Power Balletjes, Cheesecake & Filled Dates
Looking for a Sinterklaas gift that goes beyond chocolate letters and pepernoten? At ADA bakes we make everything fresh and by hand, in a small kitchen in Almere — 100% plant-based — largely without added sugar, except for the chocolate finishes. Our Power Balletjes fit effortlessly in a shoe, our Dubai Pistachio Cheesecake is a lovely finale for the gift-night dessert, and our filled dates are a luxurious surprise, sweet by nature instead of from sugar. An honest gift, for your partner, children, colleagues or the whole class.
For businesses
Sinterklaas isn't only for the children — more and more companies surprise their team or customers with a healthy, artisan gift instead of standard chocolate letters. A few boxes of Power Balletjes, cheesecake or filled dates? Just order via the webshop. Ordering for a whole team — from 10 boxes — and want an invoice in your company's name, a personal card, or delivery to one address or per employee? Message us directly and we'll arrange it.
For the shoe — or for the whole class
Pistachio, Chocolate Pistachio, Cinnamon Spice, Dark Brownie or Lemon Zest — five flavours to choose from, made from dates, nuts and coconut instead of E-numbers. Four flavours (Pistachio, Cinnamon Spice, Dark Brownie, Lemon Zest) are without added sugar; Chocolate Pistachio contains sugar via the thin layer of dark chocolate. Choose the quantity yourself: 4 pieces (€8,90) is exactly the size for a shoe gift, 10 pieces (from €19,90) for a small group or the family. For an average school class (around 30 children) combine three boxes of 10 in different flavours — more fun for the class than one flavour, from €59,70 together — so shipped for free.
Order Power Balletjes →For the gift-night dessert
Handmade, plant-based and lactose-free — with a filling of organic coconut milk and cashew nuts, finished with pistachio and a thin layer of dark chocolate ganache. A cake to cut together after unwrapping the presents, instead of yet another bag of chocolate letters.
Order the Cheesecake →Another gift idea
A luxurious surprise, sweet by nature instead of from sugar: Natural (filled with pistachio, walnut, cashew and almond) or With Dark Chocolate, finished with a layer of dark chocolate — freshly filled, in a box of 10, 100% plant-based and lactose-free.
Order Filled Dates →Our Power Balletjes are a surprise that fits in a shoe just as well as a pepernoot, but with dates, nuts and coconut instead of sugar. Five flavours (Pistachio, Chocolate Pistachio, Cinnamon Spice, Dark Brownie, Lemon Zest), 100% plant-based. Four of the five flavours (Pistachio, Cinnamon Spice, Dark Brownie, Lemon Zest) are without added sugar; only Chocolate Pistachio contains sugar, from the thin layer of dark chocolate.
You choose a flavour and a quantity yourself — the smallest option starts from €8,90, well within a shoe-gift budget.
Absolutely, our Dubai Pistachio Cheesecake (12 pieces, €48,00) is a handmade, plant-based cake you can cut together after unwrapping the presents — with a filling of organic coconut milk and cashew nuts, no cream cheese.
Yes, everything we make is 100% plant-based and therefore lactose-free. We make our products without gluten-containing ingredients, but prepare everything in a kitchen where gluten-containing products are also present — may contain traces of gluten due to environmental contact. Not recommended for people with coeliac disease or a severe gluten allergy.
Yes, the Power Balletjes (energy balls) can be ordered in boxes of 4 or 10, in any flavour. For an average class (around 30 children) combine three boxes of 10 in different flavours — from €59,70 together — so shipped for free, and more fun than one flavour for the whole class.
Yes, we ship across the Netherlands (shipping €5,95, free from €50). The Power Balletjes keep for 2 weeks in the fridge, so you can safely order those well in advance. The cheesecake is more delicate: we ship it in a regular box, without a cool box. During the Sinterklaas rush we count on 1–2 working days of PostNL delivery time instead of the usual next day — so order the cheesecake by 1 December at the latest. Put it in the fridge straight after receiving it; it will then keep for at least another week.
Leave your message in the order notes at checkout and we'll write it out for you — no extra wrapping needed, the gift already arrives festively wrapped.
Absolutely — our filled dates are a luxurious, healthy surprise that goes down well all year round, not tied to one moment. Freshly filled, 100% plant-based and lactose-free, in a box of 10.
Absolutely, and it happens more often than you'd think: companies order Power Balletjes, cheesecake or filled dates from us for colleagues and customers, as an alternative to the standard Christmas-hamper chocolate letter. A few boxes you simply order via the webshop. For a whole team (from 10 boxes), an invoice in your company's name, a personal card, or delivery to one address or per employee: message us directly on 06-86224504.
In time for 5 December?
Freshly made in Almere, shipped across the Netherlands.
