I just moved to Switzerland and I am also new in this Forum
I am mad about baking and decorating cakes and cupcakes. I used to buy lots of baking supply including wilton products (which I love ), but also colored marzipan and fondant, different tools and cutters etc... well I think you get the idea So, I was wondering where you could buy such things? I know that there are some excellent online shops, but I would prefer buying it in a store in Zürich (to avoid shipping costs, but also cause I love to look around). Anyone knows a store?
Also a quick question about sugars, I bake a lot of English recipes which requires Muscovado sugar. Well back in the Netherlands I could buy similar sugars with molasses (called Basterdsuiker there) but I have no clue how it is called here and where to buy it? Maybe you can help me here, too
This is an online store that perhaps you are already familiar with, but I thought I would post the link just in case. They have a lot of stuff, fun stuff as well as some of the real professional stuff.
There's are a couple of threads on EF on brown sugar etc, a common question to new arrivals in Switzerland. Try the search function above, perhaps what you are looking for is something other than the "brown sugar"?
Zurich needs a store with American, French baking supplies and goods! I usually bring flour with me back from Paris. The flour here is not good for fluffy cakes
Oh yes yes, please open one Cause by now I really think that there are no stores around How can that be, in a big city as Zürich?
Also are there any kitchen supply stores? You know, those luxury stores having Kitchen Aids and all those great big brands Just looove to walk around those stores
Didn't you say that you just moved here, and now you are saying how is it Zurich being so big, has no kitchen supply stores? There are. Maybe not what you are used to, but it works for the Swiss.
I was so pleased to see this post. Any information on baking items is great. Does anyone know of a "baking club", as I am a hobby baker and would love to meet with other people to exchange ideas and recipes.
about bakeria: i asked the lady via facebook if it would be possible to come to her place and have a look around. As she stores the stuff in boxes, that won't be possible. But you can order online, give a call and pick up your order by yourself.
Worry no more; since June Back-Art have had our showroom near Kreuzplatz (Zurich) with a selection of our online bestsellers, seasonal and new products, should you wish to see before you buy.
