King’s Day 2026: A Little Bit of the Netherlands in Hong Kong

If you follow Dutch culture, you’ve probably seen how King’s Day in the Netherlands turns the whole country into one big orange street party.

On 27 April, cities fill with music, open‑air markets, and boats drifting along the canals, while people in orange T‑shirts, hats, and even full outfits walk around with plates of snacks and drinks, treating the day like one long, informal celebration. It’s social, colorful, and very food‑centric; the perfect occasion to enjoy a Dutch‑style snack spread.

For anyone celebrating King's Day in Hong Kong, bringing a few Dutch favourites to the table is an easy way to join the fun. Orange‑themed treats, familiar Dutch brands, and ready‑to‑serve snacks instantly set the mood, whether you’re planning a small office party, a casual get‑together, or a thoughtful gift box for clients or friends.

Dutch Snacks & Pastries

Tompouces – soft pastries filled with thick custard and topped with bright orange icing, the classic King’s Day treat and an instant visual highlight.

Stroopwafels from brands like Daelmans  – thin, caramel‑filled waffles that pair perfectly with tea or coffee.

Bitterballen and croquettes from Kwekkeboom and similar Dutch producers – crunchy on the outside, rich on the inside, just like the street snacks you’d find in Amsterdam.

Dutch cheese selections featuring Gouda, Edam, or Leerdammer – convenient snack‑sized portions ideal for sharing.

Chocolate & Sweets

Chocomel, Tony’s Chocolonely, Dutch chocolate eggs, and classic biscuit assortments bring that comforting café‑style feel to any King’s Day celebration.

Ready‑Made Snack Boxes & Hampers

For gifting or effortless hosting, ready‑made Dutch hampers featuring stroopwafels, cheese, chocolate, and biscuits make it easy to share the fun of King’s Day — and offer a taste of the Netherlands wherever you are.
