About the company
Frigyes Stühmer, a master pâtissier originally from Hamburg, was invited to Hungary by a chocolatier from Pest. An extraordinarily skilled craftsman with a keen eye for detail, Stühmer launched a range of quality chocolates from his small patisserie in 1868, and he soon became the pre-eminent chocolate maker in Hungary. With steadily improving living standards, he recognized that chocolate and confectionery have a bright future ahead of them. As such, he played a major role in popularising chocolate – considered a luxury product at the time – and bringing it to a wider audience. Eventually, the traditional brand was brought back to life in 2006 by Mr. Péter Csóll, who purchased the existing Stühmer shop in Eger and acquired the trademark.
