Fazer Crispbread Brings Finnish Flavour to Australia

Fazer Crispbread has long been a staple in Finland, celebrated for its wholesome ingredients and satisfying crunch. With the relaunch, four distinctive varieties are set to inspire endless topping possibilities: the classic Rye, the robust Dark Rye, the herbaceous Rye & Rosemary, and the subtly sweet Rye & Roasted Pepper. Each one is a canvas waiting for your culinary creativity.

The original Rye crispbread is as iconic as the Finnish winters that inspire it, offering a hearty base with a mildly nutty flavour. This variety is perfect for layering with savoury toppings like prosciutto, fresh mozzarella, and cherry tomatoes finished with a drizzle of basil oil. Or, keep it simple with a swipe of peanut butter for a quick, kid-friendly snack.

Dark Rye takes things deeper with a rich, earthy profile developed through slow baking. Its bold flavour stands up to creamy toppings, making it the ultimate base for smashed avocado with a perfectly poached egg. This is the answer to your brunch ambitions, effortlessly replacing toast in style and substance.

For a crispbread with a touch of elegance, Rye & Rosemary brings a fragrant freshness that enhances both sweet and savoury combinations. Pair it with whipped ricotta, blackberries, and a hint of honey for a delicately balanced treat. Alternatively, a dollop of herbed cream cheese with smoked salmon and dill transforms it into a gourmet appetiser.

Finally, Rye & Roasted Pepper offers a delicate sweetness that pairs beautifully with creamy and tangy flavours. Top it with seasoned cherry tomatoes, caramelised onions, and a slice of gooey brie for a snack that feels indulgent yet grounded in wholesome ingredients.

What sets Fazer Crispbread apart is its versatility. Whether as the centrepiece of a grazing platter, a quick pick-me-up between meals, or the foundation for a light lunch, these crispbreads deliver both flavour and functionality. They’re also high in fibre and protein while keeping carbs low, ticking the boxes for modern health-conscious eaters.

Viking Imports Managing Director Ivan Markovic highlights the community’s love for these crispbreads, noting how customers have turned them into vehicles for creativity. "From simple combinations to intricate masterpieces, Fazer Crispbread has become a kitchen essential for anyone looking to add texture and flavour to their meals," he says.

Available at independent stores nationwide, Fazer Crispbread’s relaunch invites Australians to explore Nordic-inspired snacking in new and exciting ways. Whether you’re topping them with fresh produce or layering on indulgent spreads, the options are limited only by your imagination.
