Hollandia


In Helsingborg they have Fahlman's, in Stockholm there is Vete-Katten and in Lund they used to have Lundagård. Hollandia is situated on Södra Förstadsgatan and of course they should be in this blog, since it is the best patisserie in Malmö. And the oldest. It has been on the premises since 1903, but got its name in the 50's when they bought new furniture from Holland. The café is still very popular, the only that I know of which needs queue tickets. But one can use some time in line, because there is so much to choose from.

If you want to experience a typical Swedish fika, then this is the place. You get pleasant light from the lamps, a soft wall to wall carpet and a huge samovar with coffee, where you get your refill yourself. And when the weather gets warmer, Hollandia has one of Malmö's best out door cafés. No traffic instead lots to look at as a pedestrian walk is right outside.


Hollandia also cares a lot about the ingredients. And that is why all the pastries are exceptionally tasty. Five bakers and two pastry chefs bake every thing from scratch, they even make their own butter. And the berries on the Passionfruit and Chocolate Mousse cake are raw, that is, not heated. As much as possible Hollandia like to serve anything organic , but "best choice" is even more important. The eggs are from a small farm in Vinslöv and the coffee is Zoega's Cultiva which is both organic and fair trade.
