    This intimate museum dates from 1658. The original bakery, with its authentic bread oven and beautiful marbled floor, is full of tempting goodies. The name of the museum comes from the Duivekater, a famous Zaanse sweet bread. taste the Duivekater in the bakery, along with other traditional Dutch baked products and confectioneries. The bakery was donated to the Zaanse Schans in 1970 by the Zaanse company Koninklijke Wessanen nv. It originally stood on Hazepad in Zaandijk.

    The best waffle I've ever tasted. Very sweet iced coffee is not recommended. It is a place that transports you back in time, love it.

    A cute little Dutch bakery museum. This museum is often overlooked, so don't miss it when you pass by.

  • 5/5 Edwin S. 9 months ago on Google • 759 reviews
    The museum has a small shop selling freshly made stroopwafels. It was a nice snack to bring around while walking around the area.

    (Translated by Google) Nice to be a tourist in your own country. Here you can taste the most diverse local cheeses. Recommended: blue lavender cheese! (Original) Leuk om eens toerist in eigen land te zijn. Hier kun je de meest uiteenlopende lokale kazen proeven. Aanrader: blauwe lavendelkaas!

    (Translated by Google) Mills, flour, pastries. Since the Netherlands is famous for its mills, they have been fine with flour since ancient times. A great place to look at the slowly rotating windmills is no worse than how the fire burns or the water flows (here, by the way, there is plenty of water too). It is very reassuring. Well, of course, it is interesting to plunge into history and at the same time try traditional sweets. You can also buy souvenirs. (Original) Мельницы, мука, выпечка. Поскольку Нидерланды славятся своими мельницами, у них со стародавних времен все хорошо с мукой. Отличное место, смотреть на медленно вращаюшиеся ветряки не хуже чем на то как горит огонь или течет вода (воды тут кстати тоже в достатке). Это действует очень успокаивающе. Ну и само собой интересто окунуться в историю и заодно попробовать традиционные вкусняшки. Также можно прикупить сувениры.

  • 5/5 Evangelin S. 1 year ago on Google
    Delicious stroopwafle I have tasted. It was served warm, complemented with the 10 degree Celsius weather while walking around. It was priced at 1 euro per piece (50 cents more than the Chocolate House opposite), however, it was worth the price! U can get a bag of 8 pieces for 3 euros (but not warm 😆).

  • 5/5 Ashley P. 1 year ago on Google
    That apple beignet is so delicious I almost walked back for a second. Honestly probably the tastiest dessert I've had in Holland. Currently prices 2.25 euro. For awareness, toilet is not available here although there is a sit down component.

    Such a cute little bakery house! I love everything about Zaanse Schans, and this bakery is just one of the little houses there. They give free recipes and the staff wore traditional outfits too so you can take pictures with them.

  • 5/5 Airiss C. 5 years ago on Google
    Free museum at the back, and fresh daily treats to buy in the middle of the house. Try the cheese biscuit and the almond cookie and enjoy it in the living room section!

  • 5/5 Martina F. 4 years ago on Google
    When you find yourself in Zaanse Schans and it starts raining, find a spot in the gorgeous tea room of the bakery museum. Accurately furnished with old bakery tools, maintained the cupboard where people used to sleep and turned it into a tiny spot for a table. Amazing to see how to make ginger biscuits. You cannot definitely miss the appel beignet.
