Royal Delights: Hüppen and Queen Hortense Bonaparte

For generations the delightful treats known as Hüppen have been cherished in the quaint town of Gottlieben, in Thurgau with a history dating back to 1251. Queen Hortense Bonaparte savored the Gaufrettes” from Gottlieben during her stay at Arenenberg Castle from 1817 to 1837 passing on her love for these delights to her son the future French Emperor Napoleon III.

Situated along the shores of Lake Constance in Gottlieben, Switzerland the Hüppenmanufaktur crafts some of the exquisite and flavorsome crepes that are truly one of a kind. These delicate treats continue to be meticulously handmade with precision and care of the art of fine Havana cigars. The attention to detail and craftsmanship, in their production is truly remarkable.

Each individual Gottlieber Hüppe is then lovingly filled with fine, homemade gourmet fillings or first-class Swiss chocolate. This is followed by careful, manual packaging, piece by piece. These fillings, which are made from only the best ingredients and some of which have been awarded gold prizes, are composed and produced exclusively in Gottlieben.

In the “Gottlieber Sweets & Coffee”, visitors have the opportunity to purchase all the delicious Gottlieber specialties such as Hüppen, cocoa almonds, truffles and chocolate. In an inviting ambience, guests can enjoy cozy moments on the beautiful lakeside terrace, accompanied by a refreshing beer, champagne or an exquisite glass of wine.
