Roland Bretzeli

This is a tasty little pretzel snack from Roland of Switzerland. And tasty they are.

The Chef brought them home for one of his committees (they get the chance to snack on all sorts of Swiss goodies) so I also had the opportunity to try them.

Lovely light pretzel taste and a good crunch. What more do you need? Plus I chanced to discover that they work very well with a sour cream and chive dip which happened to be sitting in the fridge.

Yup. Tasty.

Roland Sticks

Roland Sticks are a delicious little pretzel style snack from Switzerland. And the Chef has been enjoying them all his life.

A lovely crunch, nodules of salt strewn along the little sticks, and a light pretzel taste.

Each not very large packet contains 200g of sticks. But they are hard baked (nothing but wheat flour, corn starch, salt, malt extract and yeast) and so presumably that makes them a lot heavier than your average crispy snack.

We tried the Waitrose version, which is much longer, last year.

Very tasty on their own. Extra tasty with a blob of butter. Yum! And the Chef even eats them with butter and marmite.

Recommended.
