Lagkagehuset is a premier Danish bakery chain renowned for its high-quality artisanal breads, pastries, and cakes. The brand traces its roots back to 1991 when Ole Kristoffersen and Steen Skallebæk merged their bakeries to create a modern bakery experience. The name itself refers to a famous historic building in Copenhagen, 'The Layer Cake House', where the first shop was located.

While the brand is deeply rooted in Danish baking traditions, its ownership has transitioned to international private equity. Since 2017, the brand has been primarily owned by the Nordic private equity firm Nordic Capital together with L Catterton. Under this ownership, the brand has expanded globally, operating under the name 'Ole & Steen' in international markets such as the UK and USA. The products sold in Denmark are typically manufactured fresh daily in local bakeries across the country.
