Beyond Pretzels: Exploring Authentic German Breads & Cakes in Bengaluru

At BrezelHaus, the pretzel may be our icon, but it’s only the beginning. German baking is a world full of heritage, flavors, and seasonal traditions — and we’ve brought them all to Indiranagar, so you can experience Germany bite by bite.

The World of German Breads

Germany is famous for its over 300 varieties of bread. Each one is crafted with purpose — some hearty for the cold winters, some soft for breakfast, some perfect for a festive table. At BrezelHaus, you’ll find a curated selection, baked fresh every day:

  • Sourdough Loaf – Crusty, tangy, and fermented the traditional way

  • Kaiser Buns – Light, golden rolls, perfect with butter or cheese

  • Pretzel Baguettes – A classic mini baguette from home

  • Cheese Buns – Soft, warm rolls with a gooey cheese top

  • Whole Wheat Loaf – Wholesome, and hearty

Every loaf tells a story of craftsmanship — slow fermentation, careful shaping, and baking that makes the crust sing.

German Cakes You’ll Love

Bread is our foundation, but cake is our joy. Germany’s desserts are about balance: rich but not too sweet, indulgent yet full of character. At BrezelHaus, you can taste:

  • Käsekuchen (German Cheesecake): Lighter and less sweet than its American cousin, with a creamy texture that melts in your mouth

  • Black Forest Cake: Made the German way, from the black forest — with sour cherries and cherry liquor, never overly sweet

  • Stollen: A spiced, seasonal special, Christmas bread with dried fruits, and powdered sugar, baked only during the festive season

  • Hefezopf (Easter/Sunday Bread): A soft, braided loaf that’s as beautiful as it is delicious

Why This Matters in Bangalore

Most bakeries in Bangalore serve breads and cakes the “international” way. But at BrezelHaus, we bake them the German way: less sugar, more substance, and a focus on tradition. It’s not just about taste — it’s about experiencing another culture, our culture.

When you walk into our bistro, you’re not just buying bread or cake — you’re sharing in centuries of European baking, crafted fresh for Bangalore’s food lovers.

A Sweet Invitation

If you’ve only tried our pretzels, let your next visit be about discovery. Try a sourdough loaf for your breakfast table, or a slice of Käsekuchen with your HausBrew coffee. That’s when you’ll understand why Germany is called the “breadbasket of Europe.”
