Finnish Cakes
& Tea
Take a delicious break from sightseeing with handmade cakes, savoury pastries and a carefully chosen pot of tea.

A coffee break worth slowing down for
In Finland, a café visit is a small everyday ritual. At Cajsan Helmi, it comes with the scent of our own patisserie, a generous tea list and the atmosphere of a historic Helsinki landmark.

Made by hand, served with care
Our display brings together handmade cakes, sweet pastries and savoury favourites. The selection changes with the seasons, giving every visit something new to discover.
Choose what catches your eye, then settle in and enjoy your own unrushed Finnish café moment.

Find a tea for your mood
Our tea list ranges from familiar classics to fragrant discoveries. Ask our team for a recommendation, pair your pot with a pastry and let the historic rooms set the pace.
