Blütenzarte Köllnflocken are a historic and iconic brand of oat flakes produced by the German company Peter Kölln GmbH & Co. KGaA. The company's roots date back to 1795 when Hans Hinrich Kölln took over a grain mill in Elmshorn, but the modern industrial company was officially established by his son, Peter Kölln, in 1820.

The specific 'Blütenzarte' (delicate) variety, characterized by its fine texture, was officially trademarked in 1937 along with the famous light and dark blue packaging. Today, the brand remains a staple of the German breakfast table. Production is still centered in Elmshorn, Germany, where the company's large silos are a local landmark. Peter Kölln remains an independent, family-owned business, now managed by the 7th generation of the founding family.
