Our trip to Garmisch would not have been complete without our pretzel making experience with Jayd. She did an amazing job from start to finish. She provided us the history of Bavarian pretzel making and thoroughly went through the pretzel making process. She kept us entertained and provided a step by step hands on experience. Our pretzels were amazing and we cannot wait to make them at home. All Things Garmisch is an excellent company. They communicated very well during the booking process and were very responsive to all our questions.Posted on Google![]()

Visiting from the United States. Took a Bavarian pretzel making class with Jade. Great presentation and instructions by Jade. A number of different drinks you could purchase while you were making your pretzels. We had a great time. Came away with three pretzels. A number of different options for toppings made our pretzels unique. Jade was also very kind as I was not feeling well and walked me to the apothecary to speak with the pharmacist for appropriate medication. I would highly recommend this class and believe that any other classes they add in the future will be excellent.Posted on Google![]()

An amazing experience. My mom and I booked the Pretzel Making Experience and had a lot of fun. We got to prepare and bake our own pretzels, and our instructor lead us through the whole process, while also teaching us a bit about the history of pretzels. The place is very well located in Garmisch. All in all highly recommended :)Posted on Google![]()

Awesome experience for families, we went to the class with our 5 year old son and he absolutely loved it! I was worried beforehand that he’d get bored but Jayde made the class so interesting for him, she is amazing with kids and put him at ease almost straight away! The whole experience got our son really excited about cooking (which he wasn’t previously). Plus, the food we created was absolutely 10/10 delicious!Posted on Google![]()

We did a 2-hour Pretzel making tour with my family (6 adults and 1 toddler) and it was SO MUCH FUN. Jade was an incredible teacher and not only did she know her stuff regarding all things pretzel, she was INCREDIBLE with our toddler (helping him, keeping him engaged, and even preparing him a delightful chocolate milk while the adults drank our beers). Would recommend this interactive session to everyone that visits the Garmisch region. It was super fun. Oh, and I forgot to mention the pretzels were delicious!Posted on Google![]()

We had such a fantastic time at this new spot! The team was incredibly friendly and we learned so much about all things pretzels — from the baking process to the creative flavor pairings. The highlight of the night was definitely the amazing variety of toppings and dips — sweet, savory, and everything in between! Each bite was delicious and made our evening truly unforgettable. If you’re looking for something fun, unique, and downright tasty, this is the place to be!
