12x Treats for Work
The days when you proudly went around the classrooms with a basket full of treats are probably (or actually: hopefully) over. But treats are also handed out at your grown-up job, and you can’t show up with bananas with faces drawn on them anymore. That’s why here are twelve treat tips that will actually make an impression.
Cake
If you say birthday, you say cake. Whether you go for banoffee cheesecake with double chocolate, red velvet or blackout cake, you’ll definitely score points with one of these bakes.
Do your colleagues’ tastes vary quite a bit? Then try this magical custard cake, which you make with one batter but which results in three different textures: spongy, custardy and fudgy. Something for everyone!
Want to silence your colleagues once and for all and prove that vegans really do eat more than rabbit food? With this vegan Bounty cake, even the biggest dairy fan will ask for a second serving.
Does all that sound like far too much fuss? You can never go wrong with apple pie. Because come on: who doesn’t like apple pie?! If someone does say they don’t, you can say about these apple pies: just try it, because this one is different.
Savory
Not much of a sweet tooth? Then simply go for the cheesecake from Borrelplank Amsterdam. It’s made with real cheese, after all. You can choose between a huge multi-tiered cake or a petite French cheese with your favorite chutneys, jams and toppings. Party!
We’re willing to bet that you’ll make new friends by bringing something other than sweets for a change and treating everyone to bitterballen, sausage rolls or a generously filled snack platter. And how about fried chicken?!
Small but perfectly formed
Anyone who works at a large company knows the problem: how do you provide everyone with a treat without breaking your back carrying gigantic cakes? Simple: bring cookies and snacks. These figs with bacon, for example, or a mountain of irresistible marshmallows. Cookies are always a good idea too. These salted caramel cookies (with peanut butter!) and these cheerfully colored rainbow cookies will instantly put everyone in a birthday mood.
Nostalgic
Not exactly a kitchen whiz after all, or simply afraid of a baking disaster? You can also just raid the candy store and treat everyone to a trip down memory lane with these candy classics. Do you remember them?
