Ciao a tutti,
Sono un americano che vive in Germania e ho sviluppato una terribile brama di latticini vecchio stile. Ho guardato online per vedere se sono realizzati qui o se c’è un equivalente, ma non ho visto nulla e il mio ragazzo tedesco non ha idea di cosa sto parlando. Se c’è qualcuno che sa qualcosa, per favore dimmelo!
(Per i tedeschi: sono menti super cremose/morbide simili a gesso che ottieni alla fine del tuo pasto in un ristorante)

Never heard of that.
never heard of that.
try worldofsweets or other candy online stores, maybe even amazon may have some of them. good luck!
I don’t think, I ever saw those here in Candy stores/aisles.
But if you want soft minty sweets, there are some available in Germany
There is this white/pink minty Candy Pfefferminzbruch and there are Bremer Kluten, which are white with a littlebit of Choclate. It’s soft and minty, they’re basically fondant with mint.
You might try those.
I’m Canadian. But I know what you mean, we had those too.
You won’t find the exact same thing, but try the Opifera Emder Kissen (pink package). They are pretty close IMO. Wilhelmina mints (Dutch though) are similar. Bremer Kluten are different, more sugary-sticky than ‘powdery’, and bigger, but also satisfying.
In general, mint is a less loved flavour here, that also has a lot of detractors (‘it’s toothpaste’), so it’s not as widespread. You’ll find options though, and ‘after eight’ stuff is common. Mint schnapps are also common, but may be more of a northern thing.
What I miss a lot is wintergreen stuff. I always stock up when I go home, as it’s just not a thing here.
If you’d like to make them yourself, I saved this tiktok a few weeks ago with the recipe in the caption: https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8haN9NF/
See if you can order from the UK, like an online food store or something, there’s at least a couple of them, I think. We have buttermints here, you can usually find them in bags alongside the usual traditional humbugs, sherbet lemons, mint imperials, etc.
I haven’t tried them but these look like they might be similar: https://www.viba.de/viba/zuckerkissen/mint-kissen
Viba has physical stores so you could check if there’s one nearby.
They have them at ReWe, I bought a package a week ago. I will check the brand name when I go shopping again. They are the peppermint after dinner mint variety so white and pick, not the colorful mix like the kind available in the US though.
