Pro tip: Ask for Bruchware, Printenbruch or generally Bruch - you usually get a mixed bag of Printen that did break and/or have some minor defects (e.g. not perfectly covered in chocolate), etc. but are still fine to eat and have no difference in taste. They’re cheaper and if you’re going to eat a bag all by yourself anyways… :)

That also works for the other mentioned factory outlets. I just got a few kg of cookies from Balsen and a f-ton of chocolate from Lindt a few days ago.
