Choose based on the number of bags and the weight per bag, not just the word ‘multipack’: 20 × 45 g means small individual bags, while 8 × 275 g consists of larger sharing bags. Work out how many snack breaks you’re planning, check the ingredients for your group and check the festival’s rules separately; a 500 g value bag isn’t a multipack.
Want to know in advance how many bags you’ll have and how many grams are in each one? Foods & Goods and Makro list Duyvis Provencale in 20 bags of 45 g, 900 g in total. Check the ingredients before handing them out to others.
If you don’t want to open the whole supply at once, a box of eight 275 g bags offers a different way to snack from small individual bags. Amazon.nl lists this pack as Duyvis Cocktail.
Want to decide how much everyone gets, and don’t need individual portions? Jumbo lists a 500 g value pack of Cocktail nuts. Bear in mind that you’ll need to portion them yourself, and follow the storage instructions on the pack.
Ideal if: you want to hand out the bags in advance or pop them into lunchboxes.
Bear in mind: you get a set number of bags, all the same size; the pack listed contains twenty.
Ideal if: you want to open a separate bag for each group snack break.
Bear in mind: eight 275 g bags are sharing packs, not small portions for individual lunchboxes.
Ideal if: you want to make your own portions for sharing.
Bear in mind: a 500 g bag doesn’t contain pre-portioned individual servings.
When buying snacks for a festival, check how they’re packed first, then consider how many snack breaks you’re planning and whether the ingredients suit your group.
| What to consider | What to check | Who is this more important for? |
|---|---|---|
| Number of bags and pack size | Check how many inner bags there are and the weight of each one; distinguish between 20 × 45 g and 8 × 275 g. | If I want to hand out bags in advance or put them in lunchboxes, I want to know exactly how many portions I’ll have. Around 34% of consumers say this is their top buying priority. |
| Snacks for several occasions | Count the snack breaks you’re planning and check how many separate bags are in the pack. | For a group eating together at different times, it’s useful to know how many bags you can open separately. Around 25% of consumers prioritise having enough for several occasions. |
| Portioning the snacks yourself | Check the total pack size and consider whether you’ll need containers to prepare portions in advance. | If I want to decide the portion size myself, I want to be able to divide up the contents without needing small inner bags. Around 25% of consumers put this flexibility first. |
| Suitable for your group | Read the ingredients and warnings on the pack for the exact flavour. | If someone in my group needs to avoid allergens, I want to check the pack before handing out the snack. Around 16% of consumers make suitability for their group their top priority. |
Multi-bag packs can vary widely in size: twenty 45 g bags aren’t the same as eight 275 g bags.
Check both the number of bags and the weight per bag before deciding how much you need.
Jumbo’s 500 g Cocktail pack is one value bag; the product listing doesn’t mention individual snack bags.
Choose this format if you want to portion the snacks yourself rather than rely on pre-packed servings.
The varieties listed contain other allergens too: peanuts and wheat are listed in the ingredients for Duyvis Provencale 20 × 45 g; the published ingredients for Duyvis Cocktail 8 × 275 g also list milk.
Check the ingredients and warnings on the current pack for the exact flavour, especially if you’re shopping for others.
The listed pack formats range from small bags to larger sharing bags. Foods & Goods and Makro list Provencale 20 × 45 g; Amazon.nl lists Cocktail 8 × 275 g.
Albert Heijn lists AH Cocktail nuts, among other products, as well as individual Duyvis product listings.
Jumbo lists Cocktail nuts in a 500 g value pack.

No, the number of packs alone doesn’t tell you how many grams are in each one. For lunchbox planning, choose a format where you know both the number of bags and the weight per bag, such as the listed 20 × 45 g pack.
Follow the storage instructions on the pack you have. Jumbo advises storing its product in a cool, dry, dark place; Makro recommends keeping opened Duyvis Provencale in a light-proof, airtight container. These product instructions don’t offer a general storage guarantee for a warm festival tent.
No, ingredients vary by variety. The published ingredients for Duyvis Provencale 20 × 45 g also list wheat, while those for Duyvis Cocktail 8 × 275 g also list milk. For the exact flavour, check both the ingredients and warnings on the current pack.
No. The product page for Duyvis Cocktail 8 × 275 g warns that young children can choke on peanuts and nuts. A small bag on its own doesn’t mean that the contents are suitable for young children.
The NVWA describes the information requirements for businesses offering food to consumers; this isn’t the same as a permit requirement for a visitor buying a snack for themselves. The NVWA also states that new rules for warnings about possible cross-contamination have applied since 1 January 2026.
