The coffee houses in early 20th century Vienna were a second living room for artists, intellectuals, and lovers of sweets of all kinds. Here, people relaxed, discussed, and above all, enjoyed! Amidst this cosmopolitan atmosphere, pastry chef Therese Schulz delighted the guests of the former Vienna Grand Hotel with her sweet creations – meticulously documenting her recipes in the process. A hundred years later, family members rediscover these records in the attic and hand them over to recipe developer Bernadette Wörndl, who translates them for us into modern times.

The result is this unique baking book with over 75 heavenly pastry recipes. From classics like Vanillekipferl and Sachertorte to nostalgic delights like Miss-Wanda slices and diplomat pudding – this is where the hearts of lovers of Austrian sweets and pastries beat faster. The culinary journey is complemented by atmospheric recipe images, excerpts from Therese's original recipe book, and nostalgic photographs of Vienna. A tribute to the art of Viennese pastry making.
