Olympia: Ski Star Franjo von Allmen Launches Signature Sausage Line
Franjo von Allmen, a promising 24-year-old ski athlete from Boltigen, Switzerland, is making waves ahead of the upcoming Olympics. As he prepares to compete on the challenging “Pista Stelvio” in Bormio, the entire community is rallying behind him.
Franjo von Allmen’s Rise in Skiing
Von Allmen is not just a local hero but also the reigning World Champion, having earned his title in 2025. His recent success has turned him into a frontrunner for Olympic gold in the downhill event.
The Franjo-Wurst: A Special Tribute
To celebrate von Allmen’s achievements, local butcher Urs Wittwer created a signature sausage called the “Franjo-Wurst.” This delicacy was inspired by his wife, Cornelia, and embodies the spirit of their community.
- Franjo-Wurst Details:
- Type: Brühwurst (cooked sausage)
- Weight: 150 grams
- Fat content: 25%
- Length: 27 centimeters
- Ingredients: A blend of pork and veal with Alpen-Chili seasoning
This unique sausage was first introduced when von Allmen won three silver medals at the Junior World Championships in 2022. Initially named “Silberblitz,” it has since become a staple in the local butcher shop.
Popularity and Sales
During the World Cup events in Wengen, sales of the Franjo-Wurst can reach up to 20 kilograms per day, priced around 4.40 euros. This popularity is a testament to von Allmen’s influence on his hometown.
Additional Local Creations
In addition to the Franjo-Wurst, a blue schnapps, dubbed the “Franjo-Shot,” has been developed. This spirit is mixed using a secret recipe purportedly created by the athlete himself. The drink has gained enough attention to be featured on Swiss television.
As the Olympics approach, the community is excited to see what further innovations will emerge if Franjo von Allmen secures a gold medal. With both schnapps and sausages already in place, the future looks bright for this young athlete and his supporters.
