Gingerbread Cookies: Our Top 5 Favorite Flavors
This traditional pepernoot—which is similar to taaitaai—is threatened with extinction; kruidnoten are taking over! And how! They come in all colors and flavors. These are our favorites:
Van Delft’s Limoncello
Our colleague Laura recently went all out on Van Delft’s liquor-flavored kruidnoten and bought Jager, Gin Tonic, and limoncello kruidnoten. The last ones were the absolute winner. So fucking delicious. Highly recommended!

- Gin Tonic kruidnoten, ook lekker

- Limoncello kruidnoten, FUCKING LEKKER
Hema’s Tompouce
Hot dog outfits for dogs, make-your-own wine kits, and vegan smoked sausage: Hema has been on a roll lately. Following their tompouce donut, they also launched tompouce kruidnoten: white chocolate with tompouce flavor. The pink color alone was enough to win us over.
Bolletje’s Truffle
They’ve been around a little longer, but are still just as popular: Bolletje’s truffle kruidnoten. That soft layer of cocoa powder, followed by the crunchy chocolate kruidnoot, is simply a top-tier combo.
Kruidvat’s Unicorn
At the editorial office, we received cappuccino, tiramisu, and unicorn kruidnoten from Kruidvat. We never expected the pastel-colored unicorn kruidnoten to be the first ones to disappear. But that’s exactly what happened. People even peeked at other desks to see if there were any left somewhere—they were that delicious.
AH Salted Caramel
Never change a winning team. Caramel and sea salt are simply a perfect match, in any form. The soft, almost fudgy sweet-and-salty layer makes these kruidnoten dangerously delicious.
