Kaasstengels

From ice cream to cookies.

Savoury cheese cookies called kaasstengels. Tasty and crispy made with Edam cheese, a dutch cheese.

They are popular in Indonesia with dutch influences. I wish they are bigger. They are so small and dainty that I could eat one whole tub (40 pieces) in one seating.

Bought two packs from lapise dot my insta seller at about MYR 26 each.

Nicely wrapped in bubble wrap. According to this wiki link:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaasstengels

kaas is the dutch word for "cheese", while stengels means "sticks". 

This advert pops up in my insta and it attracted me to buy it because I love to eat savoury cheese cookies and true enough, they are very tasty! 😋😋😋🤤🤤🤤

    1. More cheesy than cheezels and not sweet at all. Cheezels are still a bit sweet. This is not sweet at all.

  6. Guess cheese is expensive so you won't get the quantity, just quality. Are you eating them with a fork or that's just for size comparison?

    I like both meiji and hwatai crackers. And have decided I don't really like Jacob's - now have to finish the Jacob's I just bought (when I THOUGHT I'd bought Hwatai!).

    1. The fork is for size comparison. Don't think can pick up using a fork. Jacob crackers if you buy the low salt high fiber I don't think you will like it at all cos you don't like those very healthy food cos not heavy taste. Hehehehe, blur a bit you think you bought hwatai but is jacob. 😊😂

    2. I went for the 'normal' one. The low salt high fiber one is totally not for me! Ya I was wavering between HT and Jacob, then must have picked Jacob thinking it'd be healthier for the kids. But somehow in my mind I had a packet of HT in the cupboard haha.
      Anyway the kids don't like it either.

    3. Since SE and JE don't like both, I guess you don't need to buy crackers biscuits anymore unless you want to eat them yourself.

    4. Yeah. But first I need to clear these Jacob ones. By then I'd probably not want cream crackers for quite some time!

    5. Ask your helper to help you eat the Jacob crackers. 😋

  9. Those Dutch cookies are indeed so small. Had you not put a fork beside them for comparison, I would not have guessed!
