Peijnenburg Parelkandij ontbijtkoek

Peijnenburg is a renowned Dutch brand famous for its 'ontbijtkoek' (spiced ginger cake), a staple in Dutch breakfasts and snacks. The brand's history dates back to 1883 when Harry Peijnenburg opened a bakery in Geldrop, Netherlands. Over more than a century, it transitioned from a local bakery to the market leader in the Dutch ginger cake category.

Today, Peijnenburg is manufactured primarily in the Netherlands, specifically in Geldrop, maintaining its traditional roots even as it has grown. In 2006, the brand was acquired by Lotus Bakeries, a prominent Belgian food group known globally for its Biscoff cookies. This acquisition integrated Peijnenburg into a larger international snack portfolio, ensuring its longevity and distribution across Europe while keeping its distinct Dutch identity.
