easyJet will open the doors on Dutch culture by launching new pop-up ‘Café van der Sprinkles’ in Leicester Square, London. The activation will give people the opportunity to experience the sixth happiest place in the world and their traditional sweet delicacy ‘Broodje Hagelslag’.
Over 14 million kilos of Hagelslag (known as fairy bread in the UK) is consumed by hundreds and thousands of Dutch people every year. Commonly enjoyed at breakfast, broodje hagelslag is typically butter spread on bread which is then covered in sprinkles – this sweet treat explains why the country ranks so highly on the World Happiness Index.
Low-cost airline easyJet have partnered with the Netherlands Board of Tourism and Conventions, to transport the people of London on a journey to Holland to experience a taste of Dutch happiness along with a selection of sweet delights.
