Our partner Backhaus Bofa stands for bread baking with heart and hand: simple, quality ingredients, finished with herbs from the on-site garden and rooted in genuine hospitality. Sabine Wittwer is living her dream here, supported by the whole family.
Traditional bread baking in the Montafon
Perched above Paternen in the Montafon, Backhaus Bofa is a lovingly restored family heirloom that also offers guest rooms. In this special setting, breads, cakes and pastries with character are produced.
Small-group courses
Backhaus Bofa offers bread baking courses in small groups. For groups of eight or more, dates can be arranged on request - including overnight stays. This turns a course into an immersive, shared baking experience.
The wood-fired oven at Backhaus Bofa
At the heart of the operation sits a Fontana Gusto. The indirectly-fired wood-fired oven is versatile, making it an ideal choice for a bakehouse. As Sabine Wittwer puts it: 'The Gusto suits us perfectly.'
Fontana Gusto in use
The Gusto comes from the Italian manufactory Fontana Forni. In the indirectly-fired oven, breads, cakes, pizzas, casseroles and braised dishes all turn out well. Fontana offers numerous features, including convection, thermometers and various accessories - a traditional bakehouse principle in modern form.
Advice and contact
Anyone interested in the Fontana Gusto can see it for themselves at Backhaus Bofa; on request Sabine Wittwer will demonstrate the oven in practice. For personalised advice about wood-fired ovens you can reach us by phone at 06051 67777 or via our consultation page.
