{My Rice Cakes FIT in this Dutch Rusk Tin}

For my favorite Rice cakes I did find this perfect Dutch Rusk Tin at: The Little Dutch Girl in Texas. Just click the hyperlink... BUT, when it arrived I had no Rice Cakes to try if it really worked. So when we came back from our one night at the Hyatt Place Atlanta - Perimeter Center and did some shopping I tried it out right away!
Yep it works! 
Table full with birthday cards, that we found in the mail, for Pieter, upon coming home from Dutch King's Day Celebration...
Bottle of water almost finished during my ride back from Atlanta and now I'm ready for my tea with a RICE CAKE!
Whole Foods Market is selling them and my favorite flavor is TAMARI with SEAWEED...
This is the Blue Delft Design Dutch Rusk Tin...
A windmill on the lid...
Excuse me: I could not wait!
Do you also love Rice Cakes?

    My mom got me hooked on rice cakes. Now you have me hooked on the tin so I have to go visit the website! My fave flavor are the, I believe it is caramel, but it is a lightly sweet flavor which works well as a dessert when you really can't have any! Love that tin... so need to go now and search it out!!

      Dearest Nan,
      They are such a perfect snack and very healthy. Don't know how all of a sudden I came up with this idea and when I googled for such a tin; this is what I found!
      Isn't it amazing that there are a total of 18 different flavors of Lundberg rice cakes?
      Hugs,
      Mariette

    Hello Mariette, When I moved to Taiwan I thought that rice cakes would be common here, but they are non-existent. There is a certain kind of street vendor that makes large bricks of puffed grains, mostly rice, but they are all sweet, lightly held together with sugar. Did you ever find rice cakes in Indonesia?

      Dearest Jim,
      It is funny what one perceives as being common in a country that produces rice but neither in Indonesia we found them. All they eat with rice, besides for their main meals, is the very sweet sticky rice and all cookies and cakes in general are rather sweet.
      Love these Lundberg rice cakes!
      Kindest regards and happy weekend.
      Mariette

    Het lijkt me een hollandse beschuitbus die perfect geschikt is voor de rijstwafels, ze hebben dezelfde maat. Ik vind ze wel lekker, je hebt ze hier ook met kaassmaak.

      Beste Marianne,
      Ja hoor; klopt want deze is geïmporteerd door een winkeltje in Texas met veelal Duitse produkten maar ook dit. Tuurlijk, kaassmaak voor Nederland maar bij de 18 smaken die ze hier hebben zit er geen kaas tussen.
      Liefs,
      Mariette
      Liefs,

    Love the tin. Here in Australia I also buy rice cakes (not as many flavours as you have there) but you open the plastic there's no way to keep the fresh for long. A tin would be ideal, never saw something similar, will have to look around. Have a wonderful weekend!

      Dearest Sami,
      You are right about keeping them fresh and crisp but when I did google in Australia, I found you some so I've already emailed you the link.
      Sending you hugs and wishing you a happy weekend!

    Dearest Mariette; Oh, your Dutch Rusk Tin with blue color and windmill design is really lovely♡♡♡ I'd LOVE to try rice cakes from different countries :-) My favorite here in Japan is called 'ponpon-gashi' which I have sweet memories waiting the vendor to come p:-)
    I liked the last sweet picture and the closing phrase♪
    Sending Lots of Love and Hugs from Japan to my Dear Japanese friend in America, xoxo Miyako*

      Dearest Miyako,
      Thank you and you for sure have some in Japan! I bet that you would like their varieties with seaweed like Koku Seaweed and Tamari with Seaweed, the one I could not wait for eating...
      Sending love and hugs straight back from Georgia/USA to my dear friend in Japan!

    I don't think I've tried rice cake like that. Tamari with seaweed...sounds interesting, and healthy! It reminds me of "kaminari-okoshi" in Japan :-)
    Looks like the tin is perfect for the cake. It's very pretty with white and blue colors!

    Happy Friday, Mariette. Have a lovely weekend!

      Dearest Tamago,
      To me this sounds rather Japanese and I do like its flavor very much. So you have to check out Whole Foods...
      The tin is a great find and I'm very pleased with it.
      Hugs and wishing you a lovely weekend as well.

    What a perfect tin for your rice cakes. They seem made for each other! I haven't had rice cakes in awhile. Nice, crunchy, low calorie snack.

    And happy belated birthday to your husband.

    Lieve Mariette,

    Over het algemeen hebben rijstwafels een positief imago.
    Dit komt waarschijnlijk door de lage hoeveelheid calorieën die een wafel gemiddeld bevat.

    Rijstwafels bevatten niet veel. Het is gewoon gepofte rijst met een hoop lucht ertussen gedrukt in een ronde vorm. Ze zijn dus prima om te eten wanneer je wilt minderen met vettige en calorierijke snacks.
    Maar! Het voordeel van rijstwafels is ook meteen het nadeel: ze bevatten niet veel. En omdat ze niet veel bevatten triggeren ze een hongergevoel. Wanneer je de rijstwafel aan het kauwen bent, dan bereid je lichaam zich voor door alvast spijsverteringssappen aan te maken. Uiteindelijk komt de rijstwafel in de maag en darmen en blijkt het niet veel nuttigs te bevatten voor het lichaam, geen vitamines en mineralen.
    Dit lees ik op internet: http://fitbeauty.nl/zijn-rijstwafels-gezond/#more-1756

    Moet binnenkort eens kijken bij Ecoplaza of ze daar wafels met zeewier verkopen,in supermarkt staan veel soorten/smaken maar meestal met veel suikers.

    Jij had er in elk geval kijk op,leuk blik waar de rol perfect in past!!!

    Fijne zondag en lieve groet,Ger

      Lieve Ger,
      Deze Lundberg Tamari rijstwafels met zeewier zijn mogelijk niet te vergelijken met zomaar witte rijstwafes omdat ze gemaakt zijn van volkoren bruine rijst die ook 2% ijzer bevat en 4% koolhydraten en ook 4% voedingsvezels. Wat voor mij belangrijk is dat ze 0% suikers bevatten en ja, de 60 calorieën doen er eigenlijk voor mij niet eens toe. Het is vele malen gezonder dan iets wat veel suiker bevat en dat geldt niet alleen voor diabetes en pre-diabetes patiënten. Het artikel hierboven was niet erg wetenschappelijk geschreven en ook niet eens onderbouwd met enige waarden. Ik vind ze in elk geval heerlijk en samen met een handjevol walnoten, amandelen en cashewnoten (ongezouten) is het een heerlijke snack voor bij de thee!
      De rol past inderdaad perfect in de beschuitbus; tenminste dít merk wel.
      Liefs en fijne zondag.
      Mariette
