    Hagelslag, rather different to sprinkles I’ve had anywhere else. They are far more chocolate tasting, less sugary.

    I brought some back with me on a trip to Amsterdam, and I’m now going to bring back a few boxes each time I go!

    Buttered toast with sprinkles? Sounds like something a 5 year old invent - sounds delicious though. Buttered toast is already pretty good

    We had this as kids when we visited. The bnb hosts were shocked we, kids, had never had it. And they were delighted we loved it.

    And mother made sure we knew we’d never have it at home XD

    And yet, frozen waffles with chocolate chips was fine at home…

    Untoasted bread, cold butter, and sweet candy sprinkles. That’s a no, no and no. I’d rather eat Hawaiian Pizza. 🤦‍♂️

      Hagelslag

      It’s high cocoa low sugar much much less wax, so probably not very sweet and more like bakers chocolate then a candy. I don’t think it’s very common knowledge but dessert sprinkles are basically just a frosted wax ball.

        yeah thinking of it as a simpler version of chocolate-filled croissants makes it a lot more sensible as breakfast

    Translated as “hailstorm” That’s incorrect, it’s more like hail strike (as in, hit).

    My 4 year old likes it with cream cheese. I prefer the traditional real butter on white bread (NOT toast).

    Yes. This is the most normal thing in the world for Dutch folk.

    Hmmmm. I should help increase that number but I don’t eat breakfast.

    Aren’t they called fairy bread or fairy sandwiches in Australia? Didn’t know they were popular elsewhere

      Yep, fairy bread here - made with 100’s and 1000’s, white bread and margarine. I’m sure butter would be great but that was never an option at any parties I went to.
