La Boulangerie de Salavaux (Salavaux)

Handmade

In the past, the bakers of the Broye used to bake small cakes with the bread dough of the first baking and fill them with cream and salt. The farmhands and maids loved this delicacy, called "salé" (salt cake), which they ate in the morning on their way to the dairy.

Tastes changed over time and bakers adapted; improving their recipes with sugar and butter. This cake conquered the Vaudois who called it "salée au sucre" (salt cake with sugar).

In Vully, each family and each village has its own recipe of nidlekuchen, which is still part of the feast and whose recipe is handed down from mother to daughter. Our Vully cake is still baked according to the recipe that is over 120 years old.

In the post-war period, the people of Neuchâtel who had " watchmaker vacations " came to camp on our beautiful beach in Salavaux, and very quickly learned to appreciate our delicious cake, they called it " le délicieux gâteau du Vully" (the fine Vully cake). Father of our predecessor, Alfred Friedrich, adopted this expression and had it printed on his cake boxes....
