For a small Christmas buffet with a range of flavours, individual portions of chocolate sprinkles served alongside crispbread are a practical choice: Albert Heijn describes De Ruijter Kleintjes as eight portions, while a large pack lets you portion them out yourself. Ready-made crispbread takes less preparation, if you can find it; Jumbo says the version it lists is no longer in its online range. If any guests have allergies, check the labels of the products you choose.
Want to offer different types of chocolate sprinkles on a small festive table without serving them from large packs? According to Albert Heijn, De Ruijter Kleintjes contains eight individual portions. You’ll need to provide the crispbread separately.
If you want to sprinkle chocolate sprinkles over the crispbread yourself, a large pack suits this approach. Lidl and ALDI describe 600 g packs; these are not individual topping portions.
If any guests have allergies, don’t rely on the brand name or a photo alone. For De Ruijter Kleintjes, Jumbo lists milk, soya and wheat, among other ingredients. Check the crispbread label too, and check each product you choose separately.
First choose between individual topping portions, a large pack you can portion out yourself, and ready-made crispbread. Then consider how much preparation and label-checking your choice involves.
| What to consider | What to check before buying | Who it matters to |
|---|---|---|
| Portions and flavours | Count the individual portions and check the mix of flavours. Albert Heijn lists eight portions for De Ruijter Kleintjes. | I want to offer different toppings on a small festive table without portioning them out in advance myself. Around 33% of consumers prioritise portion size and variety. |
| Preparation | Check whether you still need to put the crispbread and chocolate sprinkles together, and whether a ready-made version is available. | I have little time to top the crispbread just before serving. For around 27% of consumers, minimal preparation is the main priority. |
| Ingredients and allergens | Read the current labels for the crispbread and topping, including allergen information and any warnings. | If guests need to avoid certain ingredients, I want to be able to check what each product I choose contains. Checking labels is the top priority for around 20% of consumers. |
| Quantity for the group | Work out how much crispbread you want to serve, then compare this with the amount of topping in each pack. | For a larger group, I want to have enough chocolate sprinkles to serve, and I don’t mind portioning them out myself. Around 20% of consumers also prioritise having the right quantity. |
Albert Heijn and Jumbo no longer list Venz Mini’s in their online ranges. Jumbo says the same about its ready-made Beschuit met Hagelslag Melk.
Check current availability before planning your festive table around one of these products. Serving plain crispbread with your choice of chocolate sprinkles is a different way to put it together.
A selection of different types of chocolate sprinkles and flakes doesn’t mean every variety has the same ingredients. For De Ruijter Kleintjes, Jumbo lists milk, soya and wheat, among other ingredients.
Read the current label on the box and the information for each variety. Keep an alternative for a guest with an allergy clearly separate.
According to the Voedingscentrum, bakers aren’t required to use bakers’ salt. So you can’t assume that a particular crispbread contains iodine from bakers’ salt just because of its product category.
Check the ingredients, or ask the manufacturer about the specific crispbread if this is important to your choice.
A large bag to sprinkle from and a box of individual portions serve different purposes at a buffet.
Decide whether you mainly want toppings portioned out in advance, a range of flavours or enough for a larger group. Then compare the number of portions and the quantity you need.
Kleintjes is an option for a festive table where you want to offer a choice of toppings in individual portions.
Mini’s is an example of chocolate sprinkles and flakes in small packs, alongside Venz packs that you can portion out yourself.
Jumbo lists both Strooi Mini’s and a ready-made crispbread with chocolate sprinkles.
The listed packs of chocolate sprinkles are suited to portioning out yourself over separate crispbread, rather than serving as pre-portioned mini sachets.
The chocolate sprinkles mix comes in a large pack for a buffet where guests or the host can portion it out themselves.
These Venz products are loose toppings in 400 g packs. Pair them with separate crispbread, and check the pack format if you’re specifically looking for individual mini sachets for your Christmas party.

A topping to portion out yourself over separate crispbread if you’re looking for milk chocolate sprinkles.
The pack contains 400 g. Check whether it includes individual sachets if you need pre-portioned servings, and read the current label for guests with allergies.
No. With individual portions of chocolate sprinkles, you still need to provide and top the crispbread separately. One ready-made version we found, Jumbo Beschuit met Hagelslag Melk, is no longer in Jumbo’s online range.
Read the current labels for both the crispbread and each topping you choose. For De Ruijter Kleintjes, Jumbo lists milk, cereals containing gluten, soya and wheat, among other ingredients; don’t assume other products or flavours have the same ingredients.
Follow the storage advice and use-by date on the pack you buy. The product information says to store it in a cool, dry place and to check the base of the pack for the best-before date.
No, you can’t assume this is true of every type of crispbread. According to the Voedingscentrum, bakers aren’t required to use bakers’ salt; check the ingredients or ask the manufacturer about the specific product.
