next tip for sweet online shopping:

Yesterday was Valentines’s Day. What do I love most, next to red roses? The petite chocolate called ‘Liliput’ by

Altmann & Kuehne

You will find all kinds and sizes of the most cute chocolate boxes of the world filled with the best confectionary you can imagine.

Established in 1928 Altmann & Kuehne specializes in miniature confectionary. The little store on the ‘Graben 30′, next to the famous Haas-Haus, features a novel modernist facade designed by Josef Hofmann. It survived to date and is a listed building. You could easily miss the store because it is really small. Finally inside the store you are hardly able to decide weather you should adore  the chocolate’s packages which feature modernist designs by the artists of ‘Wiener Werkstaette’ school or the amazingly petite miniature confectionary.

The pastries are, quite simply, delectable and now available online, too: http://www.altmann-kuehne.at Currently the english version is not finished yet, but with some translation help you can order worldwide.

In any case worth a look: the different boxes: Naschkaestchen
