This traditional cake comes from Südtirol (South Tyrol), the German-speaking Alpine region in northern Italy where Austrian and Italian food cultures meet. In this mountainous region, buckwheat has been used for centuries as a staple ingredient, valued for its hearty, nutty flavour and naturally gluten-free qualities. Lingonberries, which grow wild in the local forests, have long been paired with buckwheat in Alpine baking for their gently tart, refreshing note.
Our Südtiroler Buchweizentorte, the gluten free buckwheat cake, is light yet satisfying, with a delicate, nutty crumb that’s beautifully balanced by two layers of bright, fruity lingonberries. It’s the kind of cake you might enjoy in a mountain café after a long walk in the Alps – simple, honest, and quietly indulgent.
Naturally gluten free and full of Alpine character, this gluten free buckwheat cake is perfect if you’re looking for something a little different: not overly sweet, wonderfully aromatic, and deeply rooted in tradition. A true taste of Südtirol – rustic, elegant, and utterly moreish.

Absolutely amazing cakes with the
"Absolutely amazing cakes with the real taste of Central Europe! Very different from the cakes in the UK so I advise people to try them! Our favourite is the Esterhazy torte which is very rich and you cannot get anywhere else in the UK. The just added Sudtiroler is amazing. Whilst travelling on the area I never had the chance to have some but I am going to stick with this here anyway."
