Best cupcakes in Athens

If you are into American style cupcakes then this is the place for you! As far as I know (and trust me I've been around...#chocoholicalert) Cake is the best place in Athens for treating myself with a small delicious piece of cake once a week, at least! Divine flavours and authentic recipes have been mixed for the last 12 years by the Elliot siblings, owners of the cake-bakery, offering gastronomic surprises in every bite.

It is located in Kolonaki but there are also a new Cake bakery in Kifisia and one in Nea Smirni. So, if you are in the mood for something sweet pop by Cake and experience the unique recipes. I love their notorious carrot cake but I am a huge fan of their chocolate-streamed cake and I am telling you…it tastes like heaven!

Kallidromiou Market

Follow the orange awnings

This is more than an ordinary open market for me. I love to visit the market every Saturday morning and buy flowers for my friends and me.
