Saltsticks Big Hrus-Hrus Mania 150g

When one bag is not going to be enough. Hrus-Hrus Mania 150g is the larger, table-ready format of Bulgaria’s original pretzel stick — the same clean crunch that Mlin-97 JSC has been baking since 1976, now in a bag sized for sharing rather than surviving the commute.

About Hrus-Hrus Mania 150g

The Mania name reflects what this format is for: putting a bowl on the table and letting it disappear. At 150g, this is the go-to bag when the 60g single-serve (SKU: CR392) is not going to cut it — for family snack time, meze spreads, parties, or any occasion that calls for a proper bowl of soleti in the center of the table. The sticks inside are identical to the classic Hrus-Hrus: baked from wheat flour by Mlin-97 JSC in Bulgaria, leavened with bread yeast, finished with iodized salt crystals on a glossy surface.

Mlin-97 JSC has been Bulgaria’s original and leading pretzel stick manufacturer since 1976 — the company that invented the category in the Bulgarian market. The Hrus-Hrus range is certified to ISO 9001:2015, ISO 45001:2018, and FSSC 22000. No artificial flavors, no GMOs, no hydrogenated fats: just a clean, certified crunch imported directly to the USA.

How to Enjoy It

Pour into a wide bowl and set on the coffee table — it will be gone before you sit back down. For a Bulgarian meze spread, surround the bowl with wedges of sirene cheese, a jar of lutenitsa, a plate of Kalamata olives, and a few slices of Tandem sujuk. The Mania bag is also the right size for party snack tables, game nights, and any gathering where a single-serve bag would look apologetic. Cases of 26 bags are available for regular buyers and small businesses.

What Makes It Special

Almost fifty years after Mlin-97 JSC launched the first commercial pretzel stick in Bulgaria, the recipe has not changed because it does not need to. The Hrus-Hrus Classic formula — wheat flour, palm oil, iodized salt, yeast, sunflower lecithin — contains no artificial flavors, no GMOs, and no hydrogenated fats, and it is produced under internationally certified food safety conditions. The Mania format simply gives you more of it at once, which is the only improvement the bag needed.

Bulgarian Serving Tip

In Bulgaria the meze table is not a course — it is a mood. A bowl of hrus-hrus sits at the center alongside sirene cheese, olives, cold cuts, and whatever the host feels like adding that evening. The 150g Mania bag is exactly right for this: pour the whole thing into a wide ceramic bowl, set it between a plate of Tandem sujuk and a ramekin of lutenitsa, and pour the Rakia. The evening takes care of itself.

Pairs perfectly with: Bulgarian Sirene Cheese (Cheese department), Lutenitsa Classic (SKU: LHDER), Tandem Beef Sujuk (SKU: TM33), Tandem Lukanka (SKU: TM11).

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between Hrus-Hrus Mania 150g and the Hrus-Hrus 60g?

The product inside is identical — same classic Hrus-Hrus pretzel sticks from Mlin-97 JSC, same recipe, same crunch. The difference is format and occasion. The 60g bag (SKU: CR392) is a single-serve portion for lunchboxes, travel, and desk snacking. The 150g Mania bag is the shareable, table-ready format for meze spreads, family snacking, and gatherings. If you go through the 60g bags quickly, the Mania is the smarter buy.

Why is it called “Mania”?

The Mania branding signals the larger, go-big format of the Hrus-Hrus range — the bag you reach for when you want more than a single serving and plan to share. It reflects the same playful energy as the brand name itself (hrus-hrus being Bulgarian for crunch-crunch), applied to the format that encourages a full bowl rather than a careful portion.

Who makes Hrus-Hrus?

Hrus-Hrus is made by Mlin-97 JSC, a 100% private Bulgarian company that has been the country’s leading pretzel stick manufacturer since 1976 — when it introduced the first commercially produced pretzel stick in the Bulgarian market. The production facility holds ISO 9001:2015, ISO 45001:2018, and FSSC 22000 certifications.

Do these contain artificial flavors, GMOs, or hydrogenated fats?

No to all three. Hrus-Hrus is made without artificial flavors, without GMOs, and without hydrogenated fats. Ingredients: wheat flour, water, palm oil, iodized salt, compressed bread yeast, sunflower lecithin (emulsifier), raising agent.

Is this a good option for a party or event snack table?

Yes — the 150g bag is well-suited to party tables, meze spreads, and catered events. Cases of 26 bags are available for bulk buyers and small businesses looking for a consistent, affordable Bulgarian snack option with strong brand recognition in the Eastern European community.

Is this product imported from Bulgaria?

Yes. Hrus-Hrus Mania 150g is manufactured by Mlin-97 JSC in Bulgaria and imported directly to the USA by Malincho. Country of Manufacture: Bulgaria.
