Bedtime treat
As bedtime ( Swiss Bettmümpfeli ) refers to small sweets that are eaten before bedtime. There is a brittle nut from the Austrian company Pischinger, which has been produced and called that way since 1958.
In a figurative sense, the expression “ bedtime treats” is also used for bedtime stories .
A well-known radio broadcast is the Betthupferl on Bayerischer Rundfunk .
In Austria, at least from the mid-1960s to the mid-1980s, at 5:55 p.m. or 6 p.m. there was a broadcast of the same name on the ORF television program with 4-minute short films, often cartoons or puppet theaters from various series such as Barbapapa , Die Abenteuer der Maus auf dem Mars , the Petz family (with Pezibär) and, intended for adults, on FM4 .
The Swiss radio station Radio SRF 1 brings short thrillers with black humor under the title “ Schreckmümpfeli ”. The title is a corruption of "Bettmümpfeli".
