"I Dolci di Irma" is a little gem nestled in the mountains of Valbruna. As soon as you enter, you're greeted by the irresistible aroma of freshly baked pastries and an atmosphere reminiscent of home and tradition. The atmosphere is warm and meticulously crafted, with wood, warm colors, and decorations that make you feel like you're in a corner of an Alpine fairytale.
The variety of desserts is impressive: fragrant strudels, soft and delicious buchteln, cakes of every kind (the wild berry ones are truly exquisite), crumbly biscuits, fragrant tarts, and homemade jams. Each product is handcrafted with fresh ingredients, many of which are local, and you can taste the difference from the first bite. The portions are generous and the prices are more than fair, especially considering the quality: a slice of cake costs around €2.50-3.00, and jams between €4.50 and €6.
The service is generally friendly, although on occasion I felt a bit rushed in answering questions, especially during peak hours. A written menu would help you choose more quickly from all the delicacies available, avoiding having to ask for everything verbally.
Details aside, this pastry shop is a destination in itself. It's worth traveling a few extra kilometers just to stop here for breakfast or a revitalizing snack after a hike in the mountains. A slice of cake, a herbal tea or coffee, and the view of the Julian Alps outside the window: that's all you need to feel happy.
I highly recommend trying it, and be warned... after the first visit, it becomes a regular stop!

A very quaint and welcoming little place. We went there on the recommendation of a friend and will always be happy to return. Even when there's a long wait due to the crowds, their desserts make you forget everything else! The options available for purchase as souvenirs and gifts are fun and well-chosen.

I come here every year when I'm staying in Tarvisio or just passing through.
The pastries are always fresh (yesterday the Buchtel was still warm) and the atmosphere is relaxing. The bathroom is very clean. Parking is available further ahead on the left, up there's a dirt road. The ladies are very kind.

I've been to this pastry shop and I have to say it's a real gem. From the first moment, you feel a welcoming, family atmosphere. The staff is exceptionally kind and friendly: always smiling, ready to offer advice and chat, which makes the experience even more enjoyable.
But it's not just the hospitality that makes the difference. The desserts are exquisite, carefully prepared with top-quality ingredients.
This is a place definitely worth stopping by. Ideal for a relaxing breakfast, a delicious afternoon snack, or a sweet treat to take home. I'll definitely be back!

In the heart of Valbruna lies this little corner of paradise, where desserts and cakes are the order of the day and captivate you with their consistently delicious, even divine, flavor. If you're in the area, stop by Irma's; it's totally worth it, and it won't make a dent in your wallet.

We went here for dessert: an excellent place and truly amazing desserts!
Be careful with the hours on Google, because they're wrong: the place is always open from 8:00 am to 6:00 pm, except on Mondays, when it's closed.
Highly recommended if you want to enjoy a good dessert!
