cocoa, selected from the finest vintages, hazelnuts, essential to the famous gianduiotto, typical of the Turin tradition, and the best flavours to make each chocolate a unique piece. Add to this the trendy design, and the packaging that would be worthy of being displayed in a museum for its elegant simplicity.
STRATTA
Read moreRenowned for its many melting chocolates and marrons glacés (a marvel, arguably the best in the city!) since 1836, this is where Cavour used to order for his receptions as a minister. The glorious patisserie now has a chic little counter where you can sip a good coffee or cappuccino in the morning. From April to November, if you take a seat on the lovely terrace overlooking the Piazza San Carlo, you'll be served a number of dishes as light as they are refined, ranging from club sandwiches to smoked salmon with salad.
PASTICCERIA BARBERO

The setting of the patisserie, under the arcades, has not changed and has kept its wooden shelves, marble tables and paved floor from over a century ago. A true temple to gourmet delights!
