Do the cakes contain alcohol?

In short

Nine of the twelve do. But almost all of them can be made WITHOUT alcohol if you ask when ordering: the only three exceptions are the rompope with coconut, the controy and the amaretto, where the liqueur is the flavour itself.

Nine of the twelve flavours are laced. These are them:

  • Expresso, with brandy.
  • Trufa, with brandy.
  • Rompope with coconut, with rompope.
  • Sacher torte, with brandy.
  • Mont Blanc, with brandy.
  • Controy, with orange liqueur.
  • Black forest, with brandy.
  • Amaretto, with amaretto liqueur.
  • Moka, with brandy.

The three with nothing in them are the blueberry cheesecake, the apple and carrot and the nutella cake.

Almost all of them can be made WITHOUT alcohol, if you ask

This is the most useful thing on this page: any flavour can be made without alcohol if you ask when you place the order. You do not have to give up the flavour you like over it.

The three exceptions are the rompope with coconut, the controy and the amaretto. In those three the liqueur is not a touch of something: it is the flavour, and without it the cake stops being what it says it is. Those cannot be made alcohol free.

Say so when ordering, not afterwards: the syrup goes in as it bakes, so a cake that is already made cannot be un-laced.

It is common in the European pastry tradition we come from: the liqueur goes into the syrup or the filling and brings aroma more than any taste of alcohol.

If the cake is for children, for someone pregnant, or for someone who does not drink, say so when you order and we will point you to the ones that are free of it. The full list is in what flavours we offer.
