In de Soete Suykerbol: pure city pride in sweet form

Gable sweets, Alkmaarse schaapjes, love tea and the Waeghalsje: the old town's sweet shop.

Walk through Alkmaar's old town and you can't miss it: In de Soete Suykerbol, the sweet shop where the city keeps its own sweet history. The name alone says it all - a suikerbol is the classic Alkmaar biscuit for new births.

The shop makes products you can't get anywhere else: gable-shaped sweets, the well-known Alkmaarse schaapjes, Liefdesthee (love tea) and the Waeghalsje, its own little liqueur. Everything breathes city pride, without becoming folkloric.

What's special is that these products are genuinely from here: developed in and for Alkmaar, with stories tied to the city. A gable sweet from any other city simply doesn't exist.

In our boxes, De Soete Suykerbol provides the most local sweet moment: candy you can only taste in Alkmaar.
