Pastries &Amp; Cake restaurants in Venice

  1. A

    Pasticceria Tonolo

    Dire B&B breakfasts with packaged croissants are corrected at Tonolo, which serves flaky apfelstrudel (apple pastry) and oozing pain au chocolat (chocolate croissants). Chocolate-topped beignets are filled with hazelnut mousse as rich as a Venetian doge at tax time.

  2. B

    Pasticceria Da Bonifacio

    Down a narrow alley just around the corner from the Palazzo Ducale, this little bakery attracts hard-bitten gondoliers as well as hunger-dazed tourists with its selection of pizzette (mini-pizzas), petits fours, and traditional Venetian biscuits including zaletti (cornmeal biscuits with sultanas). As afternoon wanes, the bakery turns into a makeshift bar as locals pop in for the signature Americano cocktail (sweet vermouth, bitters and soda).

  3. C

    Mauro El Forner de Canton

    A boutique of bread by the Rialto, with the ubiquitous bovoli (snail-shaped rolls), crusty loaves for all your pressing panino needs, rich hazelnut-studded biscuits called pan dei dogi (doge’s bread) and, for some fibre and a change of pace, wholegrain breads.
