Hofbäckerei Edegger-Tax
Graz
Since 1569, Edegger-Tax has been shaping Graz's baking culture. In the bakery in Hofgasse, bread, pastries, flour dishes, and fine baked goods are still made today with a lot of handwork. The historic wooden portal with the gilded double-headed eagle reminds of the time when it was the imperial and royal court bakery.
Motto: Baking like in the past
Since 1569, the Edegger-Tax bakery has been part of Graz's city history. The distinctive wooden portal in Hofgasse, with its gilded double eagle, recalls the time when the bakery supplied the imperial court table and held the title of k. u. k. court baker.
To this day, the family business is run with great closeness to traditional baking craftsmanship. While Graz is still asleep, the workday begins in the bakery. Doughs are kneaded, allowed to rest, and then processed by hand. Thus, Salzstangerln, Handkaiser, bread, and pastries are created, as well as traditional fine baked goods.
Among the assortment are Panthertatzen with pumpkin seeds, Hetschepetsche with rose hip jam, Sissi-Busserln, and Kaiserzwieback. Many recipes draw on historical models, while the bakery also develops its own breads and baked goods for gastronomy and delicatessen.
With Matthias Edegger, the ninth generation is already working in the family business. This way, Edegger-Tax remains not only a piece of Graz's history but also a lively craft business in the heart of the historic old town of the Graz experience region.
