When you go beyond the category of a small or provincial city, a whole host of new businesses emerge on its streets, capable (sometimes) of living side by side with the churrerías, florists and other stores as usual. Thus, there are two kinds of pastry shops in Seville that can be distinguished practically at a glance: those that exude tradition on all four sides and the more recent ones, select confectioneries or sweet shops that will delight those looking for traditional flavors and more avant-garde cakes.
All of them are welcome in Seville, where coffee shops and other spaces dedicated to the breakfasts y snacks are in full swing. French pastry shops, Portuguese pastry shops and other seductive sweet shops to find the best cakes in town.
1. Manu Jara
Manu Jara is a pastry standard by definition. One of the best pastry shops in Seville in whose showcases the sweets strut like small edible jewels. A temple in which French pastries predominate but where there is always room for the Sevillian solera. Thus, the éclairs coexist with the torrijas and these with their palm trees, mille-feuille and croissants.
No one is left indifferent after tasting their delicacies, which in some cases are also can be ordered in cake format. All these delicacies are ideal to share, to give as a gift or to indulge in a larger size.
