| One more thing! I guess I should also ask about cinnamon. My husband loves it in all sorts of baked goods - especially cinnamon rolls - and he has not found any pastries here in canton Vaud made with enough cinnamon that the flavor is distinct. Any suggestions, or is the flavor just not popular here? | |

I've spent 10 years searching for a good cinnamon roll in Switzerland, without much success; the closest I've found are the Zimtschnecken at Cafe Brandli in Wädenswil (ZH - so that doesn't really help you out in Vaud
) - decent, but still not quite the right texture...
Cinnamon baked goods (as we know them in the US) are indeed hard to find here - I'm guessing the flavor isn't all that popular. So brush up your pastry making skills.
Also - the cinnamon I've found in Coop and Migros and even Schwarzenbach is too mild for me. I like a strong cinnamon so I bring back Penzey's Vietnamese whenever I visit the States.
Happy baking!
(Reading this thread, I'm starting to get that ol' cinnamon roll craving again. And here I thought I had conquered that particular demon... Will I ever integrate successfully, and be satisfied with Hazelnuss Schnecken?
