If you’re looking for an individually wrapped bar of aniseed sprinkles for a single serving, the boxes in Jumbo’s online category won’t meet that need: the four products listed weigh 270 g or 330 g. Choose one of these boxes only if you want to use the sprinkles as a topping or decoration. If so, check the pack size, colour, ingredients and allergen information for the specific variant.
If you need something for a single serving, first check whether the product is actually an individual portion. The four aniseed sprinkle products in Jumbo’s online category come in boxes weighing 270 g or 330 g.
If you’re using them as a topping or decoration, the pack size may help you decide. Jumbo lists crushed aniseed sprinkles in a 270 g pack; the other variants listed come in 330 g packs.
If you want them to suit the occasion, you can choose pink and white, blue and white, or celebration sprinkles. For your chosen variant, also check the pack size and allergen information.
When ordering online, first decide whether you need an individual portion or want to use the sprinkles as a topping. Then compare the ingredients and, if it matters for your occasion, the colour.
| What to consider | What to check before buying | Who this matters to |
|---|---|---|
| Individual portion | Check whether the product description specifically mentions an individually wrapped bar or portion; a 270 g or 330 g box is not the same thing. | If I want to order something for one serving, I don’t want to mistake a box of sprinkles for an individual bar. For around 50% of consumers, an individual portion comes first. |
| Ingredients and use | Read the ingredients and allergen information for your chosen variant, and consider whether a topping or decoration suits your occasion. | If I’m using them on rusks or as a topping, I want to know what’s in them, especially if wheat or gluten matters to me. For around 30% of consumers, this is the top priority. |
| Colour and occasion | Compare the pink and white, blue and white, and celebration variants on the current product page, including the stated pack size. | For a birth or celebration, I want the colour to suit the occasion. For around 20% of consumers, this comes first. |
The aniseed sprinkles in Jumbo’s online category come in boxes weighing 270 g or 330 g. That’s a different format from an individually wrapped bar for one serving.
If an individual portion is essential, check that the product description explicitly states this packaging format before placing your order.
The product information for the crushed, pink and white, and celebration sprinkles lists wheat and cereals containing gluten. A colour that suits the occasion tells you nothing about the ingredients in your chosen variant.
Check the latest ingredients and allergen information when ordering, and read the label again when your order arrives.

Before ordering, check the allergen information for the specific variant you’ve chosen, and read the label when it arrives. The Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority states that allergen information for prepacked foods must appear on the label.
Store the sprinkles in a dry place, as stated in the relevant product information. Seal the pack securely after use and follow the storage instructions and best-before date on the packaging.
