The pretzel from pretzel world reminds me of what i’ve been missing. It’s been so long since i’ve had pretzel, and an actual good one, this one was it!

I only tried one of their flavors, but they have many more options that I must try next. So I will definitely be back for more 🥨😍

E: They say that the sense of smell is the first sense that a baby develops in the womb. However, on a day my brother and I hiked all the way out to Southland Westfield, it was smell that was the very sense that lead us straight to Pretzel World.

Coming down the nearby escalator, our noses were met with the most glorious scent. It was warm and smelled like a bakery freshly opening in the morning with the aroma of freshly baked goods streaming out of the oven. We looked around, guided by the buzzing sound of a long line of chirpy customers (the second of our senses) to direct us to Pretzel World, and our eyes -the third sense- landed on the stand.

As we approached, we were met with the most delicious-looking variety of pretzel flavours and we deliberated which we were going to try. Should we go for savoury? Or sweet? What about a pizza pretzel? Perhaps a cheese pretzel? A chocolate-covered pretzel? The choices were almost too overwhelming, but we decided on the Dutch Chocolate.

Greeted by a lady who was excited by our choice (almost as excited as we were), we watched intently as another staff member covered our warm-and-soft-and-fresh-out-the-oven pretzel was drowned in melted chocolate and covered in hundreds and thousands (10/10 service, just for drenching our pretzel in toppings, by the way). By now, we were absolutely salivating.

As it was time to eat, the fourth sense of Touch was an experience in its own. My fingers were drenched in chocolate and met with the warmth and softness of the pretzel within. And finally, it was time for the fifth and final sense to come into play - taste. And god, it was absolutely delicious. The chocolate was gloriously rich in flavour, dripping and warm and so very- Dutch. The pretzel itself was so fresh and soft and I wish I could eat it all over again. Can you tell I’m a sweets girl?

After my experience at Pretzel World, all I can say is that I wish there were more chains closer to home. Actually I don’t - I’d easily eat the whole stand without a second thought. I suppose its 100% worth the 1 hour drive out. I’d go back again just for a bite of that pretzel.
