You say 'potato,' they say, 'kroketten'
MANILA, Philippines - Whether it’s mashed, fried, in a salad and soup, we Filipinos so love the flavor and feel of potatoes that melt wonderfully in each bite. Now potato-lovers can try Kroketten, Netherland’s favorite snack. And “kroketten” is a Dutch word that means a little, round ball.
“Kroketten is one of the best ways to enjoy potato — crunchy, filled with cheese and meat, while they’re deep-fried in a healthy corn oil,” says Kroketten president and owner Maribel Bosch.
For only P35 per order, Kroketten offers three varieties: Original Kroket, the original oblong shape with ground beef, chicken, and cheese; Kroketballen, by far Filipinos’ most favorite and has three pieces of crunchy potato balls which come with dips; and the mini-ballen, the bite-size potato balls considered best for sharing. Since the product can last days if stored properly and has the same great taste when properly reheated, Kroketten is an absolutely healthy snack that will satisfy your guests whether for private gathering or a party.
“We never want our products to be intimidating that’s why we came up with a combo meal — our five-piece mini-ballen is priced at P20 and our four-piece mini-ballen with the 6.5 oz Revita 10 or Nutri 10 fresh fruit drink is only P35,” adds Maribel.
Speaking of fresh fruit drink, a brand called Vers En Snel (a Dutch phrase that means fresh and fast) has two signature thirst-quenchers. One is a certified health-booster made of mango and guyabano, the Nutri 10, while the other one is made of succulent combo of strawberry and passion fruit called Revita 10.
“If one needs an immediate vitamin boost, we recommend the Nutri 10. But if you’re feeling tired and heavy, our Revita 10 gives an instant uplift,” concludes Maribel.
Kroketten is located at Festival Mall Alabang, Albang Town Center, GT Tower Makati, Market! Market!, Starmall EDSA Shaw, Robinsons Galleria, Robinsons Metro East, SM North Edsa, and SM Lipa Batangas. Confident about the potential of the product, the company is also open for franchising. For inquiries, call (632) 822-5711 or 09178596623.
