San Carlo Biscottate Olandesi

San Carlo Biscottate Olandesi are a popular Italian bakery item, often localized as 'Dutch toasts' or rusks. These light, crispy toasted bread slices are a breakfast staple in Italy, valued for their crunch and versatility as a topping base.

The brand San Carlo originated in 1936 as a small rotisserie (Rosticceria San Carlo) in Milan, Italy, founded by Francesco Vitaloni. Over the decades, the brand evolved from a local shop into a national leader in the snack food sector, primarily known for its potato chips. Despite its massive growth and the industrialization of its production processes, the company remains under the control of the Vitaloni family. The products are predominantly manufactured in Italy across several production facilities, maintaining the brand's heritage as an iconic Italian family-run business.
