La Campana Deli

If there is anything that can match the exquisite tapas in Seville bars, without doubt, it is the wonderful sweets sold in their confectioner's, some of them like this one "La Campana", a locale decorated exquisitely and with good taste.

The confectioner's is vintage, and is deeply rooted in Seville tradition, being that it was founded in 1885 and has always been regarded as a meeting place both in winter or at its terrace in the summer.

In La Campana you will find a variety of sweets and turrón's all hand-made, delicious meringues, Yemas sevillana's (pastry made exclusively with egg yolks and a syrup that is cooked with lemon juice and cinnamon to reduce it until it's a dense mixture), almonds, as well as traditional sweets at certain times of year, such as kings cake, or French toast topped with cinnamon and sugar or golden syrup at Easter in addition to sweets in the form of capuchins (Nazarenes) or thrones made of chocolate.

In plain kilometre zero Seville is the confectioner's La Campana. It is a beautiful locale, decorated tastefully and in a modern style, where the smallest details are well manicured.

See the scales, beautiful, or the candy booth, a true wonder. Furthermore, all delicacies are handmade from scratch.

Among their specialties are polvorón (soft shortbread), meringues and the yemas sevillana’s (small pastries). Also available are cortadillos (lumps of sugar), tea biscuits, turrón’s, tarts, ice cream, candies, chocolates and a long list of sweet delicacies.

I highly recommend the tocinillos de cielo (pudding made with egg yolk and syrup), the best I've ever tasted.

Good place to grab a quick coffee, since the premises are very small and the terrace is always full.

The sweets are very good although a little expensive, but they do take food stamps. If you get there early you may be able to sit on the terrace for coffee and read the newspaper.
