The patisserie at Wilde Matilde is the sugary heart of the restaurant story: a place where the spirit of old Berlin cafés meets circus magic, burlesque flair and colorful fantasy. What began in the world of fine pastry at the legendary Café Bauer now lives on in the Nikolaiviertel as a playful dessert paradise in the middle of Berlin.
Finest patisserie with Berlin soul
- The origin story of Wilde Matilde starts with a “Frollein” who worked in the patisserie of the famous Café Bauer and fell in love with fine confectionery.
- This tradition continues today in the in-house bakery, where craftsmanship and a touch of nostalgia shape every cake, tart and sweet creation.
Colorful selection of petits fours and macarons
- Guests can indulge in delicate petits fours, vibrant macarons and charming madeleines that feel like little edible pieces of art.
- These bite-sized treats are perfect to accompany coffee, tea or a sparkling drink and bring a French-inspired elegance into the Berlin café atmosphere.
Cakes, tortes and “Liebesknochen” for sweet tooths
- The dessert counter at Wilde Matilde includes a range of cakes, tortes and specialties like “Liebesknochen”, turning the restaurant into a true cake heaven.
- Whether for afternoon coffee, a brunch finale or as a dessert after dinner, the patisserie selection makes every visit feel like a small celebration.
Cake pops and playful creations for young and old
- Colorful cake pops and other fun sweets reflect the circus and carousel theme of the restaurant, delighting both children and adults.
- The playful look of these sweets fits perfectly with the chain carousel bar, pink Rococo furniture and the overall fairytale setting.
“Glitzer-Cappuccino” and sweet drinks for grown-ups
- The legendary “Kliiitzer-Capuccino” brings the patisserie idea into the cup and adds a sparkling, instagrammable highlight to the coffee moment.
- For adults, cocktails are described as “Nascherei für die Großen”, meaning sweet indulgences in liquid form to match the desserts.
The perfect dessert stop in the Nikolaiviertel
- Located in the historic Nikolaiviertel with views of the TV Tower, Berlin Cathedral and City Palace, Wilde Matilde is an ideal dessert stop on any Berlin tour.
- Whether you come for cake and coffee in the afternoon, a sweet finale after dinner or a patisserie break during sightseeing, the in-house confectionery turns every visit into a sweet escape from everyday life.
