In 1825 Fryderyk Chopin visited Toruń. Reporting on the visit in a letter to a friend, he repeatedly wrote that he was most impressed there with the Toruńskie Pierniki® – the gingerbread of Toruń. Fabryka Cukiernicza Kopernik, the only heir to over 700 years of tradition of gingerbread making in Toruń offers high-quality gingerbread, whose exceptional and inimitable taste is admired all over the world.
“No more can I write to you about Toruń in a letter, perhaps I could tell you more in person, let me only mention that I’ve been under the greatest impression that is spell of the gingerbread.”
Fryderyk Chopin in a letter to Jan Matuszyński, 1825.
