Confiserie Schubert in Saarbrücken, Germany

Last weekend, my family and I took a day trip to Saarbrücken, Germany, only about 90 minutes from Strasbourg. When we left Strasbourg, it was a beautiful fall day with a blue sky, but by the time we arrived in Saarbrücken, it was overcast and downright cold! So we stopped in a little café to have a snack (really, a second breakfast!) to warm up. Confiserie Schubert was the perfect place to stop. I ordered a hot chocolate and my husband ordered a coffee, while our daughter ordered herself a true Berliner (jelly-filled doughnut). Our drinks were so cute that I didn't want to drink mine. (I know, I'm a sucker for a little cookie and a tray!) My husband's coffee came with whipped cream instead of the normal liquid version.


The café also had a little storefront for their baked items. The petits fours were so beautiful:


They even had the cutest little hedgehog cakes...I'm not really sure why, but aren't they cute?

  4. Hey Mindy, if you read this, I cannot get your site to link to mine, so I can keep up with you, and I do not see an email, so would you go back to mine and link us...I am better at kitchen gadgets than this computer stuff!

  6. Confiserie Schubert is simply amazing. The chocolate is the finest in the world. When in Saarbrucken, an absolute must try - your world will never be the same.
