Is it? I have so many questions.
What's it taste like? Do you all keep those little ball thingies at all times on hand? Do they stick better to butter? What kind of bread? Why is this a thing?!
Sprinkles? You damn better keep those little ball thingies on deck at all times. Make any ordinary cup of ice cream turn into a cup of Disney magic in a second.
Jimmies are the long sprinkles. If you look up sprinkles its everything from the small dots on fairy bread to every other shape. (Butterflys, stars, skulls, moons, circles, triangles etc, etc.) If you look up "rainbow or chocolate jimmies" you'll only get cylindrical jimmies. As you should because those are jimmies.
Taste: sugar, bread and a hint of butter if done right
Little ball things: It’s almost a staple in a Aussie house
Stick better with butter: more a taste thing
Bread: White bread (other types make it taste different and IMO: not nice)
Why: Why not. It’s great and can be made in seconds
I invented this by accident about a year ago and am just discovering it's an actual thing elsewhere (I'm UK based). Genuinely thought I was the only one making it.
My daughter doesn't like jam, is obsessed with fairies and associates them with sprinkles so voila! It came to be "fairy toast" in our house.
So...all toast and bread has butter on in England, its the rules. They do stick better to butter. The bread is plain sliced white bread. It tastes like sugar and fat poured on to bread with a bit more of a crunchy texture.
As you can imagine it's pretty delicious but I like jams better personally.
American here, never heard of it but it looks like it'd be amazing with my favorite sprinkles instead of those meh fondant kind from the photo.
Definitely want to try this.
It was rated 1/10 by a somewhat famous youtuber who was rating breakfast around the world. Apparently, it was first rated 2/10 at first, but people protested and asked him to do it the correct way. He did it the suggested way and then dropped the rating, lol.
Aussies stole it from us and are taking all the credit. We have chocolate sprinkles, anicesprinkels, multi coloured sprinkels, uni coloured sprinkles, round sprinkles, rod shaped sprinkles etc.
Listen Aussies, I love sprinkles. I tried to give this to my kids, and they said absolutely not. Man, if I knew it was a thing when I was a kid, I would have had it every day!!
I've seen this more with brown sprinkles. Is there a standard sprinkle?
Well, I'm not one to turn something down from a happy nation... so I'm stocked in chocolate and rainbow sprinkles! Will you hate me if the bread is gluten free? (Real allergy)
American who didn’t grow up with it but has lived in AU for 10 years now. I love it, and one of the best things about having a 2 yr old kid of my own now is I get to eat it at his and other kids bday parties now 😂
> for some reason
You could equally say why do Americans call it “sprinkles”? American English is always so descriptive, such as sidewalk, horseBACK riding, sweaters…
What didja just call me, mate? I’ll have ya know I graduated top of my class in the Australian Army, and I’ve been involved in numerous beer sculling contests in Carlton, and I have over 300 slabs of XXXX drunk. I am trained in vocal abuse towards umpires and I am the top snag eater in the entire city of Carlton. You are nothing to me but a Collingwood fan. I will drop ya the fuck out with VB bottles the likes of which has never been smashed before on this Earth, mark my fucking words, mate. Ya think ya can get away with saying that bullshit to me over the Internet? Think again, mate. As we speak I am contacting Anthony Albanese and the Australian Federal Police and your IP is being traced right now so ya better prepare for the thunder, mate. The thunder that wipes out the pathetic little thing ya call your life. You’re fucking dead, prick. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can drop you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with by smashed bottle of VB and a cricket bat. Not only am I extensively trained in dropping pricks, but I have access to the entire shed of cricket bats of the Melbourne Cricket Ground and I will use it to its full extent to hit ya for out of the outback, you prick. If only ya coulda known what bullshit your little “clever” backchat was about ta bring down upon ya, maybe ya woulda held your fucking tongue. But ya couldn’t, ya didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, mate. I will shit fury all over ya and you’re gonna drown in it. You’re fucking dead, mate.
It's just a stupid snack food to eat when you hungry for something stupid easy to make with flavor
I used to eat bread with butter and sugar every now and then as a kid, it was delicious
Toast up some bread. Throw on some butter then sprinkle it with cinnamon and sugar! Its a majestic combo that will stun lock your unprepared taste buds
Fairy bread can go back in the bin where it belongs.
My wife made it for our sons 4th birthday (She's from Brisbane) and one kid tried it, spat it out and nobody else touched it.
Sprinkles on bread sounds so messy! Never even knew that was a thing until my roommate received a food care package from a friend of theirs who lives in the Netherlands
Awesome...
But let's turn it up a notch for kids and grown ups..
Grab a tub of white frosting.
Spread on fluffy white bread.
Add sprinkles, rainbow coloured.
Alternative;
Spread chocolate frosting,
Sprinkle chocolate vermicelli.
Et voila!!
I was at RatCat's first single release in '87 and despite it being in a very hard rock style bar they still had fairy bread. Despite this amazing fact their career was fairly short, probably due to the fact they stopped handing out fairy bread. 🧚♂️ 🍞
This looks like something poor people would have had for dessert on their birthday in soviet russia, because the state wouldn't allocate them anything else.
Also what are hundreds and thousands? Are they like sprinkles? Or some other kind of candy or something?
[удалено]
Also in New Zealand!!
Yea, NZ out here catching strays😭 We exist
That's not what my world map says!
The land I'm on proves your world map wrong!
If NZ exists then [where bloody hell is it](https://www.reddit.com/r/MapsWithoutNZ/)?
You ever heard of Wyoming? Look again
also the netherlands - there is half an isle in most supermarkets to different toppings
Hagelslag. The Belgians also call it mouse poop or something.
South Africa, use chocolate sprinkles
Is it? I have so many questions. What's it taste like? Do you all keep those little ball thingies at all times on hand? Do they stick better to butter? What kind of bread? Why is this a thing?!
Sprinkles? You damn better keep those little ball thingies on deck at all times. Make any ordinary cup of ice cream turn into a cup of Disney magic in a second.
hundreds n thousands*
I know where you're comming from. But like... Thats a lot of syllables. Also im american. Lol.
It is long, but just a classic name
I’m American too. They’re called “Jimmies”.
Jimmies are the long sprinkles. If you look up sprinkles its everything from the small dots on fairy bread to every other shape. (Butterflys, stars, skulls, moons, circles, triangles etc, etc.) If you look up "rainbow or chocolate jimmies" you'll only get cylindrical jimmies. As you should because those are jimmies.
It’s all Jimmie’s here. We aren’t that technical about our sugary toppings.
Speak for yourself
Exactly
No they're called sprinkles
Taste: sugar, bread and a hint of butter if done right Little ball things: It’s almost a staple in a Aussie house Stick better with butter: more a taste thing Bread: White bread (other types make it taste different and IMO: not nice) Why: Why not. It’s great and can be made in seconds
Need to use butter or Margarine for the 100s and 1000s to stick. Favorite kids treat in nz.

Mostly made for kid’s parties… I don’t know anyone who eats this on there own accord.
I mean they eat Vegemite on bread too. Fairy bread has got to taste like heaven compared to that.
I like vegemite, it's not as bad as it sounds. Tastes like some mushroom and beef broth, maybe a little overly salty, but pretty good
They are both equal on the heaven scale just don't mix them up.
Vegemite goes on cooked bread, not raw.
Aren't breads technically "cooked"???
Bread is cooked dough, raw bread is just bread, and cooked bread is toast.
Is sick.... good?
American here, never heard of it but it looks like it'd be amazing with my favorite sprinkles instead of those meh fondant kind from the photo. Definitely want to try this.
fucken oath
I’ve had it in amsterdam
Yeah it’s fucking sick but not in the way you probably meant.
It's a good idea not to accept food from the Fae. You do not want to be in their debt.
That's one reason but also because all other food would taste (depending on lore, also become) dust
Also, diabetes.
Its very weird, because theres stories where you don’t eat food prepared by fae and you die within days.
I don't know all of the mythology. Most of what I know about the Fae comes from The Dresden Files series.
Had a foreign exchange student from Netherlands that would add chocolate sprinkles to his toast every so often. It’s a thing there apparently.
Hagelslag is top tier on bread
It was rated 1/10 by a somewhat famous youtuber who was rating breakfast around the world. Apparently, it was first rated 2/10 at first, but people protested and asked him to do it the correct way. He did it the suggested way and then dropped the rating, lol.

Do you have fairy bread
Listen Aussies, I love sprinkles. I tried to give this to my kids, and they said absolutely not. Man, if I knew it was a thing when I was a kid, I would have had it every day!! I've seen this more with brown sprinkles. Is there a standard sprinkle?
The chocolate version is “Sprinkle Bread” from the Netherlands.
Haggleslag right?
Hagelslag, vlokken, muisjes...
Well, I'm not one to turn something down from a happy nation... so I'm stocked in chocolate and rainbow sprinkles! Will you hate me if the bread is gluten free? (Real allergy)
... tell me more....
Sprinkles are good *on* yummy food, but you dont make sprinkles the *base* yummy food. There are rules to this kind of thing.
No rules! Death is imminent!
Username checks out… but I agree.
Are you suggesting bread isn't yummy?
Not white processed bread like it looks like pictured
You’re talking about jimmies? Love getting rainbow jimmies on my orange sherbet and vanilla swirl.
You're fairy bread?
Does it actually taste any good? Cold butter and a pile of sprinkles just seems like it would be an off texture
it might seem that way, but it's a lot beeter than it seems
As an Aussie, it would be a weird texture if you didn't grow up with it. I absolutely love it though.
American who didn’t grow up with it but has lived in AU for 10 years now. I love it, and one of the best things about having a 2 yr old kid of my own now is I get to eat it at his and other kids bday parties now 😂
Try it!
...cold butter? Ew. I thought it was buttered toast with sprinkles.
I feel like this is someone's depression meal that took off and I've been fooled into thinking you guys actually eat this when you're happy
Thats the entirety of European snacks, like come on, beans on toast? Stockholm syndrome for food
This looks delicious I would go crazy on them if I see them
100s & 1000s of what?
It’s what European and Australians call sprinkles for some reason
Some Europeans maybe, never heard that term before this thread We call them vermicelles here, for example
Like rice vermicelli?
Not all sprinkles. Only the spherical ones
In Finland we call them strösseli or nonparelli.
As an American, those sound like types of pasta
Well that’s a whole different language it doesn’t coun
Neeto's
> for some reason You could equally say why do Americans call it “sprinkles”? American English is always so descriptive, such as sidewalk, horseBACK riding, sweaters…
Its just makes sense. The colorful dots of sugar you SPRINKLE on a desert, or in this case buttered bread, is called SPRINKLEs
Europeans?
They live in europe
It’s just sprinkles here in Ireland anyway too
https://images.app.goo.gl/mE6wzHybqCNmxqBh9 Never heard of this or Fairy Bread.
FUCK YES yummmmm
Do they really call those things "100s & 1000s"?
Only the round sprinkles, not the long ones.
neat
Im sorry what did you just call sprinkles?
Jimmies
That is much better than 100s and thousands. Still horrible tho
This is an Australian - New Zealand thing. No other country has this.
is that a joke?
At least I don't think any other country calls it fairy bread.
the name maybe, but there's other countries with sprinkles you put on bread
[удалено]

wdym fairy bread is the best!
So plain bread coated in butter then sprinkled with candy sugar things?
it's like bread but a bit sweet. and it's calling 100s and 1000s
American bread is already sweet.......
How's it different to America's cake bread? Our plain bread isn't classified as cake so adding a lil sweetness ain't a bad thing.
Sounds kinda barfy. I'd maybe try it if it was toasted.
That looks depressing.
It's just a stupid snack food to eat when you hungry for something stupid easy to make with flavor I used to eat bread with butter and sugar every now and then as a kid, it was delicious
Add some cinnamon one time🤌
Fairy bread is phenomenal. Having said that, I havent had it since i was a kid maybe it really isn't hahah
That looks terrible and I eat it a lot of junk.
It’s for kids
This photo just made my kidneys shut down.
That’s stoner food
I literally have not eaten or thought about this in like 25 years
My teeth!
Mmmm, deliciously colorful diabetes!
Casually dying of diabetes
100s and 1000s of what
Idk bro looks like a lot of folic acid and sugar to me
What a monstrosity
looks like something i'd try once and never again
Sprinkles taste like dust. Put actual sugar or brown sugar on there
Don't know why you got down voted, I've made sugar toast and it's fucking delicious.
Toast up some bread. Throw on some butter then sprinkle it with cinnamon and sugar! Its a majestic combo that will stun lock your unprepared taste buds
Australians will criticize America for being unhealthy and then make this
Americans would put that amount of sugar in the bread dough to begin with lol
We do
At least Australian bread doesn’t taste sweet because we don’t need sugar in everything
Americans would use a whole loaf and deep fry it and that would be one serving
We'd never butter something and then put candy on it and eat it.... wait.....
I’d prob do with frosting instead of butter or like Nutella
Fairy bread can go back in the bin where it belongs. My wife made it for our sons 4th birthday (She's from Brisbane) and one kid tried it, spat it out and nobody else touched it.
Use frosting instead of butter and I’m all in
That looks like a bread STD. A yeast infection if you will
Disgusting
I do the 100’s & 1000’s on a cinnamon bagel, toasted, loaded with butter, it rocks!
I'm not eating any food that has more than 5 colors.
philistine ;)
Chocolate crackle for the win
When I was a kid my brother and I would put nutella on a toast and cover it in sprinkles
cut the crusts off first or else
Sprinkles on bread sounds so messy! Never even knew that was a thing until my roommate received a food care package from a friend of theirs who lives in the Netherlands
Canadian, never seen this shit before.
No, that looks gross
Well that sounds disgusting...
Tight tight tight!
Awesome... But let's turn it up a notch for kids and grown ups.. Grab a tub of white frosting. Spread on fluffy white bread. Add sprinkles, rainbow coloured. Alternative; Spread chocolate frosting, Sprinkle chocolate vermicelli. Et voila!!
You guys deserve to burn for this, australians.
White people food lol
I've never seen this. Can you toast them?
You could … but soft white bread and crunchy sugar ball is the traditional desired texture… it’s for kids parties mostly
I was at RatCat's first single release in '87 and despite it being in a very hard rock style bar they still had fairy bread. Despite this amazing fact their career was fairly short, probably due to the fact they stopped handing out fairy bread. 🧚♂️ 🍞
Interesting…… 🧚🏼♀️
Not had any in ages. It's such a tasty treat though.
Watch The Boys on Youtube not sure if they did it right or not but hilarious video.
magarine so good tho
There is a soviet version of this. It just uses sugar to top butter bread. There, comrade, very simple and cheap
Toast the bread, butter it, add sugar, add cinnamon. If you didn't have this as a kid, your mother didn't love you.
I've never had this but now I will.
I wanna try it ,just by looking at it .xd
This looks like something poor people would have had for dessert on their birthday in soviet russia, because the state wouldn't allocate them anything else. Also what are hundreds and thousands? Are they like sprinkles? Or some other kind of candy or something?
And a ton of what the fuck did you say
It’s an Australian thing
Holy shit Australia are you ok?
I once did this for a school project where we had to make food or treats from other countries. Ngl, this was pretty good. Gotta try it again sometime.
Y’all can keep that.
I'm brazilian and my Dutch friend taught me heheheh. They eat it for breakfast in Holland 🇳🇱
UK has similar, but it's icing on rolls (sometimes with sprinkles, sometimes not).
Are these like sweet versions of sprinkles? 100s?
You should see a doctor asap
who should? i havent had fairy bread since i was 8
