“Lebkuchen” is translated as “gingerbread” in German, but that’s not very correct. The term “gingerbread” sets expectations because it can indeed be used in edible architectures.
And those ubiquitous gingerbread hearts, decorated with your lover’s name, decorated with your lover’s name, and said “iCh liebe dich” – I love you – or just “Greetings from this tweezers Germanic Town”.
The things used to deliver messages or act as cooking Sheetrock are good and good. But even more interesting is a cake filled with honey and spices and baked in essence on top of the communion wafer – in the early days, baking gingerbread was the source of nuns, who found that the communion wafer prevented the crackers from sticking into the pot.
This “lebkuchen” style is literally translated as “honey cake”. Similar batter is baked into small brick shapes, sprinkled with jam, ice ice, and candied fruit. The configuration is also layered with nougat – grated nuts, chocolate and butter in a frosting-like paste – or perhaps layered with marzipan. Round biscuits are a more traditional one that usually comes with a powdered sugar glaze, although they do apply on chocolate and sprinkle with color on top. They may have raisins in them, but they are always sweet.
Bad Aussee is a very traditional riverside town surrounded by glacier-covered mountains. On the main highway, there is a barn with a huge sign with the words “Ausseer lebzelteri. ” (Aussee is the area, while Lebzelterei is the gingerbread factory.) This place makes gingerbread on site, you can view it through the He picture window inside the front door and work hard.

This special gingerbread factory was founded in 1892 by Gustav Lewandovsky, a well-trained pastry chef in Hungary. Lewandovsky placed baked goods in the spa in town. The Victorian and Edwardian European spa culture must be more indulgent than those seeking revitalization of the yoga and juice quick situation.
The salon still with the name Lewandowsky is lovely, but it’s even more fun to see the old gingerbread molds and vintage packaging on display at the roadside stop. It’s also cool to see machines used as a quality production method, huge enamel mixers, stacked baking ovens, and there are many types of gingerbread to choose from.
It’s a roadside attraction, but the snacks are thousands of times more than your biggest skillet in the world or Abraham Lincoln’s second-minded snack. The only downside is that you can eat all the souvenirs before you take them home.
