If you are a biscuits/pastries/chocolate lover, then La Duquesita in Madrid is your place. Not only can you find something delicious here at any moment, but you can also buy yummy presents while traveling. And I know for a fact that they are golden.

La Duquesita has been open for more than a century, and the shop has some gems to prove it, starting with the floor tiles. But also check out the lamp and mirrors on the wall — I bet they have stories to tell. Images of the city and of people having coffee here from another era will pass through your mind. You will feel a vintage vibe as you enter. Oh and that wooden door is one of my favorites in the city.

The staff is friendly and helpful; they seem to know this is a crucial part of the shop’s success. It is tiny but cozy and beautiful, so come here for your morning coffee, a special snack or do as I do: come for their almond croissants. They are to die for! Expect pastries, eclairs, cakes, elephant ears (chocolate palms), macaroons, artisan biscuits, Sacher cake, and all kinds of coffees. The offering keeps changing, especially with the seasons, so be aware of this if you have something particular in mind.

Treat yourself or someone special in your life with a traditional sweet in or from La Duquesita, it is simply “yummylicious”.
