Opavia Zlaté Esíčka biscuits

Opavia Zlaté Esíčka are iconic S-shaped biscuits flavored with cinnamon and cocoa, deeply rooted in Central European snack culture. The brand traces its origins back to 1840 in Opava, Czech Republic, where it began as a local bakery founded by Kaspar Melhior Baltasar Fiedor.

Over the decades, the brand became a household staple in Czechoslovakia. Today, the manufacturing primarily takes place in the Czech Republic, specifically at the Opavia factory in Opava or the Lovosice plant. While the brand carries a strong national identity, it has been under international ownership for several decades. Following the acquisition by Danone and later Kraft Foods, the brand is currently owned by Mondelēz International, a global leader in snacks and confectionery.
