Original hand pressed Czech Krumlov gingerbread

Český Krumlov Original

The Old Bohemian gingerbread is made in our bakery to the original recipe from the 16th century. It is hand pressed into wooden molds professionally carved from fine fruitwoods which had to be carefully chosen. The particular time and temperature of baking give the gingerbread its colour.

Our gingerbread is made of high quality South Bohemian honey, flour, spices and it is edible. In the past gingerbread was used in different ways. People decorated their home interiors, sweetened porridge or served it as a dessert dunked into hot drinks. Nowadays hand pressed gingerbread is a work of art rich in symbols cut into various shapes reminding us the colourful history of mankind. It is lavishly decorated and can be used to make our home smell nice because of the predominant flavours of spices.
