When I was shopping in Migros Ostermundigen this morning, I could hardly believe my eyes. In the middle of August, with outside temperatures of 32°C, gingerbread was already on sale. Who comes up with such crazy ideas at Migros? Have people completely lost touch with the course of the year and traditions?
Are you trolling or are you from abroad? ä Bärnär Biber is feiiin all year round, het nünt mit Wiehnachte z tue😁 Edit: Berner lebkuchen as a name also works, but applies to both what I mean.
I supplement with Appenzeller and St. Gallerbiberli. They're also available all year round 😄.
It's always there at this time of year... If you don't want it, just don't buy it..in 2-3 weeks it's everywhere with fall products anyway Here at edeka/norma/penny/lidl everything is full of all these fall products....

Traditionally, you can buy gingerbread during the Advent season!

Gingerbread is an autumn cookie, not a Christmas cookie. In addition, as described above, gingerbread is available all year round in other countries (e.g. Holland)... From google: Gingerbread is one of the most popular treats during the Advent season - but it has a long tradition that originally has nothing to do with Christmas. Even today, gingerbread hearts are still sold at folk festivals all year round and are a popular souvenir. https://www.focus.de/finanzen/news/unternehmen/die-moenche-sind-schuld-sie-heissen-jetzt-herbstgebaeck-darum-gibt-es-lebkuchen-und-spekulatius-im-september_id_4920564.html

It's about gingerbread and not Biberli...
What did I get as a child at my very first first August parade in Bern? That's right: a gingerbread with a Bernese bear on it. 😁
Unfortunately, many things are sold all year round and thus lose their specialty; Fasnachtkiechli simply become Herbstkiechli.
Coop always has them too. I don't think that's so bad, as long as it's just them. We also like Biberli all year round.
Hi Bea54, thank you for your inquiry. Our gingerbread season has always started in August. The introduction of seasonal items requires a certain lead time for planning and production, which is why we cannot react spontaneously to every change in the weather. We ask for your understanding. In addition, gingerbread is neither a typical autumn nor Christmas item and is in demand in the Solothurn/Bern region all year round. We hope this explanation is understandable. Kind regards, Lea
