Colombian Snacks We Miss in New Zealand

If you grew up in Colombia, you know that deep craving for those snacks from home that are hard (or impossible) to find in New Zealand. But good news — some of them you can buy online, and others you can find in our Miramar store at 29 Miramar Avenue, inside New World Fuel.

Below is a list of Colombian snacks we all miss, where to get them, and how to make them part of your Kiwi pantry again.


1. Saltín Noel Crackers – Classic Colombian Snack in New Zealand

Crispy, light, and a little salty — Saltín Noel is the cracker every Colombian grew up with. It’s the companion to family breakfasts, afternoon coffee, and that late-night “algo” when you just need a quick bite.

Spread them with cheese or butter, dip them into hot chocolate, or simply enjoy them plain — every crunch takes you back home..

👉 Add Saltín Noel to your Kiwi pantry and rediscover a taste of tradition.


2. Cake Bar Ramo (Mixed Berries Jam) – A Sweet Colombian Treat

Soft sponge cake filled with a layer of tangy mixed berries jam, wrapped in a smooth chocolate coating. The Cake Bar is one of those Colombian inventions that feels simple but always hits the spot.

For many of us, it was the snack you’d grab quickly at the corner shop or the little surprise packed in a school lunchbox. Sweet, fruity, and chocolatey all in one bite.

👉 Add Cake Bar to your cart and enjoy a taste of Colombia’s creativity here in New Zealand.


3. Pony Malta – Colombia’s Favorite Malt Drink

Sweet, malty, and full of energy — Pony Malta has been fueling Colombians for generations. Whether after school, during a football game, or just a hot afternoon, this drink brings back instant memories.

It’s not soda, it’s not juice — it’s its own category. A flavor so unique that every Colombian abroad longs for it. Open one in New Zealand, and it’s like being transported back to childhood.

👉 Best enjoyed cold, straight from the bottle.


4. Chocorramo – The Iconic Colombian Snack Cake

If there’s one snack that defines Colombian childhood, it’s Chocorramo. A fluffy slice of cake coated in rich chocolate — found in every school canteen, every road trip, every memory.

Ask any Colombian abroad, and they’ll tell you: this isn’t just a snack, it’s part of who we are. Having a Chocorramo in New Zealand means having a piece of Colombia in your hands.

👉 Grab one, unwrap, and enjoy that timeless bite of home.
