About Royal Dansk
Royal Dansk is the Danish butter cookie in the blue tin. The first batches came out of the oven in Helsingør, Denmark, in 1966. The brand belongs to the Kelsen Group, which Campbell bought in 2013 and sold to a Ferrero-affiliated company in 2019. The cookies are still baked in Denmark, at two factories in the villages of Nørre Snede and Ribe, which together turn out more than 25,000 tonnes a year.
Royal Dansk is the tin you open when people come round, and the one that turns up at Christmas. The vanilla rings and pretzels are best with a light, fragrant cup, such as a Darjeeling or an Earl Grey, which lets the butter come through. With coffee, a milky latte or a cafetière of a medium roast works well.
