Frau Behrens Torten Charlottenburg

Handmade cakes based on recipes from a Spanish grandmother, a plush café ambiance, and eleven cheesecake variations on the counter: Frau Behrens Torten in Charlottenburg, Kreuzberg, and Friedenau represents confectionery craftsmanship that is hard to find twice in Berlin.

Frau Behrens Torten: Confectionery with History and Craftsmanship

Behind the concept is Victoria Fernandez, a native Galician and trained master confectioner, who initially delighted friends and family with her cakes before developing a business idea from it. Following her Spanish grandmother’s recipes, she bakes a wide variety of cakes, with the offerings varying seasonally. The result is no off-the-shelf café. All products are handmade; no convenience products, baking mixes, or flavor enhancers are used. This promise extends to all three locations.

Over the years, the traditional confectionery has grown into a network with a bakery and chocolaterie in Charlottenburg, a patisserie and chocolaterie in Friedenau, and a charming café in Kreuzberg. So, if you’re strolling along Bergmannstraße or walking down Wilmersdorfer Straße, a visit is almost unavoidable.

Cakes and Tarts for Every Occasion

The assortment is remarkably wide. Eleven different cheesecake variations alone are waiting to be discovered. In addition, seasonal specialties regularly refresh the counter. Highlights include classics like Black Forest Cherry and fruity variations like the Peach-Passion Fruit Cake. Besides cakes, Frau Behrens offers numerous types of pastries and tarts, freshly prepared daily.

The ambiance matches the offerings. The café is comfortably furnished, the breakfast and small dishes menu is diverse, and once you sit down, you feel as if you’ve stepped back in time in a plush setting. For those who want to enjoy the sun: there are many outdoor seating options, especially recommended during the warmer months. Cash payment is requested, so don’t forget small change.
