Is this the pizza guy? (Dr. Oetker) Wouter Lievens 10:46, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Yes, amongst others; in Germany, he's also the 'flan'-guy, the 'baking-powder'-guy and others...Lectonar 11:06, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)

It's probably about time someone created a WP page for the Dr. Oetker International company, and covered product ranges such as Ristorante, which are being heavily marketed at the moment. DWaterson 19:36, 29 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Did he actually invent baking powder (which Wikipedia otherwise attributes to Alfred Bird) or simply popularise it in Germnay?
