Bonbonetti comes up with a wide selection of Christmas candies
This year, Bonbonetti has launched a number of new products, such as Bombonetti Szaloncukor Selection, a wide range if special Christmas candies.
In the year of 1868 the biggest chocolate factory of Hungary was founded by an illustrious confectioner from Magdeburg. He spent his apprenticeship years in Prague and Hamburg, where he learnt the art of making candies and confectioneries. Attracted by the booming economy and business opportunities in Hungary, he came to Pest in 1866, after receiving overtures from his colleague Károly Náder inviting him to hire the workshop of confectioner Ferenc Nagy that was located in today’s Szentkirályi Street and even bought it later in 1870.
Likewise all the other confectioners’ products at that time, his candies were hand-made. In this period Hungarian confectioners were used to cooking sugar until it was burnt in caldrons in open fire. His company was the first in Hungary to introduce the technology of making confectionery in closed caldrons with steam in order to reach the best quality that established his business success. He erected his family concern even with an own furnace that turned into the first Hungarian furnace-equipped candy plant.
In 1883 he extended his enterprise with a steam-driven chocolate factory introducing large scale chocolate production in Hungary. He was a man of ideas to adjust the missing conditions: in absence of refridgeration perishable products were chilled on marble tables in the northern basement of the building. Francis Joseph awarded him a cross of distinction for his merit in the country’s industrial progress. He was one of the first manufacturers who was permitted to illustrate his products’ packaging with the Hungarian coat-of-arms.
The secret of his success resided in the company’s ability to offer low-priced products prepared with such a great care that made them well-known to a wide range of consumers within a very short time. Even master confectioner Henrik Kugler belonged to his customers buying chocolate covering mass from the company.
