Fairy Bread

When my friend Lisa from Australia started talking about “Fairy Bread” with “Hundreds and Thousands” I had no idea what she was talking about! Her explanation has turned into one of the boys’ favourite treats. Once you see the recipe, you’ll understand why!

What is Fairy Bread? Bread spread with butter with sprinkles (known as hundreds and thousands in Australia) on the top!




The word Fairy Bread is thought to have come from A Child’s Garden of Verses by Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894).

COME up here, O dusty feet!
Here is fairy bread to eat.
Here in my retiring room,
Children, you may dine
On the golden smell of broom
And the shade of pine;
And when you have eaten well,
Fairy stories hear and tell.

Directions:

Spread margarine onto slices of bread. Cover with sprinkles. Cut into triangles to serve.
