Acherer Patisserie & Blumen

The Dolomites


Right by the town gate, Acherer Patisserie & Blumen sells strudel and Sachertorte that may just be the region's best; the young owner reopened his grandfather's former bakery after apprenticing in Vienna. His inventive, rather fancy cakes, chocolates and seasonal preserves now grace many of the region's five-starred pillows and breakfast buffets. Gluten-free options are also available.
