Bolletje: A Timeless Dutch Tradition
Founded in 1867 in Almelo, Bolletje is a well-established name in the Dutch bakery tradition. In addition to their delicious products like rusks and crispbread, their distinctive tins have become a key part of their legacy. These tins, with their familiar red and vanilla colour scheme, are beloved by both collectors and décor enthusiasts. The charming baker figure on the lid evokes memories of delightful treats from the past.

With this vintage Bolletje biscuit tin, you bring not only a decorative item into your home but also a valuable piece of Dutch history.
