Deventer Koekwinkel
Deventer Koekwinkel (Bussink)
A shop in a historic building on the Brink selling Deventer koek, with a café and tearoom attached, a signature souvenir of the city.
Deventer koek is made from a medieval recipe with candied orange peel. Today it is baked only by the Bussink factory, while its predecessor bakery was registered with the city's bakers' guild in 1593. The shop is at Brink 84, in a protected building from about 1850 on the main square, next to the tourist information office and the Oude Waag. The front of the shop sells the original koek, the Dickens cake with apple and cinnamon, honey-flavored koek, ginger koek and small bite-sized packs. Behind it is a cozy café-tearoom where you can taste samples with coffee.
