The Zihlmann bakery was founded in 1990. Viktor and Marlène Zihlmann-Wicki took over the Studer bakery, Lehn, Escholzmatt, and its branch in the village. They wanted to set up their own business. They wanted to make their own decisions, create new things and be independent. They were also looking forward to running a business themselves and managing employees. What started out with six employees has now grown into a flourishing bakery business with 50 employees.

BAKERY / CONDITOREY - FROM PRODUCTION TO OFFER

Much more than just bread is created in our production facilities. Our employees bake and produce with passion. A lot of the work is done by hand and the quality is a testament to traditional craftsmanship. The selection of baked goods, bread, snacks and patisserie in all our stores is huge and very varied. In addition to our house specialties "St. Galler-Brot", "Birräweggä" and "Öpfubirräweggä", our meter sandwiches are particularly popular.

The bakery works with a great deal of love for the craft. The focus has always been on tradition and innovation. The well-coordinated team with many long-standing employees is always able to produce on time and with good quality. 30 apprentices have already completed their training at the Zihlmann bakery.

Fresh bread is baked daily for our stores in the production facilities, which were renovated in 2016, and three Volg branches in Trubschachen, Marbach and Schangnau are also supplied. Deliveries are also made to restaurants, retirement homes, schools, clubs and companies.

Varied, surprising and unusual

In addition to traditional baked goods such as bread and pastries, the Zihlmann bakery also offers delicious seasonal products. At Christmas, the homemade Gritibänze or Christmas cookies are particularly popular. Before Easter, on the other hand, Easter bunnies are traditionally baked with great attention to detail. Last but not least, the patisserie, cakes and the well-known "Öpfubirrewegge" are also very popular.

When the Zihlmann bakery was founded, the popular sandwiches, which were completely unknown at the time, were also created. Today, the Zihlmann bakery produces a huge selection of sandwiches, the meter sandwich is particularly popular, a popular snack or for birthday parties.
