In the two years since the food exchange was set up, we have already managed to distribute 29 tonnes of food! A colourful range of

ingredients: from dietary supplements such as rosehip powder or sea buckthorn powder to broken chocolate, cooking wine, coconut milk,

instant coffee, rice, vegetarian mince, various dried fruits, as well as spices and dried mushrooms. But we’ve also been able to put drinks

and biscuits to good use! There’s certainly something for every cook!

Two examples illustrate just what’s possible with our surplus stock:

An executive chef ordered our dark couverture and conjured up a delicious chocolate dessert.

The Quellenhof Foundation, which repackages the raw materials for us, gave its staff a bag of chocolate chunks at Easter

as a thank you for their excellent cooperation.
