I love your butter braided bread, which is made at the Migros Hofmatt in Kriens. Unfortunately, the quality hasn't been satisfactory for about three weeks now. The bread tastes like cardboard and is very pale. I'm seriously considering NOT buying it at Migros anymore.
Hello GurkenTomaten, thank you very much for your message. What a shame that you’re no longer experiencing those familiar moments of enjoyment! We’re happy to confirm that there have been no changes to the recipe. If you notice a strange taste or unusual color again, please let us know the date and location of purchase and send us photos showing any visual differences. You can do this publicly on Migipedia or privately via this contact form. Thank you in advance for your help. Best regards, your M-Infoline Team

Dear Migi. Until about a year ago, your braid was one of my favorite Sunday braids, so to speak, but in the meantime you must have changed something in the recipe, because your braid is now almost inedible, dry, old and more like toast!!!! What a shame, what's the reason for that?
Unfortunately, I can agree with you. The Migros plait used to be a highlight, but now I buy my plait at Aldi or Lidl.
I buy it new from Denner or make it myself again😉😁🤗
Hello hot-cruz, thank you for your message. We're sorry that the plait no longer tastes so good. Many of our recipes and raw materials have remained unchanged for years and are very popular with our customers. In our stores with an in-house bakery, we make the butter plaits fresh several times a day so that we can ensure optimum freshness. For consumers who shop in a branch without an in-house bakery, we can offer loaves that are delivered to the branches pre-baked and baked on site. Can you tell us which branch you shop in? That way we can inform the cooperative. Best regards, your M-Infoline team

Hello M-Infoline team, sorry to hear about your problem, but it's not much use now. I don't think it's very useful now, but the braid has very strange properties. Dry, rubbery, far too light and stale in taste. As already mentioned, there have obviously been some changes to the recipe for all Migros Zopf varieties. My example, Bärner Ankezüpfe (Bern-Marktgasse) or Butterzopf IP-Suiss (Kleinwabern) and actually for some months now also other locations Aglo Bern, as well as in Shoppyland, have all become very similar. Maybe it's because they use strange ingredients like clarified butter and not pure butter, or because they use glucose and milk powder. What do I know? Only one thing is clear. For me, the best bread in Switzerland, which was also a competitor to all bakers, is no longer a reason to go to Migros. As with the "Nutella scandal", I, or rather we, would simply like to know why this is the case. Handmade or not - obviously doesn't matter. So it really sounds like an excuse. Please Dear M-Infoline team member, a well-founded answer would really be worth a lot. Why has Migros destroyed their braid, my Züpfe, in the last few months to such an extent that it reminds me of a petrol station braid? One that I've been carrying in my hiking rucksack for 7 hours...? Is it possible that we will ever get the good quality back? Where can/must we complain? ;) And what is Migros' reason for dropping the quality like this? Unfortunately, it doesn't make sense to me. Merci.
We regret that you are not satisfied with the quality of our plaits. The recipe for the plaits has remained unchanged for years. During production, there may be slight variations in the braids, which are all handmade. Influences such as the weather, room temperature, kneading time, dough resting time, etc. have an impact on the final braided product. We strive to offer our customers the best possible quality every day by using high-quality raw materials. The responsible employees would be happy to show you how the plait is made in a bakery on site and talk to you personally. To do this, please send us an email to m-infoline@migrosaare.ch with your telephone number and the reference number 20210909-0448. Your M-Infoline team

I think the Migros plait used to be much, much better - a reason to go to Migros! Has the recipe "deteriorated" in recent years?
Hello Herzmensch, we're sorry that the plait no longer tastes so good. However, the recipe for this product has not been changed in recent years. You are welcome to let us know the store where you noticed this. We would then check your tip with the relevant store. Best regards, your M-Infoline team

Are there plaits on offer every day? Are there doughnuts on offer every day?
Hi Bubs, thanks for your post. The braided bread varies from cooperative to cooperative. Basically, fresh plaited bread is available from Thursday. In the GM Aare region, braided bread is available throughout the week. Berliners are always available all year round. Best regards, your M-Infoline team

The tastiest plait ever! No baker can touch it! A Sunday without Migros Zopf = unimaginable! Thank you JOWA bakers

Hello M-Infoline Team
This topic is older, but still interesting.
Funnily enough, Coop only manages to label certain breads with the note "may contain traces of this and that". This probably depends on the baking facility in which the bread is baked.
If you're allergic to nuts, you can't even buy toast at Migros without having a bad feeling. Even the gluten-free AHA stuff doesn't help much.
Perhaps a more precise differentiation would be necessary here and probably also possible, instead of simply writing on every product that it may contain this or that as a precaution.
In this way, an allergy with minor restrictions suddenly becomes a major problem when shopping.
Best regards
Mark
Dear guest
Thank you for your comment.
All JOWA AG breads are labeled "May contain nuts, sesame, soy, eggs".
This note on the packaging indicates a possible contamination with nuts, sesame, soy and eggs, as all these ingredients are stored and processed in the company. As JOWA manufactures both products with and without these ingredients, it is technically unavoidable that some carry-over will occur. The breads that are produced today are of the highest standards in terms of quality and safety. Of course, JOWA cleans the production facilities thoroughly and always tries to minimize the risk. In this respect, standardized company regulations apply, which are regularly checked and adapted. Nevertheless, the possibility of carry-over in the trace area cannot be completely ruled out.
We hope for your understanding and wish you a pleasant day.
Kind regards from the M-Infoline team

The butter plait is actually really great, but as a family with allergies, we really don't have it that easy anymore. This applies not only to the braided loaf, but also to all other Migros breads. This little sentence "may contain traces of nuts" is a real horror for nut allergy sufferers. Especially because of the fact that this is ultimately just a safety measure to cover any impurities. I think it's great that Migros is making an effort and has gluten-free products for allergy sufferers in its range, but in my opinion Migros should also make sure that it doesn't say on every product that it may contain traces of nuts, because that makes shopping less fun. It's a shame that this has become part of everyday life and that it's generally accepted to warn that something might be in it, even if it doesn't contain anything of the sort. It's a bit like writing on a packet of painkillers that it might still contain traces of laxative.
Hello Danny9
Jowa produces around 60 - 80 different types of bread every night, depending on the bread range of the individual Migros cooperative. These fresh breads have to be delivered to all Migros branches from 5.00 a.m. in the morning. In this very short time, breads with different flours and ingredients such as nuts, sesame, soy, etc. are produced on the bread machines. Unfortunately, with so many different breads, it is unavoidable that, despite precautionary measures and cleaning, individual traces of nuts remain on the equipment.
As a food manufacturing company, we are legally obliged to take all necessary measures to prevent contamination. Nevertheless, contamination with individual allergenic ingredients in the various sub-processes of bread production, such as recipe mixing, dough production, baking and packaging lines, cannot be 100% ruled out, meaning that traces of allergenic ingredients can end up in the end products. As we are aware of what such residues can mean for allergy sufferers, this is communicated accordingly on all bread bags. We therefore offer a range of gluten-free AHA products as an alternative.
