Bischofberger - Appenzeller Bärli-Biber Tradition

Bischofberger - 60 years of tradition making this most renown Swiss pastry in the Canton Appenzell - the Biber. Children and adults alike have been enjoying this delicacy from the Appenzell since the 16th century, when some bakers combined honey-dough with a nut filling and embossed the pastry.

Visit Bischofberger when you are near the town of Appenzell. Bischofberger are located in the town of Weissbad AI just a short drive from Appenzell. The newly refurbished showroom 2 years ago, and the art of making the pastry tour are truly worth it.

Don’t miss out some of the sites near Weissbad such as the Ebenalp, reachable by cable car from Wasserauen, and a short walk down the hill to have a lunch at the Aescher Berggasthaus. And for the more experienced hikers a walk down to Seealpsee is highly recommended. There is also the highly recommended hike near Weissbad, via Brülisau to the 2 lakes Sämtisersee and Fälensee. Truly magnificent sites and Swiss nature at its best.
