Project: Homemade Pocky!

-
EN

I love eating Pocky’s and unfortunately my country isn’t popular selling them (only in Chinatown). But if you have breadsticks and chocolate, making your own Pocky is easy and fun and quite a party approval as well! Speaking of party today is my birthday as well!

Being a kid I always look forward for my birthdays. Being now older and (hopefully) wiser I’m looking a little less forward, *sigh*. But not the food part of course because food at parties or any occasion is the best! Just like these homemade Pocky’s c: 
Please try them out!

Ik hou van Pocky’s maar helaas is de verkoop van Pocky’s hier in Nederland niet echt op rolletjes en alleen verkrijgbaar in toko’s. Maar wat nou als je soepstengels en chocola hebt? Precies, homemade Pocky’s maken natuurlijk! Ze zijn leuk en onwijs makkelijk te maken en best wel een hoog party gehalte. Over party gesproken, vandaag ben ik jarig!

Mijn verjaardag kijk ik ontzettend naar uit, tenminste toen ik kind was. Nu ik wat ouder ben verzucht ik me weer bij deze gelegenheid. Gelukkig speelt voedsel een groot rol en lekker eten is toch belangrijk? En daar hoort deze zelfgemaakte Pocky’s ook bij c:  

Da Recipe: breadsticks, chocolate (pure, milk, white), any desired deco's such as sprinkles, M&M's, grated coconut, nuts etc...

How I crush almonds. I just didn't want to wash my blender lol. 

 If you want to store them (2-3 days), make sure its air tight! Otherwise it will lose the crunchyness. 
Da Steps:

  1. Melt chocolate as written on package. Careful not burning it! 
  2. Coat the breadsticks in melted chocolate and dunk it in your favorite toppings!
Good luck!

    Dit ziet er zo leuk uit! Is het met soepstengels wel net zo lekker? Ben niet gewend om chocola op m'n soepstengels te doen haha.

    En gefeliciteerd met je verjaardag!

    Oh yummy! These look even tastier as the ratio of chocolate is so much larger. I'd prefer these over peppermint candy canes.

EN Or you can call them ‘scrubbies’ but I use them to create whip cream for my crochet cakes and cupcakes! They also make great home decorations by putting them into a maison jar!

EN This week is officially my back-to-work week from my 6 wonderful weeks off Summer break. And like always it takes some time to adjust, to get my inner work engine warmed up again and like always take a deep breath. It’s kind of the same feeling going back to school but instead of school it’s work. Yay. Since it’s my first work week and it’s first of September why not kick it off with a DIY post.

EN It’s holidays and Liberation Days in The Netherlands and with all these delicious day offs, I’ve finally got more time to do my yarn works. And yes sleeping in late is also great. But mostly I’ve been really productive with my yarn works, whereas the most recent ones - the puff pastry/Danish I have received a fair amount of likes and sweet comments on my social media. Thank you! Being productive means also I take effort and time in perfecting my yarn works but not too hard to make luckily! Especially the snail rolls (cinnamon rolls/pain aux raisin) are really easy and fun to make. And because sharing is caring, I’m sharing you my little secret of making these crochet cinnamon rolls!    NL Heerlijk de meivakantie met al die vrije dagen kan ik lekker ongestoord op mijn haak werkjes storten.
