What should you look for when choosing?
For your neighbourhood get-together, first decide whether you want to hand out sealed boxes, keep using one larger pack or give out individual portions. Then compare the flavour and ingredients of the variety you’ve chosen.

Who it matters to |
| Splitting the stock after the get-together |
Check how many separate boxes are in the pack and how many grams each box contains. |
I want to keep or give away a sealed box afterwards, rather than split an opened pack. For around 40% of consumers, being able to split the stock is the main priority. |
| Stock for later |
Compare the net weight and consider whether you’ll use one opened, larger box regularly. |
If the chocolate sprinkles are also for future lunchboxes, I want enough at home without having to open extra boxes. For around 30% of consumers, this need to keep stock is the biggest consideration. |
| Flavour and size |
Check whether you’re buying a single flavour or a mix, and what size it comes in. |
I want to serve a flavour that suits the group, without buying more of one variety than I need. This is the top priority for around 20% of consumers. |
| Ingredients and portions |
Read the allergens on the current label and compare the nutritional information per 100 g or per portion. |
If guests need to avoid certain ingredients, or I want to work out portions for lunchboxes, I need to know what’s in the variety I’ve chosen. For around 10% of consumers, this is the main concern. |

Frequently asked questions
Is a 2-pack the same as an individually portioned pack?
No. The Venz dark chocolate 2-pack described by Albert Heijn contains two separate 400 g boxes. If you want to hand out portions to each person, look for a pack that’s specifically portioned, such as the De Ruijter pack with 120 portions of 20 g.
When should I choose one large box for a get-together and lunchboxes?
A large single pack is a good choice if you want to keep using the same chocolate sprinkles regularly after the get-together. Jumbo and ALDI show 600 g examples; if you want to give someone an unopened pack to take home, one large box doesn’t offer the same flexibility as two separate boxes.
Can I serve the same flavour of chocolate sprinkles to all my guests?
First check the allergens for the exact variety, especially if guests need to avoid certain ingredients. Jumbo lists milk and soya for Venz dark chocolate, and wheat and cereals containing gluten for De Ruijter dark and vanilla mix too. Check the label on the pack you’re serving.
How should I store an opened box of chocolate sprinkles?
Follow the storage instructions on the specific pack. For De Ruijter Dark Chocolate Sprinkles 390 g, Joybuy says to reseal the pack securely after opening and store it in a cool, dry place.
How do I compare chocolate sprinkles for lunchbox portions?
Compare the nutritional information for your chosen variety per 100 g and per portion, and consider how much you actually use. The Netherlands Nutrition Centre lists a 15 g portion of chocolate sprinkles as containing 67 kcal and 9.4 g of sugars; check the product’s own label for its specific values.
