Original Salzburger Mozartkugel
SINCE 1890
In 1890, Salzburg master confectioner Paul Fürst first created the now world-famous Salzburg Mozartkugel. In 1905, he was awarded a gold medal for his incredibly popular product at a Paris exhibition.
Today, his great-great-grandson and current owner of the company – Martin Fürst – still produces this first-class speciality following the traditional recipe and process – and rightly calls the result the “Original Salzburg Mozartkugel”.

always fresh
Made
Our Mozartkugeln are made using the traditional recipe and only carefully selected, natural ingredients – fresh in our own kitchen.
Original Salzburger Mozartkugeln are made with marzipan and pistachios, nougat and dark chocolate. To achieve a perfectly round shape, each and every piece is skewered onto a stick before being dipped in chocolate. This traditional method is still being used today.
Paul Fürst already worked innovatively with the help of “motor operation” and proudly noted this fact on his stationery. Even today, in addition to the handwork of the confectioners, modern special machines support us in the traditional manufacturing process.
This is what separates our Original Salzburger Mozartkugeln from the rest. The skilled work that goes into our treats and the stick method make each piece one-of-a-kind.

PERFECTED PRODUCTION METHODS
Unchanging tradition
Using an intricate process and the same recipe developed by creator Paul Fürst, Original Salzburger Mozartkugeln are still made today.
This is something quite special! Each pistachio-marzipan centre is placed on a stick and dipped in dark chocolate. From there, they go on to set, the stick is removed, and each Mozartkugel is given the finishing touch – a dollop of extra chocolate.

ON A STICK
Pistachio-marzipan and nougat
Original Salzburger Mozartkugel feature a core of marzipan mixed with pistachio paste. This pistachio-marzipan centre is then wrapped in a layer of delicate nougat.
Each core of the Original Salzburger Mozartkugel is put onto a stick, before dipping it in dark chocolate.

DARK CHOCOLATE
Dipped in
Each and every Mozartkugel is dipped in dark chocolate. The dipping process envelops the praline made of pistachio marzipan and nougat in dark chocolate.
DRIP AND DRY
Placed upside down
Excess chocolate is allowed to drip off the Mozartkugeln and the stick is then placed vertically with the Mozartkugeln pointing upwards to allow the chocolate to cool and set.
SEAL WITH CHOCOLATE
Remove the stick and
Once set, the stick is removed and the hole that is left is sealed with chocolate.
UNIQUE
Sealing each treat with chocolate results in a small bump that is characteristic and unique to each and every Original Salzburg Mozartkugel.
Our history and tradition are reflected above all in the high quality of our products.
