from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bernhard Lambrecht (born September 8, 1897 in Ilsenburg , Harz district, † December 22, 1971 in Wolfenbüttel ) was a German confectioner , founder and first director of the Federal College for the Confectionery Trade and Author, which existed from 1927 to 2004 . He wrote several textbooks and specialist books on the confectionery trade.

Live and act

Bernhard Lambrecht, the son of a master confectioner, attended the Große Schule Wolfenbüttel grammar school from 1907 to 1916 . After graduating from high school, he was a soldier in the First World War. He then completed an apprenticeship as a pastry chef in his father's Wolfenbüttel pastry shop before going to arts and crafts schools in Stuttgart and Braunschweig. In 1926 he passed the master's examination for the confectionery trade in Leipzig .

In 1927 he founded an initially private "technical school for new confectionery art" in Wolfenbüttel, which he headed until 1969 as director. In 1948 the training facility, which had been renamed “Master School of Confectionery Crafts” in 1938, was taken over by the German Confectionery Association and renamed “ Federal College for Confectionery Crafts ” in 1978 , with the subtitle “Bernhard Lambrecht School”.

Until the 1990s, the federal technical school was the only training location for inter-company confectioner training in Germany. Many trainees also came from abroad, e. B. from Japan, the USA and Canada, Brazil, Holland, Sweden and Norway. In 2004 the school was closed.

meaning

Lambrecht, who was shaped by the Weimar Bauhaus style, pursued the goal of raising his profession qualitatively to the level of a handicraft . He is characterized as an "internationally significant pioneer and innovator in his professional field". Lambrecht's “thoughts still influence modern confectionery today”. His book "Das Gebot der Leckerheit", published in 1950, is a "basic work in which he proclaimed the triad of material beauty, material purity and material bond as the top priority for his guild."

In 1962, Bernhard Lambrecht received the Lower Saxony State Prize for the creative handicraft from the state of Lower Saxony for his achievements
