About this audio guide
This guide to Heini Conditorei on Falkenplatz in Lucerne follows the Heini family from one nineteen fifty-seven confectionery into a multi-generation institution, founded by Hans and Annelies Heini and carried on by sons Hans and Bruno. It crosses into Zug, where a pastry chef spent the nineteen tens and twenties perfecting one of Switzerland's most fiercely guarded cake recipes. You will hear how two very different confectionery families' fortunes end up tangled together. Look for that particular cake in the display case here on Falkenplatz.
