Muisjes (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈmœyʃəs]; translated little mice) are a traditional Dutch open-faced sandwich topping. While customary on bread their most typical use is on beschuit or rusk. Muisjes are made of aniseed sprinkles with a sugared and colored outer layer. Muisjes meaning little mice in Dutch are named because the anise seed sprinkles are shaped like little mice with the stem of the anise seed resembling a tail. They are made by one company only De Ruijter.
