VIDEOThe best of both worlds? Oliebollen and alcohol: a perfect combination, Wendy Knubben must have thought. Last year she already introduced her oliebol with limoncello. A huge success. Now she’s selling one with a new flavor called the Martini Pornstar Sphere.

,,It is really tasty”, judges Knubben, who sells the new bulbs from her pastry stall on the Nieuwe Ommoordseweg in Rotterdam. She started experimenting this summer. Which booze globe should be the new hit this year? The filling is very tasty. And he looks nice! There is a pipette with prosecco in it. In terms of taste, it really resembles the drink.” The ball contains Passoã, vanilla vodka and passion fruit, just like in the cocktail Pornstar Martini. At the oliebol the name is reversed.

Knubben hesitated for a moment about what name to give the sphere. ,,At first I thought Pornstar, but then I thought: Martini must be there. Otherwise it sounds so wrong, I just have an oliebollen stall, don’t you”, she says with a laugh.

Last year she also introduced an oliebol with drink. Then it was about the LimonGerso bol, with liqueur made in Rotterdam. The Ready 2 Rumbol was added to that. With, the name says it all, a filling of rum. These bulbs are also still in the range.
,,Especially the one with limoncello was a great success. A joke out of the blue and I thought: I’ll just try it. People were already at the stall at 09:00 in the morning to buy those bulbs! I didn’t see that coming.” The latest bulb has a different taste. “It cannot be compared, this one is sweeter and fruity.”
Incidentally, the cocktail filling is only injected after baking. ,,Then the taste and the alcohol percentage just remain good. I fry the oliebol first, then I cut it open and inject the cocktail into it. It’s something different, such a drink ball!”
