Leaves, lake, and fragrant biscuits: autumn to savor

9 September 2025

Autumn on Lake Garda: the perfect season for a sweet break. Autumn on Lake Garda is a true spectacle of nature: the hills are tinged with warm hues, the local wind, the Luganott, brings with it the rustling of leaves, and the water reflects golden sunsets that seem like paintings.

It’s a season that invites you to slow down, to enjoy strolls through the villages and vineyards, to indulge in moments of calm far from the summer frenzy. In this unique setting, an autumn snack becomes a ritual of pleasure and authenticity. It’s not just a break from the day, but an experience that combines flavor, conviviality, and atmosphere. An afternoon in front of a steaming cup and a tray of fragrant biscuits is a gift of happiness, reminiscent of tradition and home.

Artisanal biscuits that evoke the scents of autumn and select herbal teas.

Entering La Fenice during autumn is like crossing the threshold into a world of scents and memories. Notes of cinnamon, walnuts, honey, and chocolate waft from the bakery, heralding the magic of seasonal desserts. Our creations express just this: shortbread cookies, including vegan ones, reminiscent of warm snacks by the fire; classic cantucci enriched with crunchy almonds and hazelnuts; chocolate biscuits that instantly transport you to childhood. Each dessert is designed to enhance our autumn beverages: full-bodied teas, fragrant herbal teas, or a creamy artisanal hot chocolate that warms your hands and heart. Autumn snacks on Lake Garda thus become a complete sensory experience, capable of intertwining flavor, aroma, and warmth. Also, starting in October, try our classic Turbiana Twist hot infusion with Turbiana grape must, just in time for the grape harvest. You can also find a wide selection of teas and herbal teas: from delicate white tea to flavored black tea, as well as classic English Breakfast loose-leaf teas and Earl Grey, as well as caffeine-free rooibos, chamomile, and mint and red berry herbal teas.

A pastry shop as a gourmet refuge on Lake Garda.

Our La Fenice pastry shop on Lake Garda isn’t just a place to buy sweets, but a welcoming space where you can stop, soak up a family atmosphere, and rediscover the pleasures of the little things. After a stroll along the lakeshore or a visit to the surrounding villages, treating yourself to a snack of artisanal cookies means experiencing the region through taste. It’s an invitation to immerse yourself in the beauty of autumn, to transform a simple afternoon into a special moment, and to take home memories steeped in sweetness and craftsmanship. Because sometimes it really doesn’t take much: a tray of fragrant cookies, a hot drink, and the spectacle of gently falling leaves to remind us how magical and unforgettable autumn can be.
