Torte i To

Ask locals to name the city’s best place for cakes and a lot of them will opt for Torte i To (“Cakes ‘n’ That”), despite the rather soulless location of their flagship outlet in the Kaptol Centar shopping mall. They certainly qualify as undisputed champions in the cheesecake category, with several quite sumptuous, fruit-laden varieties on display at any one time. They also offer quite a few cake recipes that you don’t find elsewhere, such as the soft-and-spongy, lemon and poppy-seed Armenian Cake; and a veritable club-sandwich of a cake featuring layers of chocolate, orange and fig. As well as biscuits and other nibbles, Torte i to also sell their own wittily-packaged chocolate bars, one of which simply reads “odjebi” or “f*ck off” - surely the ideal gift for at least someone in your life.
