It would be called Brauhefe, but I don't know where to get it.

Oh, I don't know. That may be tough. Regular bread yeast is available and easy to find in the grocery store, but Brewers yeast may be another story. If you are already in Switzerland, I would ask at a wine store or a beverage store, otherwise, why not just take it with you when you go? I took a bunch of stuff with me when I moved there. You may also want to try the Apotheke (the pharmacy) or the druggerie (sp.) (the drugstore for non-prescription medicine). Just to give you an idea of how hard it can be to find something...I had a very hard time finding rubbing alcohol. I ended up going to the drug store and sniffing a bunch of bottles that the druggist presented to me. Finally, I ended up buying a small bottle of 100% alcohol and diluted it with water. It cost me about $6USD. My best advice: Take it with you, if you can.
My standing joke is...I don't know how a country can exsist without Cool Whip in a tub. Whipping cream comes in a can, like Redi-Whip, or you can whip your own, but Cool Whip just ain't there. :) Have fun and good luck.
