The "Original Linzer Torte"

300 years of tradition

The “Linzer Torte” is the world’s oldest known cake and was documented by name as early as 1696. Who gave the cake its name, or invented it will remain a secret for ever. The oldest recipe derives from a 300-year-old cookery book. Butter, almonds, sugar, flour and fine spices were used then for the dough and these are still the main ingredients today.  

The “Original Linzer Torte” has been produced at the Jindrak company with great care and skill for over 80 years. With the “Original Linzer Torte” from the Jindrak confectionery, you and your friends can enjoy a taste of Austrian culinary delights.   

As in the days of my grandfather, we continue to bake according to traditional recipes and thus the use of butter and cream is a matter of course. Our products are not deep-frozen, but are produced freshly for our customers every day. The Leo Jindrak confectionery is the home of the “Original Linzer Torte” and we bake over 95,000 cakes, which are then packed attractively and dispatched all over the world as a popular souvenir or company gift.
