Choose chocolate sprinkles if you want to prepare a snack before gaming, for example with bread, yoghurt or porridge. The sprinkles featured here are sold in boxes, not as individual bars. If you want to grab a convenient snack without any preparation, a standard chocolate bar is a better fit, but it isn’t a sprinkles product.
If you want to grab something while playing without needing a plate, bowl or any preparation, a standard chocolate bar is a better fit. The sprinkles shown by Jumbo and Joybuy come in boxes and aren’t individual bars.
If you want to add sprinkles to bread, yoghurt or porridge, prepare your snack before you start playing. Joybuy suggests these uses for De Ruijter sprinkles.
Check the information for the exact variant if you need to avoid certain ingredients. PLUS product information lists ingredients such as wheat, soya or milk for various sprinkles, either as ingredients or in a warning.
Choose this if: you want to prepare bread, yoghurt, porridge or another snack before gaming, then add sprinkles to it.
Bear in mind: sprinkles come in a box, so you’ll need something to put them on and will have to portion them yourself.
Choose this if: you want to eat a snack by hand without preparing anything first.
Bear in mind: a bar is a different product from sprinkles and doesn’t replace their use as a topping.
| What to consider | What to check | Who it matters to |
|---|---|---|
| Ready-to-eat portion | Check whether you’re buying an individual bar or a box of sprinkles that you’ll need to portion yourself. | I want to be able to grab something while playing without having to prepare a bowl or sandwich first. For around 44% of consumers, having a convenient snack format comes first. |
| Flavour and how you’ll use it | First decide what you want to put the sprinkles on, then compare the flavours available. | I prepare my snack in advance and want sprinkles that go well with my bread, yoghurt or porridge. This combination is the main reason for choosing them for around 33% of consumers. |
| Ingredients and allergens | For the exact variant, read the ingredients list, allergen information and any ‘may contain’ warnings. | If I need to avoid certain ingredients, the information on the packaging determines which sprinkles I can consider. For around 23% of consumers, this check is the most important factor. |
The sprinkles shown by Jumbo and Joybuy come in boxes. They won’t give you the same snack format if you want something to eat by hand while gaming.
Make ‘ready to eat by hand, with no preparation’ your first priority. If that’s essential, look for chocolate bars rather than sprinkles.
According to PLUS product information, the ingredients and warnings for different sprinkles vary, including warnings about milk, soya and wheat. Another variant of the same type of product may therefore need a different check.
Before buying and using a product, check the current ingredients and allergen information on the exact packaging.
PLUS labels its Chocoladevlokken puur Fairtrade as vegan, but also states that the product may contain milk and lactose. So the label doesn’t answer every allergen question.
If you need to avoid an ingredient, always check the separate warnings on the packaging too.

Not if you mean an individual bar. The sprinkles shown by Jumbo and Joybuy are sold in boxes as a topping. They’re better for a snack you prepare in advance; if a convenient, hand-held format is your priority, choose a standard chocolate bar.
Add the sprinkles to bread, yoghurt or porridge before you start playing, so you don’t need to use the box next to your equipment. Follow the storage instructions on the product once the pack has been opened.
Yes, check the information for the exact variant. PLUS lists different ingredients and allergen warnings for the products described, including warnings about milk, soya and wheat. A brand name, dark flavour or vegan label doesn’t replace this check.
