Dr. Oetker baking and frozen food products

Founded in 1891 by Dr. August Oetker in Bielefeld, Germany, the brand began with the invention of 'Backin,' a pre-measured baking powder that guaranteed successful results for home bakers. This innovation laid the foundation for an international food empire that has remained a family-owned business for over a century.

Today, Dr. Oetker is a global leader in the baking ingredients, dessert mixes, and frozen pizza categories. While its spiritual and corporate home remains in Germany, the company operates production facilities across Europe, North America, and other international regions to serve local markets.

Ownership of the brand is held by the Oetker Group, one of Germany's largest and most diversified family-owned conglomerates. Following a significant corporate restructuring in 2021, the Dr. Oetker food division remains the core of the Dr. August Oetker KG holding company, continuing its legacy of quality and 'a taste of home' across generations.
