Bolletje is a well-known Dutch company that specializes in the production of bakery products, such as rusks, crispbread, gingerbread and, of course, tins of biscuits. Bolletje was founded in 1867 by Gerardus Johannes Johannes Bolletje in Almelo, the Netherlands. The company started as a small bakery shop and grew into a successful company with a wide range of products.

Bolletje tins are iconic and recognizable by their characteristic shape and design. They are often red and vanilla in colour and have a nostalgic appearance due to the image of the Dutch bakery. The tins are very popular among collectors and are often kept as decorative items or for storing cookies and other treats.

In the Netherlands, Bolletje is a well-known and loved brand, which has built up a long history and tradition in the bakery sector. The Bolletje tins are a characteristic part of the brand and are often associated with the delicious biscuits and rusks that the company produces.
