If you are visiting Madrid, you cannot miss out on exploring the wide range of desserts that the city has to offer. However, to break the routine, we encourage you to venture out and discover less conventional flavours. In this article, we will introduce you to some unusual desserts that you can enjoy during your stay in the Spanish capital.
Top 5 desserts in Madrid for people with a sweet tooth
Take note of the following list and get your taste buds ready:
Sufu cakes
This cake, which originated in Western culture, has grown from the traditional cheesecake recipe of our gastronomy. It is different because of the method of separating the egg yolk from the white, which gives it a fluffier and lighter texture, similar to that of a soufflé.
If it’s delicious taste still doesn’t quite convince you to try it, it’s worth noting that this dessert contains 25% less sugar than conventional cakes. So you can enjoy it without any remorse.
Nitrogen ice cream
This ice cream variant has made its way from the laboratory to the kitchen, giving us the fascinating experience of witnessing it freeze in a matter of minutes. While it shares ingredients with conventional ice cream, what distinguishes this version is the use of nitrogen in the freezing process.
You can choose the flavour of your choice and add pieces of chocolate or fruit to enrich this innovative technique of molecular gastronomy. Find this delicious experience in the restaurants near our flats in Genova 5.
Semi-liquid cheesecake
Despite the fact that this delicacy is well known in Madrid, its semi-liquid texture distinguishes it and makes it something special for some diners. It is an outstanding alternative that you can’t miss, as it offers a unique culinary experience by fusing the flavours of cheese with other ingredients.
This cheesecake will immerse you in an almost supernatural experience. The good news is that it is available in several restaurants in the city, giving you the opportunity to taste it and choose the place that best suits your taste buds.
Baumkuchen or Tree Cake
This exquisite cake originates from German cuisine and is characterised by its hollow shape in the centre and multiple layers, reminiscent of the rings of a tree. This allows you to savour it in layers, slowly enjoying its deliciousness.
If you want to enjoy this dessert in Madrid, we recommend you visit the Horcher restaurant, one of the most recommended places for both locals and tourists.
