6 Old-Fashioned Desserts
These days, the shelf of desserts for kids is packed with wholesome fruit and yogurt snacks, but things were very different in the past. The more chemical, the better. Which of these desserts did you beg your parents for back then?
Kloppudding
‘With this instant vanilla-flavored pudding powder, you can whip up a delicious dessert for 3 to 4 people in no time,’ says the product description on ah.nl. Just add half a liter of milk and you’re done. Oh, and don’t forget the serving suggestion: ‘Delicious with a dollop of whipped cream.’

Wolkentoetjes
Chocolate, vanilla or strawberry; all loaded with sugar and ever-delicious E-numbers. ‘A pure indulgence,’ if we are to believe Dr. Oetker. Which flavor was your favorite?

Droomdessert cream dessert
The ‘Droomdessert cream dessert’ falls somewhere between Saroma and Wolkentoetje: pudding with a layer of cream. There’s a good chance you ate this as a student too, since it’s extremely cheap: €0.25 each. That immediately explains why it tastes the way it does.
Dubbelvla
Did you go for chocolate and vanilla, or did you prefer strawberry and vanilla? Either way, two colors of custard always felt like a celebration.

Frufoo
FavorFlav’s Emma had a clear favorite: Frufoo. Fruit yogurt in the shape of a UFO and—very importantly—a toy! After playing with it once, it ended up somewhere in the corner again, but that doesn’t matter.
Danoontje
The best compromise between your parents’ wish to let you go through life somewhat healthily and your desire to send as much sugar as possible coursing through your body: fruit quark in cheerful packaging. Better known as: Danoontje Powerrrrr.
