Brandt Zwieback Rusk | Sweetened Crispy Bread | Perfect for Teething Children | Enjoy With Sweet or Savory toppings | 8 oz

made the best cheese cake crust and delicious on their own

I do not care for a graham cracker cheesecake crust. It's too soggy. I have always used Zwieback. It's a staple, and it was a shock when it quit being sold in the US years back. This is foreign Zwieback, which is different from the American brand. This has the exact same texture, but it doesn't have the same taste. It's fine for a crust as is, but if you want the taste of the Zwieback you once knew, here's what I do. My recipe calls for 1 1/4 cups of Zwieback crumbs, and I mix in 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon and 1/8 teaspoon of nutmeg and mix it really well so the spices are spread out as evenly as possible among the crumbs. Then I add the sugar and melted butter. It's as close as I can get to the old Zwieback I knew growing up. This box came fresh, and although it's for teething infants, I highly recommend it for your cheesecake crust.

Great taste

I've been testing out rusks as of late and wanted to see what was available. Rusk bread baked three times - once to rise, once to crisp up the crust, and then once after it has been sliced to crisp up the rest. This is a mild rusk - very mild sweetness, very mild saltiness, mostly tasting like toast. Some may find it to be too mild, it is maybe one step up from a unsalted saltine in terms of flavor. It takes butter well, and dips okay, though it doesn't have much body. It is lightly crunchy - easy to bite into and chew down. I thought it was okay, pretty good. Nice late night snack. But I don't think I'd get this specific rusk again, I'd try to find something a little more savory or salty next time. I'd recommend it as an introduction to the food type, though.

They were a good size, my daughter didnt mind the taste. They melted great and easy in her mouth so she wouldn't choke. Great snack for kids and great value for money. They looked tasted better than they looked.

I love to use them to make the crust for my cheesecake. Worked great and arrived in a timely manner.

The oil and sweeteners are a no for me to eat or give to toddlers. Wish I had taken the time to read the ingredients before buying. And pricey!

I've been eating this brand since I was a young child in Germany. This is a crunchy, not so sweet piece of Melba toast. I put honey on it, or Nutella and drink tea with it. It soothes a troubled tummy and great for teething babies. I had my gallbladder removed and was eating this the first 5 days.
