For a shared office occasion, you can choose a 330 g box, a smaller 270 g box of crushed aniseed sprinkles, or several individual boxes. The last option gives you more in total, but it isn’t a multipack with individually portioned servings. Match the quantity and colour to the occasion, and check the label on the pack you’ve bought before serving.
You want to estimate in advance how many aniseed sprinkles you’ll need for a lunch or a treat. PLUS describes one 330 g box of pink and white sprinkles as containing around 22 servings; the actual number you get depends on how much you serve each time.
You choose a colour to suit the occasion. The 330 g boxes of pink and white and blue and white sprinkles are separate variants, so decide which colour you want before ordering.
You’re looking for a smaller quantity per opened box and want colleagues to be able to check the ingredients. Keep the current pack available when serving so people can check the allergen information.
First, decide how many sprinkles you want to share and whether you need one box or several. Then choose the variant that suits the occasion and check the packaging before serving.
| What to consider | What to check when buying | Who it matters to |
|---|---|---|
| Quantity to share | Compare the 270 g and 330 g sizes, and check whether you’re buying one box or several packs. | If I’m buying for a team lunch, I want enough to share without mistaking individual boxes for separately portioned servings. For around 46% of consumers, having enough to share is the top priority. |
| Colour and occasion | Check which colour variant you’re choosing and whether it suits the planned occasion. | For a shared treat, I want to choose a colour the organiser is happy with. Colour and occasion are the first things around 27% of consumers consider. |
| Ingredients and serving | Check the current label for ingredients and allergens, and decide how much to serve at a time. | For a shared snack table, I want colleagues to be able to see what’s in the sprinkles. Around 27% of consumers give this check priority. |
A box to share isn’t the same as a bundle or a set of individually portioned servings. The 330 g blue and white Joybuy variant is listed as a single pack.
Check the number of packs when you order. If you need more than one box, decide how many individual boxes you want to use.
Pink and white and blue and white sprinkles add different splashes of colour. A variant that suits one celebration may not be the right choice for another office occasion.
Agree the colour with the organiser in advance, then check the contents and ingredients of the variant you’ve chosen.
The product listings for the pink and blue and white variants mention wheat. Ingredients can change, so an earlier listing is no substitute for checking the label on the pack you’ve bought.
Read the label before serving and keep the packaging available. According to the Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority, allergens must be listed on the label of prepacked foods.
Aniseed sprinkles are a sweet topping for foods such as bread or crispbread. Choosing sprinkles doesn’t tell you what else your colleagues might want to eat.
Decide what you’re putting the topping out for, and choose any other snack options separately to suit the occasion.
The ranges at Albert Heijn, Jumbo and PLUS feature De Ruijter aniseed sprinkles, including 270 g boxes of crushed sprinkles and 330 g boxes in assorted colours.
This order compares a pink and white box for sharing, a blue and white colour variant and a smaller box of crushed aniseed sprinkles, based on size and occasion. It isn’t a sales ranking or an independent product test.
| Position | Product | Features | Why it appears in this position | Retailer |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | De Ruijter pink and white aniseed sprinkles 330 g | Pink and white aniseed sprinkles, 330 g. | PLUS describes this box as containing around 22 servings. This makes the listing useful when planning a shared occasion, although the number you get depends on how much you serve. | PLUS |
| 2 | De Ruijter Blue & White Muisjes 330 g | Blue and white aniseed sprinkles, 330 g; single pack. | The Joybuy listing offers a different colour for a themed occasion. Its position doesn’t indicate a difference in quality or popularity. | Joybuy |
| 3 | De Ruijter crushed aniseed sprinkles 270 g | Crushed aniseed sprinkles, 270 g. | Jumbo and PLUS list this smaller size. It’s an alternative if you want less in each box or prefer crushed aniseed sprinkles. | PLUS |
These two 330 g variants are suited to sharing when the colour of the sprinkles matters. Check the number of packs when ordering: a 330 g pack doesn’t mean you’ll receive individually portioned servings.

For a shared treat when blue and white sprinkles suit the occasion.
The product listing describes one 330 g pack, not a set of individually portioned servings. It also lists wheat as an allergen; check the label on the pack you’ve bought before serving.

For a shared occasion when pink sprinkles are the colour you’re looking for.
The pack contains 330 g. Check the number of packs when ordering and read the current label before serving; the product listing names wheat as an allergen.
No, the 330 g weight alone doesn’t tell you how many packs are included. The blue and white Joybuy variant is listed as a single pack; for other offers, check separately whether you’re buying one box or a bundle. Buying several individual boxes doesn’t make them a multipack of individual portions.
Store an opened pack in a dry place and seal it tightly, as the listings for the De Ruijter variants mentioned recommend. You can put out a small amount separately and reseal the rest of the pack.
Keep the label from the pack you’ve bought available and check it before serving. The listings for the pink and blue and white variants mentioned list wheat, but the current label is the one to rely on for that pack. According to the Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority, allergens must be listed on the label of prepacked foods.
