If you’re sharing or planning several late-night snacks, a 330 g box of whole aniseed sprinkles is one option. If you’d prefer a smaller amount, you can compare it with 270 g of crushed aniseed sprinkles. Both sizes come in a single box, not in individually portioned packs. If you’re packing a lunchbox, check exactly what’s in the pack. If you need to avoid wheat or gluten, read the label on the specific product.
If several people will be eating from the same box, or you want to keep your aniseed sprinkles for more than one evening, consider a 330 g pack. Albert Heijn, Jumbo and PLUS list De Ruijter varieties in this size. It’s still a single box, so you can take out as much as you need.
A 270 g or 330 g box of aniseed sprinkles doesn’t contain individual portions. Also check the product type: De Ruijter Kleintjes, listed by Albert Heijn as containing eight portions, is chocolate sprinkles and flakes, not aniseed sprinkles.
Check the ingredients and allergen information on the exact pack before choosing. The product information for the whole and crushed De Ruijter aniseed sprinkles reviewed here lists wheat and cereals containing gluten.
First decide whether you want a box to share, a smaller amount to keep in the cupboard or portions to take with you. Then compare the product type and the label on the variety you want to buy.

|---|---|---|

For around 25% of consumers, choosing the right product is their main concern. |
A 270 g or 330 g box of aniseed sprinkles isn’t the same as a pack of individual portions. What’s more, a product sold in portions may contain a different type of topping, such as chocolate sprinkles or flakes.
Before choosing something for a lunchbox, check the product type, the pack contents and the number of individually wrapped portions.
