Kuk Hofbackerei takes diners back in time. This historic timber-framed gourmet bakery dates back to 1371 and represents the oldest surviving building front in Linz. Master baker, Fritz Rath, took over 25 years ago, and today serves up freshly baked bread, sweet cakes, and decadent pastries. The most famous menu item: the Linzer Torte. As early as 1656, recipes mention the jam filled, nut-flavored pastry, making it the oldest cake recipe in the world. Kuk Hofbackerei has its own special recipe with a mix of nuts, spices, red current jam, and secret ingredients passed down through the owner’s family for generations.
