Founded in Düsseldorf in 2001, Backwerk was Europe's first self-service bakery and in the past decade has quicky expanded to nearly 200 franchises across five countries (not to mention having its business concept copied by countless others). The Ljubljana shop follows already popular outlets in Maribor and Novo Mesto, and proves that Slovenes are willing to pay a premium for tasty high-quality baked goods - although its location next to the city's busiest bus stop probably doesn't hurt either.
