King's Day classic: the orange tompouce
When it comes to the most sought-after item at the flea market, it turns out that the Dutch are quite foodies: food and drinks top the list, followed by games, household items, books, and art. According to the research, we prefer to sink our teeth into an orange tompouce: according to 41 percent of the Dutch, this is the tastiest King's Day treat. This way, the puff pastry treat leaves behind beer, bitterballen, and orange bitters.

AH orange tompouces
At Hema, we haven't spotted them yet, but at Albert Heijn you can already buy orange tompouces. For €3.50, you can score a box with four pieces. Their regular tompouce came out on top in our supermarket tompouce test, so with a bit of luck, this variant is also a winner. Orange velvet over crispy layers that crackle to the soft heart... Sounds promising!
