Tips & Advice

  • Families can drop in spontaneously in the afternoon, but arrange a reservation in advance for a Kita, school, or larger group.
  • Allow about 45 minutes for baking and decorating, and bring a container if you want to carry the cookies home safely.
  • Ask the team about allergies before baking, and check the on-site allergen notice because the dough contains butter and the cookies are brushed with egg.
  • An accompanying adult must stay with each child during the activity, so plan to remain with the young bakers throughout the visit.

Special Events & Promotions

  • Accompanying adults pay nothing and must stay with the children.
  • Kitas, schools and larger groups need an advance reservation; one group appointment is available per day for a Kita or school group.
  • The bakery can be booked by prior arrangement for a company Christmas party; one company-party appointment is available per day.
