Kaisers gute Backstube

“Aromas of freshly baked bread,” I murmur, “a symphony for the senses.” We stand before Kaisers Gute Backstube, a Freiburg institution. Kaisers Gute Backstube isn’t just a bakery. It’s a family legacy, a testament to three generations of dedication to their craft. Ernst and Frieda Kaiser laid the first stones of this empire in 1948. They took over a small bakery in Schallstadt-Wolfenweiler. Their son, Wolfgang, and his wife, Waltraud, inherited this passion. They expanded the business in 1979. They opened the first Kaisers Gute Backstube branch in Schallstadt-Mengen. This marked the beginning of an expansion. Now, Birgit Kaiser, their granddaughter, leads the company with Gottfried Faller. Kaisers Gute Backstube has blossomed. It now boasts 44 locations across the region. The company employs around 500 people. The headquarters reside in Ehrenkirchen, near Freiburg. Kaisers Gute Backstube is more than just a business. It’s a community hub. It employs individuals from 45 different nations. The bakery prides itself on its commitment to quality and sustainability. They use locally sourced, organic ingredients whenever possible. Their bread is entirely organic. The grain is supplied by regional farmers and milled fresh daily. Kaisers Gute Backstube even received the prestigious “Marktkieker” award in 1994 for its innovation and marketing. They have also been recognized by “Der Feinschmecker” as one of Germany’s best bakeries. The Kaisers Gute Backstube story is a delicious blend of tradition, innovation, and community spirit. It is a must-visit for anyone seeking an authentic taste of Freiburg.
