Kölln Oat Muesli Berry & Apple – No Added Sugar

Oats are not just a grain – for us at Kölln they are a real passion! For over 200 years we have relied on their valuable properties and made them the focus of our products.

Oats: The local superfood

Did you know? In 2017, oats were named Medicinal Plant of the Year in Germany. No wonder, because as a wholegrain product it supports balanced blood sugar and cholesterol levels – and all naturally. A real superfood that fits into every healthy lifestyle.

To ensure that our oat products are always of the best quality, we use a mixture of German, Scandinavian and regional oats. Oats find optimal conditions, especially in Finland and Sweden: mild temperatures, long summer days and nutrient-rich soils ensure large, light and aromatic oat kernels – the perfect basis for our Kölln products.

Whether crunchy pieces, fine shavings or crispy chips – apples are the upgrade for your breakfast. By preference, we use red apple varieties with an intense taste and extra crunch.

What makes our apples so special?

After the harvest, we get straight to work: the fresh apples are washed, cored and cut into shape – with the peel on, of course! They are then gently dried so that the full fruity taste and valuable nutrients are retained. Fun fact: 11 kg of fresh apples produce 1 kg of dried power fruit.

Where do our apples grow?

Our apples come from Poland, where they thrive on nutrient-rich soil and an ideal climate. Enough sun, enough rain – perfect conditions for a crisp bite.

Currants are the unsung superstars among berries! Originally from Central and Eastern Europe and Northwest Asia, they were already growing in monastery gardens in the Middle Ages. Today, they are at home in almost every country with a temperate climate – and for good reason. Their variety of colours and flavours makes them simply irresistible.

What makes currants so special?

Currants grow in panicles and are studded with small, crunchy seeds – completely natural, as they should be. When harvesting, each individual berry is carefully picked by hand to protect its delicate skin. Thanks to state-of-the-art freeze-drying, the full flavour and power of the vitamins are preserved.

Our currants at Kölln come directly from Central Europe, where they can really flourish under the summer sun. These fresh, sun-ripened berries refine our Kölln Oat Porridge Berry and Kölln Oat Granola Crunchy Berry. A treat that will sweeten your day!

Sweet, slightly sour and intense in taste – raspberries are not only delicious, but also a real natural wonder. Although their name suggests it, botanically speaking they are not berries, but collected drupes. They grow on bushes up to two meters high that are covered with fine thorns.

Raspberries are in season between June and autumn. To ensure that the delicate fruits remain free of bruises, they are picked by hand. For optimal growth, they need a Mediterranean climate with hot, dry summers and mild, rainy winters. Our raspberries come from Central Europe and are processed with gentle care.

Freeze-dried raspberries – Naturally intense

In Kölln Oat Muesli Fruit – No Added Sugar, Kölln Oat Muesli Berry & Apple – No Added Sugar and Kölln Oat Porridge Berry we use freeze-dried raspberries. What does that mean? Freeze drying removes the frozen water from the fruit without destroying the cell structure. This ensures that the colour, shape and full aroma are retained – without any additives!

Strawberries are one of most people's absolute favourite fruits. We use them in our mueslis as freeze-dried strawberry pieces or as a fine powder – for the perfect fruit kick.

The harvest season begins in early June and lasts until mid-July. Strawberries must be ripe to develop their full flavour – this can be recognised by their uniform red colour.

Freeze-dried strawberries – 100 % fruit power

Our freeze-dried strawberry pieces are made from 100 % fresh frozen strawberries. Thanks to the particularly gentle freeze-drying, the colour, shape, smell and of course the taste are completely preserved. And the best part? One kilogram of freeze-dried strawberries is made from around ten kilograms of fresh fruit - so much strawberry power in every bite!

Where do our strawberries come from?

Strawberries love a mild climate with warm days and cooler nights. That's why they grow not only in Germany, but also in other countries with a temperate climate, such as Poland. The strawberries for Kölln Oat Porridge Berry and Kölln Oat Muesli Berry & Apple – No Added Sugar come from there.

Did you know that barley is one of the oldest grains in the world? It was cultivated 15,000 years ago in the Middle East and the Balkans – and to this day it is a real power grain. Along with wheat, it is one of the most important grains and is now grown throughout Europe and Asia.

Not all barley is the same: there are two-row and multi-row varieties. Spring barley is particularly well-known because it develops a full, starchy grain at each starting point. It is precisely these properties that make it the ideal brewing barley for beer. But it's not just brewers who love barley – it's also found in barley, flour and our Kölln products.

Kölln uses 100 % German organic barley

In our Kölln organic products, we use barley from German organic farming.
Barley provides a natural mildness and creaminess that is perfect for delicate porridges and nutritious meals. Whether in the form of flakes, flour or malt, barley is full of tradition and flavour.
