Anecdote
Twenty-five years ago, before Daniel Durig set up his artisanal production of chocolate, the beautiful building dating from the beginning of the last century on Avenue d’Ouchy housed the offices of the cantonal bank. Daniel Durig is fond of saying that he has filled the bank vaults with chocolates as he didn’t succeed in finding gold!
