8 of the most popular Dutch desserts you need to try

The variety of desserts has increased dramatically over the past two decades and companies continue to introduce new flavors and options. Some brands introduce a new flavor every month and if it sells well it becomes part of their lineup.

The most popular choice for an after-dinner dessert is vla which means custard. It comes in 1-liter containers to pour into your dessert bowl. It is slightly thicker than yogurt because of the cornstarch used but is not as firm as pudding. Dutch parents often tell their children that they won’t get any vla if they don’t eat their dinner!

Vla comes in many flavors for example vanilla and chocolate but you can also find a combination called dubbelvla. However do not shake the package no matter how tempted you are because your dessert will look less appetizing.
