Rusk and little mice...

In The Netherlands, at the birth of a child, the traditional treat for visitors is rusk layered with butter and anice seed  sprinkles. The sprinkles are referred to as 'little mice' due to their shape. In the old days the sprinkles were white, in later years the sprinkles were pink and white. It's only since a few decades now that we can also buy blue and white sprinkles. According to this Wikipedia page the orange and white sprinkles were for sale on one occasion only, when the eldest daughter of our present king was born.

In the middle of this table is a plate with white chocolates with pink aniceseed sprinkles.
