History, Modernism and the Real Mallorcan Ensaïmada at Forn Fondo
Since 1742, Forn Fondo has been one of the best spots for Mallorcan baked goods in Palma. Located in a Belle Époque modernist building, it stands out for its artisanal ensaïmadas with the Protected Geographical Indication ‘IGP Ensaïmada de Mallorca’. It fuses tradition with innovation to offer over twenty varieties of the typical Mallorcan pastry.
The ensaïmada is most popular product at Forn Fondo. The classic plain ensaïmada and angel hair ensaïmadas are especially popular, and there are also novel varieties such as apricot, sobrassada, dark chocolate and orange or dulce de leche. Made using top-quality ingredients and artisanal techniques, they all have the certified ‘IGP Ensaïmada de Mallorca’ label, guaranteeing their authenticity and distinct flavour. The bakery uses age-old recipes that have been passed down through four generations of the Llull family, and continues to use traditional methods.
The current building dates back to 1911 and retains original modernist elements that reflect the history of the location. Other available treats include artisanal chocolates, creative cakes and typical desserts such as robiols and cremadillos, all of which have led to their fame as an iconic shop from the Balearic Islands.
The quality of its baked goods has made Forn Fondo a top spot for both Palma locals and visitors looking to take a piece of Mallorca’s tradition home with them.
