Which option is right for you?

Host with a mixed group of guests

Wants to share chocolate spritz biscuits and is mindful of allergens that may be relevant to guests. Keeping the packaging is important, so you can refer to the information when serving them.

Dark chocolate fan

Specifically wants spritz biscuits with dark chocolate rather than a milk chocolate coating. The type of chocolate alone says nothing about whether they’re suitable for someone with a milk allergy.

Party shopper keeping an eye on quantities

Compares the pack weight and stated number of portions with the number of guests, to make sure there’s enough for the festive table.

What should you look for when choosing?

First decide which chocolate flavour and allergens matter to your group. Then compare the pack sizes to find the right amount to serve.

What to consider What to check when buying Who it matters to
Allergens Read the ingredients, allergen information and any precautionary ‘may contain’ warnings on the current packaging. Keep this information to hand when serving. If I’m sharing spritz biscuits with guests, I want to be able to check which allergens may be relevant to them. This is the top priority for around 40% of consumers.
Chocolate flavour Check whether they’re made with milk chocolate, dark chocolate or extra chocolate pieces. Confirm availability before relying on a particular variety. For the Christmas table, I’m specifically looking for milk or dark chocolate, not just any biscuit with a chocolate coating. This flavour choice comes first for around 30% of consumers.
Quantity Compare pack weight and stated portions: Albert Heijn lists Verkade Nobo Sprits Milk Chocolate at 150 g, while Jumbo lists its dark chocolate spritz biscuits at 200 g and 15 portions. I want to serve enough spritz biscuits for my group without relying solely on the front of the pack. The quantity needed matters most to around 30% of consumers.

Common pitfalls

  • Assuming ‘dark chocolate’ means ‘dairy-free’

    The dark chocolate spritz biscuits described by Jumbo and PLUS also list milk or milk fat. So the type of chocolate is no substitute for checking the allergen information.

    Check the ingredients and allergen information on the exact pack you buy.

  • Counting on a double chocolate version without checking stock

    Jumbo no longer listed Verkade Specials Nobo Sprits Double Chocolate in its online range. A variety you’ve seen before may therefore not be a reliable choice for your festive shopping.

    Check availability with the shop where you plan to buy it before adding this flavour to your plans.

  • Throwing away the packaging before serving

    When biscuits are served on a shared platter, guests can no longer check the ingredients and allergens on the original packaging if it has already been thrown away.

    Keep the packaging beside the spritz biscuits while you’re serving them.

Frequently asked questions

Are dark chocolate spritz biscuits suitable for someone who can’t have milk?

Don’t assume they are: the dark chocolate varieties described by Jumbo and PLUS also list milk or milk fat. Read the ingredients and allergen information on the pack you buy.

How can I keep allergen information available when serving biscuits on a shared platter?

Keep the original packaging beside the spritz biscuits so guests can check the ingredients and allergens. The Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority says that allergen information for prepacked products must appear on the label.

How should I store chocolate spritz biscuits until Christmas?

Follow the storage instructions on the packaging of the spritz biscuits you’ve chosen, and reseal an opened pack. That way, you can still refer to the product information later when you serve the biscuits.
