About us

Luckily enough, throughout the years we took a photo every now and then during work hours. And without this little photographic treasure trove, we wouldn´t be able to tell the kadó story, from the very beginning until today. An amusing read, followed by a smile guaranteed!

Goodbye Markets

On June 24th 2017 a circle closed in kadó: since 20 years this is our last day representing and offering our selection of licorice at the weekend markets. After 1000 Saturdays at the Winterfeldt Market, 850 at Kollwitzplatz (add to that 520 Saturdays at the Hackeschen Market until 2015), it’s time for us to say goodbye! We are not getting any younger...

From the depth of our heart we would like to thank all licorice monsters out there, whom regardless wheather conditions, stepped out the door to go find us. A weekend without licorice? Not likely. That’s why, dear licorice friends, we are more than happy to welcome you all to pay us a visit in our very own specialist licorice shop in Graefestrasse 20, saturdays from 9:30 to 15:30.

And please don’t forget: on 19.9.2017 kadó is turning 20! We would be delighted to see you again then at the latest!
Sincerly black regards, Ilse Böge & Frank Büttner
