Choose a large pack of chocolate sprinkles if lots of guests want the same flavour and you’ll use the rest later. A multipack of individual packs is handy for stocking up, but doesn’t provide individual portions; for a choice of flavours at the table or lunchboxes, smaller portion packs are a better fit. Buy the rusks separately, and check the labels on both products if anyone has an allergy.
If several guests want the same chocolate sprinkles, one larger pack may be enough. For example, Jumbo sells chocolate sprinkles in 600 g packs. Think ahead about whether you’ll use the leftovers after your get-together.
Smaller packs let you put out different varieties without opening several large packs. According to Albert Heijn, De Ruijter Kleintjes contains eight portions of assorted chocolate sprinkles and chocolate flakes.
Pre-portioned amounts are handy if you want to set something aside for each guest or fill a lunchbox later. Check the contents and allergens for each variety you choose; a multipack of standard packs isn’t the same as a box of individual portions.
First decide whether you mainly want to share one flavour, offer a choice of flavours or provide individual portions. Then choose your rusks and check the ingredients of both products.
| What to consider | What to check when buying | Who it matters to |
|---|---|---|
| Having enough in stock | Check the net weight and consider whether you’ll use the same flavour again after your get-together. | If lots of guests choose the same chocolate sprinkles, I want to have enough without being left with too much. Around 31% of consumers put having enough in stock first. |
| Flavours and portions | Check how many individual portions are included and which varieties are in the pack. | I want to give guests a choice or be able to pack something separately in a lunchbox. For around 31% of consumers, this variety and portioning is their main concern. |
| Ingredients and allergens | Read the current labels on both the chocolate sprinkles and the rusks, especially if anyone needs to avoid certain ingredients. | If a guest has an allergy, I want to know what’s in both products first. Around 23% of consumers put these checks first. |
| Type of rusks | Choose the type you want and check how many pieces are in the pack. | For me, choosing between, for example, plain and wholemeal rusks determines what I put on the table; the topping comes next. Around 15% of consumers prioritise this basic choice. |
According to Albert Heijn, the De Ruijter Specials 3-pack contains three separate 200 g products. It’s stock for several occasions, not a set of individual portions for guests.
Before buying, check how many packs there are, the weight of each pack and whether the product is supplied as separate items.
