A thick syrup made from Cherry juice (similar to Birnel), with the consistency of honey. The flavour has reminds of caramel, roasting flavours, and overripe cherries. This product is used in the production of baked goods or to be spread on bread. It is historically made in the entire area of Wimmis in the Simmental valley, exclusively with the very old cherry variety Schöne von Einigen also called as “Plüder” (puffed-up) cherries.
