The Kägi Shop in Lichtensteig is a must-visit for fans of Swiss chocolate and wafers. Located in the heart of Toggenburg, this shop is dedicated to the famous Kägi brand, known for its delicious chocolate-coated wafers that have been a Swiss favorite for generations.

Stepping into the Kägi Shop, you’re greeted with the irresistible aroma of freshly made chocolate. The store offers a wide selection of Kägi products, including classic Kägi fret, dark and milk chocolate variations, and limited-edition flavors that are not always available in regular stores.

You can sample as many chocolates for free as you like. Or as you can. Whichever comes first...😉

You also have the chance to buy slightly less-than-perfect goods at a reduced price. These second-class products are labeled as "Bruchware" (broken goods). These are Kägi wafers that may have slight visual imperfections but are otherwise perfectly fine in taste and quality.

While the shop does not include a factory tour, you can learn more about Kägi’s history and craftsmanship through displays and informative sections. The brand, which has been making wafers in Lichtensteig since 1934, prides itself on using high-quality ingredients and traditional Swiss recipes to create its signature treats.

Seraina’s Tip: The Kägi store is very close to Äulischlucht. You can easily combine a nature walk through the gorge with some delicious chocolate tastings.
