The story of Twistcafe began in 2014, inspired by our first markets and festivals. The aroma of freshly baked chimney cakes, the first customer lines, and a dream slowly turning into reality laid the foundations of a brand with great ambitions.
In 2015, we opened our first stand in the Futurum shopping center in Brno. There, we realized how much people truly loved what we were doing. The enthusiasm of our first fans confirmed that we wanted to continue creating chimney cakes and bringing joy through honest flavors.
A major breakthrough came in 2016 when we opened our first brick-and-mortar store and introduced ice cream in a chimney cake. As the first in the Czech Republic to combine these two elements, we created a trend that quickly became a phenomenon.
Rapid growth followed in 2017, so we developed our own software to manage operations, sales, and staffing. This allowed us to scale efficiently and without chaos.
In 2018, we expanded beyond the Czech Republic by opening our first branch in Austria, marking the beginning of our European journey.
Despite many challenges, we reached an incredible milestone in 2020 over ten million customers served. In 2022, we took quality even further by starting to roast our own coffee, gaining full control from bean to cup.
Today, in 2025, Twistcafe operates in eight European countries with more than 100 locations. Over thirty million people have already tasted our chimney cakes and our journey is far from over.
