Happy National Crêpe Day! 🤍

Today we’re celebrating one of our favorite sweet (and savory!) treats — crêpes!

At the Berne Christkindlmarkt, crêpes quickly became a guest favorite, with approximately 500 crêpes sold throughout the market!

If you stopped by, chances are you enjoyed a warm, delicious crêpe while strolling the market. Sweet or savory, they were a must-have treat!
