Wellington And York Partners: Food Products You Shouldn’t Miss In Switzerland by Nicegal1: 10:33pm On Jan 23, 2019
When people hear about Switzerland, they will immediately think of chocolates and cheese. Switzerland is one of the best places for people who love sweets. Chocolate treats are the most recognized Swiss products. It is also not surprising to see a lot of shops that sell cheese products. Both these goods are great to use for fondue which is a nice snack to share with friends.



While chocolates are definitely some top-notch products that can be bought, there are a lot of other selections that tourists may try and purchase during their visit to the beautiful country. Tourists should not buy chocolate from souvenir shops because it tends to be expensive and not as good as the products sold in chocolatiers and cheesemakers.



To tell the legitimacy of Swiss products, there are specific standards that should be followed by chocolate and cheesemakers in the country. The fundamental process of the food must take place in Switzerland and should have 80 percent of the weight of the raw materials in it. For the industrial products, 60 percent of the manufacturing costs, as well as the training and other manufacturing steps should occur in the country.



Swiss cheese and chocolates
Travelers tend to do their last-minute shopping in souvenir shops and airport kiosks display assortments and merchandises of Swiss-branded chocolates. Supermarkets all over the world are invaded by different Swiss chocolate products. However, the quality and taste may not be the same as the ones sold in chocolatiers that can be found in Zurich or other places in Switzerland. Freshly made chocolate have better taste compared to mass-produced chocolates that are found in grocery and convenience stores.



Swiss chocolates are famous for its rich taste. According to some food review, people love it for the supreme quality and distinct flavors. Even though some of its ingredients such as sugar and cacao beans come from other countries, a legitimate Swiss chocolate should be produced in Switzerland.



The food culture of Switzerland includes amazing cheeses that are mostly made from cow’s milk. Swiss-made cheese is not like American cheese. The Swiss cheese is produced mostly in the Alpine regions. There are different kinds of Swiss cheese. Some are made as soft and buttery, while others are hard melting which is perfect for fondue. The Swiss cuisine includes cheese products in their ingredients such as Appenzeller, Gruyere, and Emmental. Others love putting Raclette cheese on top of their dish.



Switzerland produces about over 450 selections of cheese. Only 1% percent of Swiss cheese is made up of sheep and goat milk, while the majority is made of cow’s milk. Some tourists who visit Zurich or other parts of Switzerland may find cheaper cheese prices compared to other countries.
