  4. I am so happy to learn the word hagelslag! After learning that sprinkles are jimmies or hundreds and thousands elsewhere, I finally have a sillier name for the chocolate version!

  11. Definitely had to google hagelslag, but really want to open this box and see what mystery pops out!

    1. I would be willing to try hagelslag. It kinda puts me in the same mindset of when people starting to wrap their minds around Nutella toast.

  21. Growing up I called them jimmies
    Moving South I was mocked by those who call them sprinkles
    But if I lived near windmills I could use the best name of all – hagelslag!

  22. Thank you for introducing me to the word hagelslag. I will now try to use that word once a month!

  28. This Christmas, forget the snow—spread some hagelslag on your toast and make your morning as sweet as the season itself!

  54. I hadn’t previously heard of hagelslag but it looks interesting. How long until we get it as a Pop-Tarts flavor?

  70. I had to look up hagelslag because I didn’t know what it was. So, are they just chocolate sprinkles?!?

  84. In the morning light, a Dutch delight,
    Hagelslag on bread, a scrumptious sight.
    Sprinkles of chocolate, sugar, or fruit,
    Transforming breakfast into a sweet pursuit.

    A slice of bread, so plain and bare,
    Becomes a treat beyond compare.
    With tiny morsels, crisp and bright,
    It brings a smile with every bite.

    From children’s giggles to adult’s grin,
    Hagelslag wins hearts, time and again.
    A tradition cherished, a joyful start,
    To every day, it adds sweet art.

    Oh, hagelslag, your magic charms,
    You bring joy to breakfast, in homes and farms.
    A sprinkle here, a sprinkle there,
    A touch of happiness, beyond compare.

  94. A little known fact, Oprah was going to give everyone in her audience some hagelslag, but felt it was too complicated to describe what it really was so she just gave them cars instead.

  106. Thank you as always for the fun reviews and for teaching me a new word!

    One day I hope to try hagelslag!

  113. Hagelslag are small, oblong, sweet-tasting chocolate granules, which are sprinkled on slices of buttered bread or rusks. The name refers to hail, hagelslag …

  136. I googled it and didn’t know they had a fancy name for chocolate sprinkles! Now to figure out how to pronounce it correctly – hagelslag.

  142. If I didn’t have any money, I’d hagelslag for some chocolate fairy toast (hagelslag, essentially?).

  155. (To the tune of ‘Jingle Bells’)

    To turn your boring toast
    Into a tasty treat
    It doesn’t take that much
    Just something semi-sweet

    When sprinkled on the top,
    Some call it fairy bread:
    They’re tastier if you use
    Their Dutch moniker instead:

    Oh, Hagelslag! Hagelslag!
    Your taste is so rare!
    Make my bread delicious, it’s so easy to prepare!

    Hagelslag! Hagelslag!
    Your taste is so fine!
    Tiny chocolate sprinkles on my toast is so divine!

  188. I call them “jimmies,” my husbands insists on “sprinkles”

    Wonder how he’d feel about “hagelslag”

  193. I am resisting the urge to Google “hagelslag,” so, in the grand tradition of the game Balderdash, my posited definition: A blood sausage made from deer, or the party at which hagelslag is consumed. One who enjoys hagelslag is called a hagelslagger (plural: hagelslaggern)

  196. Larry stared up at the rough looking giant before him in confusion.

    “Larry, yer a lizard!” hagelslag told him.

  211. I had to google to see what hagelslag was and I wasn’t expecting it to be sprinkles, thought it would be some sort of meaty thing.

    1. I’m not sure what hagelslag is, but happy to talk about it if it means a chance to win some cool stuff!
