Opavia Miňonky wafer bar

Miňonky are traditional Czech wafer bars known for their crunchy layers and cream fillings, often coated in chocolate. The brand Opavia has deep roots in the Czech Republic, originating from a bakery established by Kaspar Melhior Baltasar Opavský in 1840 in the town of Opava. Over the decades, Opavia became a household name in Czechoslovakia, representing quality baked goods and biscuits.

Today, the brand Opavia and the Miňonky product line are owned by Mondelēz International. Production for these wafers primarily takes place in the Czech Republic, specifically at the Mondelēz factory in Opava, which remains one of the largest biscuit factories in Europe. While the parent company is a global American conglomerate, Mondelēz continues to market Opavia as a local heritage brand, maintaining its traditional recipes and central European identity.
