Danish Cookie Review
If we look at some customer reviews, the average response is positive and satisfying by giving 4 – 5 stars. In Indonesia, we have many popular danish biscuits, known as Danish Monde Butter Cookies or what we commonly call Monde Biscuits. Danisa Butter Cookies itself is under the auspices of PT Nissin Biscuit Indonesia.
This Monde Biscuit is famous for its crispy, soft, and crunchy texture in the mouth. Matter of taste, no doubt with good taste. Monde biscuits themselves consist of 5 different types of biscuits. Each is a vanilla ring, Swedish style, Norwegian style, raisin cakes, and Finnish style. For Norwegian and vanilla styles, the two types of biscuits don’t have toppings. In contrast to the type of Swedish style and Finnish style, where given a sprinkling of sugar and raisins.
The vanilla and Norwegian styles have a soft texture, and have a savory and delicious taste. Both types of cookies are very suitable if added with a glass of fresh warm tea. Overall, the texture of the Danish Biscuits Cookies is a bit hard but crispy.
