Tours will be led by René Bollier, grandson of founders André and Elsbeth. René began his training at age 11 under his family’s supervision and continued his culinary training at some of the top pastry shops in Switzerland. He and his wife Nancy returned to Kansas City in 2002 to lead the family business into the third generation, working to expand the brand nationally while remaining focused on the local community and long-standing tradition of producing only the highest quality confections using old-world methods and family recipes.
