Choose individual bags if you want to take or hand out snacks without weighing them: Duyvis Provençale is listed as 20 bags of 45 grams each. If you’d rather decide the amount yourself, a larger bag that you portion out in advance is another option. Check the inner packaging, ingredients and storage advice for each product. The weight on a bag isn’t nutritional advice, and cocktail nuts aren’t automatically suitable for every lunchbox.
Would you like to pop an individual bag into your bag or lunchbox for the morning break, without weighing it first? The Duyvis pack of 20 bags, each weighing 45 grams, is one option; Foods & Goods lists this pack.
If you’re buying for several people, the number of individual bags can help you plan how to hand them out. A box of twenty bags is different to one large bag that everyone shares.
If you want to decide how much to take with you, you can portion out a larger bag in advance. Follow the storage advice on the packaging. For a child’s lunchbox, also check the relevant nutritional and safety advice from the Netherlands Nutrition Centre.
First, decide whether you need individual sealed bags or would rather portion the snacks yourself. Then check the weight per pack and the information on the label.
| What to consider | What to look for | Who should pay extra attention? |
|---|---|---|
| Individual bags | Check the number of individual bags and the weight of each one; a multipack description alone doesn’t tell you how the contents are divided. | If I want to take a sealed bag with me without weighing it, I check the inner packaging. Around 36% of consumers put taking snacks with them without preparation first. |
| Handing them out | Compare the number of bags with the number of people receiving them. If you buy one large bag, you’ll need to portion it out yourself. | If I’m buying for a group, I want to know how many individual packs I can hand out. Around 29% of consumers prioritise convenience when sharing snacks. |
| Quantity and nutritional information | Read the weight, ingredients and nutritional values for the exact variant. The weight of a pack isn’t nutritional advice; age-related and safety guidance also applies for children. | If I want to decide how much to take with me, I check the contents and product information for the variant I’ve chosen. Around 21% of consumers prioritise this consideration. |
| Allergens | Read the current label for the exact flavour and pack, and check the allergen information before handing anything out. | If I’m taking snacks for other people, I want to know whether the ingredients are suitable for their allergies. Around 14% of consumers prioritise having suitable allergen information. |
The name of a pack doesn’t tell you how many individual bags it contains or how many grams are in each one.
Check the number of inner packs and the weight per bag before choosing a size.
The 45 grams in the Duyvis pack describes the contents of each bag, not an amount recommended for everyone.
Choose the amount thoughtfully. Additional nutritional and safety advice applies to children’s lunchboxes; the Netherlands Nutrition Centre warns, among other things, about the risk of choking on whole nuts and peanuts.
A 500-gram bag is one shared supply, not a multipack of individual bags.
If you’re portioning it out yourself, allow time to prepare it and use a suitable container of your own.
Jumbo advises storing its Cocktail Nuts in a cool, dry, dark place. Packaging in a protective atmosphere doesn’t, by itself, tell you how long nuts you’ve repacked yourself will retain their quality.
Follow the storage advice on the packaging, and don’t assume there’s a fixed period for crispness or shelf life after opening.
The cocktail nuts mentioned contain peanuts. The Netherlands Nutrition Centre warns that even a small amount can cause a reaction in someone with a food allergy; other possible allergens vary by product.
Before handing them out, check the current label for the exact pack and take the recipients’ allergies into account.

No. 45 grams is the stated pack weight of a Duyvis bag, not nutritional advice. General dietary advice about unsalted nuts doesn’t automatically apply as a recommendation for coated cocktail nuts.
No. A lunchbox-sized pack isn’t a safety guarantee. For children aged 4 to 12, the Netherlands Nutrition Centre recommends snacks from the Wheel of Five and warns about the risk of choking on whole nuts and peanuts. Bear the age-related and safety advice in mind.
Read the current label for the exact flavour and pack, and check the ingredients and allergen information for the people receiving them.
