Kerrin Rousset, writer behind the wildly popular blog MyKugelhopf, has been following her sweet tooth around the world, from Alaska to Zambia, for over 15 years. Originally from New York and now at home in Switzerland (with her French husband and their little girl), she founded Sweet Zürich tours, sharing her infectious love of Zürich and sweets, as well as her breadth of chocolate knowledge.
She was instrumental in launching Paris’s Salon du Chocolat in Switzerland, now in its 3rd year in Zürich and translated Ladurée Sucré and Gilles Pudlowski’s A Gourmet Tour of France. You’ll most likely find her running along Lake Zürich with her baby girl, taking photos and chatting with vendors at local markets throughout Europe or writing about her latest adventures and sweet discoveries on her blog.
