History
Ejvinds Bageri was founded in Hvide Sande in 1956 by Lissi and Ejvind Jørgensen.
Ejvind's youngest son - Merrild Jørgensen, together with his wife, Ilse Jørgensen, took over Ejvind's Bakery in 1988. For the next 30 years, Merrild and Ilse Jørgensen ran the bakery. In 2018, two of Ilse and Merrild's sons bought into the company, and the 4 still run the bakeries today.
Ejvinds Bageri has focused on balancing innovation and tradition, in order to maintain the old craftsmanship in new innovative products.
The quality of the raw materials is reflected in Ejvinds' products, and therefore all raw materials are carefully selected. There is a focus on honest, local and recognized raw materials.
In this way, Ejvinds Bakery still works based on Ejvind Jørgensen's statement - "Good raw materials and good craftsmanship".
Cookies By Ejvinds
The goal of Cookies By Ejvinds was to make the best cookies in the world. We tested countless recipes and methods, we baked and tasted hundreds of different varieties, and the result was good, but not good enough. We therefore chose to do as we have done with our other products, we looked backwards. We went back to the foundation stone and used old-fashioned baking methods. We handled all raw materials by hand and made sure to use the best raw materials on the market. Flour sifted by hand, 100% Danish butter, and processing of the dough with care. These measures gave our Cookies the final nuances, and we now have a product we can be proud of as skilled bakers.
Not just an ordinary cookie, but a craft made with precision and care.
