My Favourite New Zealand Snacks!

Hello friends! I haven’t really been making a whole lotta food lately so I thought we could take a look at some of my favourite NZ snacks that I’ve been missing while in Australia. I have so many favourite snacks from both countries but NZ snacks will forever be the best (soz, Aussie).

  • Griffin’s Mallowpuffs – the closest Australia has are probably Royals but they just don’t taste the same
  • Anything by Lewis Road Creamery – there’s a shop at South Melbourne Markets that has been getting some NZ stock so Luke and I will check that place out eventually
  • L&P – I know you can get it here but the supermarkets close to us don’t always have it and it’s REALLY refreshing in summer. Luke will disagree because he’s a Solo Kid all the way, but I definitely love L&P
  • Cookie Time – They’re delish, especially warmed up in the microwave
  • Jelly Tip Ice Cream – Omg my favourite! It’s ALWAYS the first thing I buy whenever I go back to NZ (and mum always has them in the freezer for me when we go hehe, thanks mum)
  • Whittaker’s Jelly Tip Chocolate – You can get this here online and apparently it’s really yummy frozen too but I’ve yet to try that. It’s also really expensive, damn cocoa!
  • Pinky Chocolate Bar – I don’t know why I love this so much, it’s basically like a chocolate fish but with caramel inside. I miss this one a lot
  • Cooper Kettle Wood Fired BBQ chips – I’m not usually a big fan of BBQ flavoured stuff (I mean I like BBQ shapes) but these ones I would just demolish – and I do love chippies a lot
  • FRUJUS – So good in summer! If you’re a kiwi, do you call them ice blocks or icy poles?
  • NZ pies – Sorry Australia, I know you love your meat pies too but the NZ ones just taste SOOO much nicer (even if they’re just frozen ones from the supermarket)
  • RJ’s licorice, specifically the Raspberry Chocolate Log, it’s YUM!
  • Kiwi Onion Dip – but you gotta make it like the Maggi website says “here
  • Bluebird Burger Rings (they just taste better than the Australian version)

What’s your favourite snack? Let me know in the comments!
