The best pastry shops Turin

A historic Turin patisserie, opened in the early ^20th century by pastry chef Gustavo Pfatsich, who brought his love of gourmet pastry-making with him from the mountains. Housed in a superb Liberty building, under the arcades, it's a veritable kingdom of gourmet delights. Try the cream spreads and the Fenice cake with meringue and fruit. People come from far and wide to try diamanti arriba, filled chocolates in the shape of precious stones, and marrons glacés, some of the best in town. And at the end of 2024, the patisserie will open a museum dedicated to chocolate!

The oldest bakery in Turin where you can find special breads and famous grissini whose stirati are 1,60 m long.

Established in 1880, Gertosio is a historic pasticceria in the center of Turin. Here, you can stock up on quality spreads - a pure delight made with cocoa and Piedmont hazelnuts, guaranteed palm-oil free - and, of course, exceptional homemade chocolates, including traditional Turin gianduiotti in their golden wrappers (there's even a giant version for aficionados!) and dark chocolate bars with whole hazelnuts that are more than appetizing! The perfect place to stock up...

A pastry shop renowned for its excellent chocolate since 1915, it is one of the Piedmont capital's institutions. Try all the wonderful specialties of Turin's great chocolate-making tradition, especially the alpini, chocolates filled with liqueur, and, of course, the famous hazelnut giandujotti. All treats are made from cocoa beans roasted right here in the nearly 1,000^m2 laboratory. Everything is absolutely delicious, whatever you choose... A benchmark!

A real authentic patisserie where you can drink an excellent coffee and nibble on little mignardises, each more appetizing than the last. This is the strong point of the place and it will be really hard to make a choice, believe us! The place isn't very big (there's also a covered veranda terrace with a few tables, but it's pretty narrow), but it's perfect for taking a break like a true Turinese, without the groups of tourists you might find in cafés further inland.

This patisserie, which has been in existence for over a century (it was founded in 1918), prepares delicious cakes that will perk you up during a morning or afternoon break. But you can also have lunch here, as it serves delicious savoury dishes. Quality products and attentive service. The house makes chocolates, sweets and cookies of all kinds, in case you'd like to take a little ballotin home with you!

This cute patisserie doubles as a tea room, where you can sample the vegetarian delights baked here, many of which are vegan cakes. The warm welcome and intimate decor make you feel as if you're visiting friends. Luigia speaks French and will be happy to advise you on traditional Piedmontese sweets and more original preparations to take away with you. Savoury dishes are available at lunchtime if you'd like to take a break: don't hesitate, everything is homemade, nourishing and delicious.

Galup has been a Piedmontese institution since 1922! The factory is still in Pinerolo, but the store in the center of Turin is the perfect place to discover the company's delicious treats in a colorful setting. The store is attractive and, of course, Galup's original panettones are a delight to share: you just can't get enough of their inimitable melt-in-your-mouth texture. Other typical sweets (baci di dama, krumiri, chocolates...) take pride of place on the shelves. A must for the festive season... and the rest of the year too!
