Right off the bat, it’s worth pointing out that Bauhaus pretzels are the rare example of when an image on the packaging matches the actual size of the product inside. And with customers claiming “I would absolutely eat it by myself,” and going as far as to say, “Hide it from the family, in fact,” it’s safe to assume these pretzels are worth the purchase.
“I would share, but I could definitely eat one to myself with some yummy vegan cheese dip or vegan mustard dip or even better both dips,” another excited fan chimed in.

According to the directions on the box, Bauhaus pretzels need to be thawed overnight before heating in an oven at 350°F for roughly 20-minutes. Keep in mind that due to their large size, an 18-inch by 13-inch sheet pan will be needed. Additionally, you’ll want to brush each pretzel with water and sprinkle it with salt before baking. And if you have an air fryer large enough to fit one, that will work just as well!
If you’re in the mood for an incredibly crisp on the outside, soft and fluffy on the inside fresh-baked pretzel worthy of any beer garden or baseball game, a trip to Costco is certainly in the cards. Just be sure to snag a good mustard or cheese dip while you’re at it. And if you really want to take these pretzels to the next level, Bauhaus suggests cutting one in half around the hemisphere and loading it up with your favorite toppings to make a delicious pretzel sandwich.
