One of lifes great treats is to have Sprinkles on bread and butter. Suitable for all ages and available in four flavours. 

The salt powder in the little jars is much sort after by keen licorice lovers and the King peppermints are the best in the world.

Also the convenient Zoute Drop in the roll is great for travel and a cup of cocoa made from real Cacao Powder made by van Houten who in 1928 developed a special roasting method for cocoa is the best available. Thanks to their processing, the cocoa powder keeps its fine flavours of cocoa that has been ripened in the tropical sun.

Holland is famous for it’s Dutch licorice made from genuine licorice root to the highest standards. The regional recipes and history go back hundreds of years to when the Dutch were intrepid explorers (remember they discovered Tasmania), and the various flavours of licorice could be used to sustain the crew and to use as currency of exchange in foreign ports. Licorice travelled well across the latitudes and seasons with no refrigeration.

Medicinal Properties of Licorice

You see, the Dutch not only enjoy drop as a candy, but also as a lozenge when they have a sore throat. They may be onto something; licorice is widely believed to have anti-inflammatory properties and has been used as a medicine since ancient times by many cultures. In fact, licorice root was even found in Tutankhamen’s tomb. The root was also used by the Roman Army to ward of hunger and thirst during long marches.
