"Originally from the United States, Heddi Nieuwsma moved to Switzerland in 2012. Since her arrival, she has developed a passion for learning about Swiss food. Via her blog, Cuisine Helvetica, she shares recipes, stories and travel experiences. In 2018, the American magazine Saveur chose her blog among thousands as a finalist for its international awards under the category ""Best Special Interest Food Blog."" She works to make Swiss cuisine known for more than just chocolate and cheese."
Astonishing Heddi Nieuwsma. The American blogger, a Neuchatel native by adoption, devotes a delightful book to Swiss sweets - breads, pastries, pies, cookies and other desserts. A territory that has been little explored to date in its confederal diversity and hardly yet known for its refinement. - Le Temps Nieuwsma doesn't just leave it at the recipes, she reports with fine humor and diligent research on the stories behind them, on origins and legends. - Schweiz am Wochenende
