Dulcería Antonio
About
On Tenerife, Dulcería Antonio sits at Cam. de La Sierra, 4, 38310 La Orotava, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, in the historic northern town of La Orotava. The setting places it among the steep streets and old houses of the town, well away from the coastal resort strip.
The confectionery is known for its sweets and traditional preparations, and the 4.7 out of 5 average across 128 reviews points to a following built on consistent quality. First-time visitors can expect a counter of handmade items rather than a large retail floor, with the kind of produce that travels well as a gift or a souvenir of the island.
Reaching La Orotava means a drive from Puerto de la Cruz on the north coast, or a longer run from Santa Cruz and La Laguna further east, while the southern resorts of Costa Adeje, Playa de las Américas and Los Cristianos lie across the island by motorway. Gofio, a toasted grain flour, is used in island breads, stews and desserts, and it appears in the sweet repertoire alongside more familiar ingredients.
Spanish is the main language, spoken with a distinctive Canarian accent and vocabulary, which is useful when asking about specific items at the counter. The archipelago is volcanic, and Tenerife's Mount Teide is the highest peak in Spain, a backdrop visible from much of the northern side of the island.
