Gille Saffransdrömmar biscuits

Gille Saffransdrömmar are traditional Swedish saffron biscuits produced by Continental Bakeries, a major player in the European private label and branded biscuit market. The Gille brand itself was born in Sweden in the 1960s, starting as a small local bakery operation that gained massive popularity for its traditional 'kakor'.

The product is proudly manufactured in Sweden, specifically in Örkelljunga, where Continental Bakeries North AB operates its production facilities. The brand maintains a strong Swedish identity, often using local imagery and traditional recipes like these saffron 'dreams'.

While originally a Swedish family business, Gille is currently owned by Continental Bakeries, which was acquired by the biscuit giant Biscuit International in 2021. This places the ultimate ownership under Biscuit International, which is headquartered in France and backed by investment groups, solidifying its position as a leader in the European biscuit sector.
