Eurovision is coming up, what Austrian food can I buy for the event?

Hi all,
My wife and I will be watching the Eurovision tomorrow, and we would like to theme our food choices for the evening- preferably to the hosting nation?
Snacks options are best but will consider anything relevant, and obviously that I can either buy in the UK or simply make at home without much faff.
TIA

I initially read that as Australian and felt the urge to say shrimps and barbies... Oops, too late

As long as you said it like Lloyd

Käsespätzle, Apfelstrudel, Topfenstrudel, Sachertorte, Kartoffelklöße.

I was in Vienna last week. 100% snitzel and apple strudel. Its white asparagus season there too and its meant to be very good. If you drink they also have some amazing beers. I had never seen a beer vending machine or have had a free beer in the hotel fridge before

Grüner Veltliner white wine to go with the cheeses. I know you asked for food but you might want authentic Austrian drink too.

Get some Austrian cheeses

There are many Austrian dishes involving sausage.

Wiener Schnitzel would be easy to make.
If you're a decent baker you might be able to manage a Kaisersemmerl.
And if you mix coke and Fanta you could probably approximate Mezzo Mix.

you can get an apple strudel in most supermarkets.

Mozartkugel or Manner Schnitten would be my choice 😁

Schnitzel, obviously! This can be eaten in a crispy bread roll rather than with chips. Mini schnitzel sandwiches as sliders?
Sachertorte for a cake option.
Spezi for a drink (50% orange Fanta, 50% cola) - it’s not specifically Austrian but I’ve only ever seen it there and in Germany.

Schnitzel are fairly easy to make.
