History of Breakfast Oat Flakes
- Oats were already used in ancient Europe for their high nutritional value and long shelf life.
- In the 19th century, industrial production of oat flakes began, enabling their mass distribution and quick breakfast preparation.
- Various cultures developed their own recipes where oat porridge was cooked in milk or water and enriched with fruit and nuts.
- With the rise of the modern health movement, oat flakes became a symbol of a healthy lifestyle thanks to their high content of fiber and protein.
- Today, oat flakes are used not only as a traditional porridge but also as a base for granolas, muesli and innovative recipes.
Flakes, cereals, and granolas make a great breakfast because they provide long-lasting energy, keep you full thanks to fiber, and contain important nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. They are easy to combine with fruit, nuts, or yogurt.

Why Does Turtle Choose Organic Farming?
All products from the Turtle brand come from organic farming, which is gentler on nature and human health. Unlike conventional production, it minimizes the use of chemicals, supports natural soil fertility, and protects groundwater.
This allows bees to continue pollinating, the landscape to remain diverse, and consumers to enjoy breakfast free from unwanted toxins and pesticides.
Why Turtle Chooses Organic Farming
- Preserves soil fertility for future generations and protects the purity of drinking water.
- Reduces the amount of pesticides and toxic substances in food.
- Supports biodiversity and contributes to the planet's sustainability.
- Contains no genetically modified (GM) ingredients.
From the very beginning, Turtle has held the organic certification BE-BIO-001, confirming its commitment to sustainability and the highest quality.
How Did This Story Begin?
The founders were searching for breakfast cereals in organic quality, without added sugar – and couldn’t find them. It was only pregnancy and the birth of a child that made them reflect even more deeply on what they actually eat and what they want to offer their family. At that time, Thilo and Laurence were busy with work, but it was the maternity leave that proved to be the right moment for the creation of Turtle – a brand that brings better breakfast alternatives for everyone seeking clean composition and real taste.
The name Turtle was chosen after the well-known story of the tortoise and the hare. While the hare rushes forward and quickly gets tired, the tortoise moves slowly but steadily – and eventually wins. The same applies to the energy from whole grain oats, which is released gradually and provides the body with stable strength throughout the day.
Today, they are grateful to be able to share their love for breakfasts with hundreds of thousands of you every month. They constantly seek new ways to bring you even better products and inspiration for breakfasts you will love. Because a good day starts with a great breakfast – and they want yours to always be exceptional.

Who is behind the Turtle brand
Behind the Turtle brand is a team of health food enthusiasts who believe that breakfast should not only be tasty, but also nutritious and made with respect for nature. Inspired by the simplicity and quality of traditional recipes, the brand founders decided to create a range of cereal products that combine pure organic ingredients, great taste and sustainability.
The aim was to offer an alternative to conventional breakfast products, which often contain unnecessary additives, refined sugar and artificial flavourings.
Turtle is based on the philosophy of "slow food", i.e . conscious eating with an emphasis on the quality of ingredients and their natural processing. The brand name symbolizes patience, honesty and consideration - values that are reflected not only in the products themselves, but also in the entire approach to production and business. As a result, Turtle has earned the trust of customers across Europe and is constantly expanding its range with new, innovative products that make breakfast a real treat.
Turtle brand vision
Turtle' s vision is clear - to deliver breakfasts that are not only delicious, but also healthy, nutritious and made with the planet in mind. They want to inspire people to better eating habits by offering products without unnecessary additives, refined sugar and chemicals.
Every step of production, from the careful selection of raw materials to eco-friendly packaging, reflects their commitment to sustainability and quality. At the same time, they emphasize an ethical approach to production and fair cooperation with suppliers who share their values.
Their goal is not only to produce quality products, but also to contribute to a positive change in the way people think about food and its impact on the world.
What inspires the founders
Turtle is a brand that embodies everything that goes into a great breakfast - simple, clean and delicious products. Their team focuses on creating innovative recipes and improving traditional breakfast dishes to make them healthier and more nutritious.
They were the first to market porridges, which gradually created a whole new segment in some European countries. They enrich classic recipes with modern elements and look for new ways to combine ingredients and discover new flavours.
Each Turtle product is designed with versatility in mind, but always with carefully selected organic ingredients that guarantee high quality, healthful ingredients and great taste.

Why does Turtle rely on organic farming?
All Turtle products come from organic farming, which is better for nature and human health. Unlike conventional production, it minimises the use of chemicals, promotes natural soil fertility and protects groundwater. As a result, bees can continue to pollinate, the landscape remains diverse and consumers can enjoy a breakfast free of unwanted toxins and pesticides.
Why Turtle chooses organic farming
- It preserves soil fertility for future generations.
- It protects the purity of drinking water.
- Reduces the amount of pesticides and toxic substances in food.
- It promotes biodiversity and contributes to the sustainability of the planet.
- It does not contain any genetically modified (GM) ingredients.
From the very beginning, Turtle has held the BE-BIO-001 organic certification, confirming its commitment to sustainability and the highest quality.
Fair production and healthy food
Fair Production: a responsibility that makes sense
Turtle is committed to sourcing ingredients in a fair and reasonable manner because it believes that quality products start with honest supplier relationships.
Proximity
- They buy raw materials from farms close to their production facilities, which allows for a long-term and stable cooperation between farmers and producers.
- This approach promotes not only the freshness of raw materials but also the sustainability of local communities.
Fair access
- Every raw material is purchased in accordance with the high social standards set by organizations such as BSCI (Business Social Compliance Initiative), SA8000 (Social Accountability) and ILO (International Labour Organization).
All of Turtle' s suppliers are members of Sedex, which ensures fair living and working conditions for all those involved in growing cocoa, sugar cane and other ingredients that brands cannot grow directly in their area.
Healthy and nutritious food: start the day with energy that lasts
Breakfast should provide not only immediate energy, but also a long-lasting feeling of satiety and vitality. The right combination of macronutrients is the key to giving your brain and body everything they need to function optimally.
Reach for breakfast foods that contain a balance of carbohydrates, protein, healthy fats and fibre. Carbohydrates give you quick energy, while protein gives you a steady source of energy throughout the day.
Taste is the foundation of food enjoyment
This enjoyment has a positive effect on our health. It is scientifically proven that enjoying food supports digestion, improves the relationship with food and can help overcome problems such as eating disorders.
Therefore, it is not only important what you eat, but also how you eat it.
Sustainable packaging: Protecting freshness and being responsible for the planet
Turtle' s goal is to use packaging that preserves the freshness and taste of their products while minimizing the negative impact on the environment.
The cardboard boxes are made from 80% recycled fibres, and the outer packaging for transport is completely recyclable.
While plastic is not ideal, it is essential for preserving freshness and protecting against moisture, greatly reducing food waste. This plastic is recyclable, which means that by reusing it, the amount of new plastic can be reduced.
They use eco-friendly bubbles made from degradable vegetable starch to ship orders.
