Coffee, Breads, Desserts, and Ice Cream in Warsaw
Oooo Kochani, it’s time for coffee, breads, desserts, and ice cream! 🍰🍦🥖☕️
Growing up, my grandmother and I would start baking on Friday evening after school. We usually baked through Saturday to have desserts ready for Sunday dinner and throughout the week. I have a great appreciation for sweets because I know how much precision they take, plus I usually had to go to the forest to pick blueberries myself (which takes hours!) or to our garden to get raspberries or apples.
Polish bakeries are phenomenal, and now they look state-of-the-art.
Here are my favorite ones in Warsaw:
My Top 2 Favorites—
1. Słodki Słony
Owned by the famous Polish baker Magdalena Gessler, Słodki Słony is a must-visit. Although their website may not be the best, the pastries and candy more than make up for it. Perfect for a sweet treat right after lunch at FlamingCo.

But what is Beza?
Beza, or meringue, although originating from France, has a cherished place in Polish dessert culture. It’s commonly used in tort bezowy and other layered meringue cakes filled with fresh fruit and cream. This delicious treat has become a beloved part of Polish culinary tradition.
