Founded in 1685 as a beeswax candle factory for the local pilgrimage church, the Metzer Lebkuchen quickly developed into a seal of quality for the Viennese Lebkuchen world. The original Lebkuchen has been made in the same way for centuries with a secret recipe made exclusively from pure Austrian bee honey, rye and wheat flour and raw sugar. The dough goes through a delicate and complex process where it is “cooked” and then stored with a maturation of up to 6 months, similar to that of wine or sourdough. This makes the original Lebkuchen naturally durable, soft and particularly juicy.
Metzger & Söhne pralines have also been made in the same way for centuries. Layers of soft Lebkuchen filled with delicate marzipan and natural fruit and nut fillings encased in chocolate. The pralines range from marzipan mixes: orange, pistachio or hazelnut to fruit jellies and jams.
