Cafe-Konditorei Furst

There are many Mozart chocolate shops in Salzburg with different recipes. Cafe Konditorei Fürst opened in 1884. The founder is PAUL FÜRST, a confectioner who brought the art of confectionery to Salzburg. This kind of spherical chocolate with tin foil packaging and pistachio filling. Fürst insists on handmade, and there are actually many other chocolates and handmade pastries in the store. I heard that the coffee shop opposite is the coffee shop that Mozart used to go to, and it is also one of the top three oldest coffee shops in the world.

We chose to have afternoon tea at the dessert shop Cafe - Konditorei Furst. Their donuts are really great and not too sweet. They go perfectly with coffee.

This dessert shop is located on the east side of Mirabell Gardens in Salzburg. The front is small, but its blue-based decoration style is quite obvious. Although the shop is not big, it is still very famous in Salzburg as the shop that developed Mozart chocolate. I personally feel that Mozart chocolate is quite famous. It contains various fillings, but the taste is a bit sweet. However, the desserts here are not bad and worth a try.

In the city, you can see a wide variety of things related to Mozart. Street performers play Mozart's music, bookstores sell Mozart's biography, and the most popular candy in the store is "Mozart chocolate balls"... Speaking of Mozart chocolate balls, if you see red packaging, it is not authentic Mozart handmade chocolate. The authentic ones are packaged with silver paper and blue labels. Cafe-Konditorei Furst only sells authentic Mozart handmade chocolate balls. Of course, the pure handmade Mozart chocolate balls are naturally more expensive. There are many kinds of packaging and sizes. The 5-piece bag is 7.5 euros/bag. If you are afraid that the chocolate will be scratched in hot weather, you can spend 1 euro to buy an insulated packaging bag. My girlfriend and I bought some to give as gifts when we return home~ This is also a local specialty of Salzburg. It cannot be bought in other cities or airports in Austria! So don't miss it if you pass by! After all, if you miss this "village", you won't have this "store"!

Cafe-konditorei Furst (Furst Pastry Cafe), diagonally opposite Mirabell Palace, is the original store of Mozart chocolate balls. My friend bought two Mozart chocolate balls and said after eating: they don’t taste as good as Ferrero. 😂😂😂
