New Year 2020

68 Oct19651 Sumptuous Sweet-Tasting Success For Spanish Bakery Nestled in the northwest corner of Spain’s beautiful countryside, just a short ten-minute drive from the historical port city of A Coruña, lies one of the most extraordinary and sweet-tasting pastry shops in the region. Dulces Sueños, meaning Sweet Dreams in English, certainly lives up to its namesake, offering tantalising treats that tease the taste buds before delivering exceptional flavour. As LUXlife takes a look back at some of 2019’s highlights, discover what made this Spanish pastry shop so wonderful. Having already secured success in 2019 by winning in LUXlife’s Restaurant and Bar Awards, expectations remain understandably high for the team at Dulces Sueños. However, the success has acted as a catalyst for even greater things. Since being awarded the Best Artisan Bakery in North West Spain, Dulces Sueños has continued to deliver outstandingly flavourful sweet treats including cupcakes, biscuits, pies, and pastries. Delicate yet delicious, each tasty delicacy is treated with the utmost care to ensure it remains the zenith of patisserie mastery, whilst using only the finest ingredients from local commerce. One of the most outstanding pastry and coffee shops in the region, Dulces Sueños offers a veritable smorgasbord of rich cakes, exquisite pastries, and a myriad of other spectacular treats. As well as the remarkable selection of ready-made treats, the team can put their expert skills and culinary craftsmanship to use in creating custom-made treats for any client. Each cake or biscuit in Dulces Sueños’ wide array can be completely customised to the customer’s liking, varying toppings and flavours to ensure a personalized experience unlike any other. Throughout 2019, the focus for Dulces Sueños has remained squarely on not forgetting the essence or soul of the business. As the year has progressed, this soul has become even more present in the form of its family corner where parents and children can enjoy the sweet-tasting treats together in a space that is all their own. It is not just families that benefit from the personalized service that Maria and the team offer, as all of the staff take great pride in ensuring that every guest enjoys a wholesome, happy and fulfilling experience. For those more discerning cake connoisseurs in search of a treat that would command a Paul Hollywood handshake, Dulces Sueños’ cakes are simply unbeatable. Flavours come together seamlessly into an amalgamation of flavour that makes every mouthful seem even better than the last. When at last the fork is put down for the final time, guests have been taken on a rapid whirlwind tour of Spain’s finest artisanal ingredients, and how they come together into a masterfully-realised treat that tastes even better than it looks. Perhaps not the biggest bakery, Dulces Sueños is one of a number of bakeries and cake shops across the Northwest of Spain, but the only one to offer the level of personalized service that it does. Accompanying each and every sweet treat is an equally delicious and fresh drink to enhance the flavour. Guests are made to feel warm and welcome from the first step in the door to the reluctant last one out, and every wonderful moment in between. 2019 has not come without challenges however, and Dulces Sueños’ ability to come through them is a fitting testament to just how successful this beautiful bakery was last year. The perseverance, drive, and dedication to ensure every single client receives nothing but the best in first-class service has seen the bakery achieve even greater levels of success throughout the year, right to the end. As the bakery enters into a new decade, the success will surely continue to come in plenty. However, for Maria and the entire team at Dulces Sueños, the most important goal remains delivering happiness to each client that walks through the door in search of a beautifully sweet treat. As 2020 and beyond beckons, this brilliant bakery will continue to put smiles on the faces of all its guests with every single mouthful.
