If you want sealed portions to take with you or hand out, choose packs with individually sealed sachets, but check that they really are consumer packs. For sharing during games night, you could also open several individual bags as needed, or choose a resealable bag if you want to portion the almonds yourself. Compare the contents of each bag and the ingredients too: a larger pack isn’t automatically a multipack.
You want to share almonds at the table without opening your whole supply at once. Compare smaller sharing bags with a resealable bag, and think about how many sealed packs you want to use during the evening.
You want to take portions with you after games night or weigh out different amounts yourself. It matters whether the almonds come in individually sealed sachets or in a larger bag that you portion yourself.
You’re looking for almonds to serve at the table and enjoy later. Compare the exact variety, such as unsalted or savoury roasted, and check the packaging rather than relying on a general flavour description.
A good fit when: you want to give each player a sealed sachet or take portions with you unopened.
Keep in mind: the weight of each sachet is fixed. A supplier listing for 30 g and a case of 8 × 4 × 30 g doesn’t prove that a consumer multipack is available.
A good fit when: you’d rather open a new bag as needed during the evening.
Keep in mind: bags bought separately don’t automatically make a multipack, and a 125 g bag isn’t automatically an individual portion.
A good fit when: you want to weigh out different amounts for the table and lunchboxes.
Keep in mind: you portion the contents yourself; resealability doesn’t make an opened bag unopened again.
| What to consider | What should you look for? | Who is this important for? |
|---|---|---|
| Bags for sharing | Check how many individually sealed bags there are and the weight of each one. Separate bags don’t automatically make a multipack. | If I want to open new sachets for different rounds, I look at how many sealed packs there are; around 25% of consumers put sharing at the table first. |
| Portions for lunchboxes | Check whether the sachets are individually sealed, how many grams they contain and whether you need to weigh out portions yourself. | If I want to prepare portions in advance, it matters whether I can take sealed sachets with me or need to portion them myself; around 25% of consumers put taking food with them and portioning it first. |
| Preparation and flavour | Read the exact variety and check the ingredients and nutritional information; unroasted, unsalted and roasted are different characteristics. | If I’m looking for a particular flavour or an unsalted variety, I check the product name and packaging; around 19% of consumers put flavour and salt choice first. |
| Quantity and storage | Compare the total weight with how much you want to use, and follow the storage advice on the packaging. | If I don’t want to be left with unused stock, I match the quantity to how I plan to use and store it; around 19% of consumers want to match the amount they buy to how they’ll use it. |
| Ingredients and allergens | Check the ingredients and precautionary warnings on the packaging, and keep this information available when serving. | If there are guests for whom the ingredients matter, I want to be able to check the product information; around 12% of consumers put ingredients and allergens first. |
A product containing several bags could be a nut mix rather than almonds alone. The product listing for Duyvis Oven Roasted Tree Nuts includes cashews, peanuts and 24% almonds.
Check the full ingredients list and make sure the contents are right for what you want to serve.
Otherwise, you could buy a different mix of ingredients from the one your guests expect or can eat.
Duyvis describes Almonds Original as a 125 g pack. That weight alone doesn’t tell you how many individual portions you can make.
Distinguish between pack size and the amount you want to serve; weigh out the almonds if you want to make portions of a fixed size.
A bundle listing doesn’t prove that it’s available now. The Foodello listing for four 125 g packs of Duyvis gave a best-before date of 27 September 2025.
Check the current product information and best-before date before you order.
A resealable bag is still open once you’ve opened it. The Netherlands Nutrition Centre gives separate storage advice for opened, unsalted almonds.
Seal the bag after portioning and follow the storage advice; also check the contents for any changes in quality.
If you don’t seal or store the remaining almonds properly, their quality may deteriorate.

Work out how many grams you want to set aside for games night and lunchboxes, then divide that by the weight of each bag. Round the number of bags up. If you’re buying a multipack, also check how many individually sealed inner packs it contains; a supplier’s outer case isn’t the same as a consumer pack.
The Netherlands Nutrition Centre says opened, unsalted almonds can be kept for six months in a kitchen cupboard and one year in the freezer; their quality may deteriorate after that. Check the contents for rancidity, chewiness or mould, and follow the storage advice for the specific product. These timeframes don’t automatically apply to every seasoned variety.
Yes. According to the Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority, allergen information for prepacked products must appear on the label. This tells you about the product’s ingredients; it isn’t a certification that the product is suitable for every guest, so check the packaging.
Yes. The Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority states that the rules on warnings about allergen cross-contamination have applied since 1 January 2026. This precautionary labelling is separate from allergens present as ingredients.
Before using the product, check the exact variety and the information on the packaging. Albert Heijn and PLUS point out that product information can change and advise shoppers to read the packaging, so don’t rely solely on a previous purchase.
