Easter customs have a long tradition even in a bakery.
Special breads and rolls are being prepared for this event.

In spring when the sun gets warmer again bread in the form of a sun was baked by old cultures. This way the popular 'Osterpinze' bread developed over centuries and nowadays ranks among the most popular Easter customs far and away.
