What does it mean: "vegan"?
Vegan products do not involve any part of an animal, dead or alive. So, no animals get killed or harmed in mass production environments. No milk, no eggs, no beeswax. No gelatine! This also covers all raw materials such as colours and flavors. All of them are natural and none of them can contain animal components or can be produced with help of such. Luehders produces vegan sweets since more than a century and we have sorted out all suppliers to make sure: We can produce first class vegan food.

Is "vegan" automatically halal or kosher?
No, it is not. Both have different requirements to the production process, the ingredients, the storage standards and the knowlegde standards. Get in touch if you have more questions!

More on Ginger!
What is ginger and where does it come from?
Ginger (Zingiber officinale) is a flowering plant whose rhizome, ginger root or ginger, is widely used as a spice and a folk medicine . Ginger is in the family Zingiberaceae, which also includes turmeric (Curcuma longa),[4] cardamom (Elettaria cardamomum), and galangal. Ginger originated in Maritime Southeast Asia and was likely domesticated first by the Austronesian peoples. It was transported with them throughout the Indo-Pacific during the Austronesian expansion (c. 5,000 BP), reaching as far as Hawaii. (source: Wiki) Besides that it has wonderful spicy taste that goes perfectly with sweetness!
---------------------------
Why is the ginger root in the supermarket so cheap, while ginger confectionary is of higher value?
Well, because it is indeed of higher value. Roots used for confectionary must be harvested very early (and young and thus small) to avoid to be fibrous. This way the quality is much higher and so is the price. It would be no joy to have confectionary made out of ginger in supermarket quality.
---------------------------
Is all ginger "vegan"?
Ginger as such is vegan for sure. But if we coat it with chocolate, then we use chocolates containg milk. In this case, the resulting product is vegetarian, but no vegan.
---------------------------
Since when does LÜHDERS deal with ginger?
Well, we have a very long tradition with ginger products. It must be around a century, but since we started so long ago, we cannot name the day. Ginger definetely belongs to our DNA.

Long history... made short.
Founded in 1909 by Johannes Luehders (sen.) in Hamburg, our company has been serving up fruits and everything you could make out of it. Ginger and vegan products belonged to the first list of products. While "vegan" was not even commonly kwown back in the days, we just did it for nothing but the taste. No doubt, our vegan sweets have rich and fruity taste. Two more generations of the family succeeded to grow the business to an extend, where we had to leave downtown and now settled in the south of Hamburg in D-21435 Stelle.
We guarantee that you will fall in love with our delicious products.
