Dr. Oetker Bicarbonate of Soda

Dr. Oetker Bicarbonate of Soda is a well-known baking leavening agent used worldwide to help cakes and breads rise. The brand has a heritage dating back to 1891 when Dr. August Oetker developed a consistent baking powder in Bielefeld, Germany. Since then, it has grown into one of the most significant family-owned businesses in the food industry.

While the brand originated in Germany, the manufacturing of its wide array of baking products occurs across many global locations to serve local markets, including major facilities in the UK and throughout Europe. The company remains under the control of the Oetker family, operating as a diversified international conglomerate with interests in food, beverage, and other sectors through various subsidiaries.
