Choose aniseed sprinkles only if the ingredients and any cross-contamination warning on the current packaging are suitable for the allergen you need to avoid. According to Albert Heijn’s product information, De Ruijter Celebration Sprinkles, Pink and White Sprinkles and Blue and White Sprinkles contain wheat and cereals containing gluten, so don’t choose these varieties if you need to avoid either. If you only need sprinkles for one occasion, check the net weight too: the 270 g and 330 g packs shown are not confirmed single portions.
Albert Heijn lists wheat and cereals containing gluten for the De Ruijter Celebration Sprinkles, Pink and White Sprinkles and Blue and White Sprinkles checked. This means these varieties are not suitable if you need to avoid wheat or cereals containing gluten.
Compare the current ingredients list with the specific allergen that matters to you. Also check whether the packaging carries a warning about possible cross-contamination.
If you only use a small amount of sprinkles, the net weight matters. The product information from Albert Heijn and Jumbo mentioned here shows packs of 270 g or 330 g, not a confirmed individually packed portion.
First, identify the allergen you need to avoid, then check all the information on the packaging. Only once it’s suitable for you does pack size become a useful next consideration.
| What to consider | What to check | Who should pay particular attention? |
|---|---|---|
| The allergen to avoid | Check the ingredients and allergen information on the current packaging for the exact variety. Albert Heijn lists wheat and cereals containing gluten for the three De Ruijter varieties mentioned. | If I need to avoid wheat, I don’t want to choose sprinkles with wheat as an ingredient. Around 46% of consumers prioritise excluding their own allergen. |
| Possible cross-contamination | Check whether the packaging warns that your allergen may be present. | Even if my allergen isn’t listed as an ingredient, I want to know whether accidental contact during production could be a factor. This warning is the main consideration for around 36% of consumers. |
| Pack size | Compare the net weight and best-before information; don’t assume it’s a single portion unless the packaging confirms this. | I only use a small amount of sprinkles, so I want to choose a quantity that suits me. A small pack is the main preference for around 18% of consumers. |
For the pink and white, blue and white, and celebration sprinkles described by Albert Heijn, wheat and cereals containing gluten are listed. So, for these varieties, the colour doesn’t tell you whether they’re suitable if you need to avoid wheat or gluten.
Check the ingredients and allergen information for the exact variety you’re buying, even if you know another colour from the same brand.
Ingredients and allergen information can change. Albert Heijn points out that the correct allergy information is on the packaging.
Use the product page to narrow down your options, then read the packaging before use. If anything is unclear, ask the manufacturer or retailer for more information.
A warning such as ‘may contain nuts’ refers to possible accidental presence and may be relevant even if nuts aren’t listed as an ingredient.
Check whether the warning mentions your allergen, and don’t base your choice on the ingredients list alone.
Albert Heijn provides product information for Celebration Sprinkles, Pink and White Sprinkles and Blue and White Sprinkles. Check the exact variety and current packaging, not just the brand name.
No, not the Celebration Sprinkles, Pink and White Sprinkles or Blue and White Sprinkles described by Albert Heijn: all three list wheat and cereals containing gluten. Check the physical packaging too, as product information can change.
No. Use the page to narrow down your options, then check the current packaging before use. Albert Heijn says the correct allergy information is on the packaging.
It indicates possible accidental presence, rather than nuts having been deliberately added as an ingredient. Check whether the allergen mentioned is relevant to you and, if anything is unclear, ask the manufacturer for more information.
