An aniseed fan doing a regular food shop
You fancy crushed aniseed sprinkles as an alternative to other sweet sandwich toppings, and want to add them to your regular online shop rather than placing a separate delivery order.
Who is this relevant for?
Someone shopping for one who wants to avoid waste
You use small amounts on bread, crispbread or yoghurt, and want to work out whether a 270 g pack suits how quickly you’ll use it. Albert Heijn lists 45 servings of 6 g per pack.
A shopper checking for wheat and gluten
You check the current ingredients and allergens before ordering, then read the label when your order arrives. Albert Heijn and Jumbo list wheat and cereals containing gluten for this variety.
What should you look for when choosing?
| What to consider | What to check | Who it matters to |
|---|---|---|
| Flavour and form | Check that the product name says Crushed Aniseed Sprinkles. Coloured whole aniseed sprinkles are a different variety. | I want fine aniseed sprinkles for bread or yoghurt, not whole sprinkles for a festive presentation. This flavour and form is the top priority for around 25% of consumers. |
| Pack size | Compare 270 g with how quickly you’ll use it, and check the date on the packaging. | If I’m the only one using the pack, I want to know whether I’ll finish it before the date gets close. For around 31% of consumers, pack size is the main concern. |
| Ingredients and allergens | Read the current ingredients and allergen information; Albert Heijn and Jumbo list wheat and cereals containing gluten for this variety. | I want to know before ordering whether the product contains wheat and how much sugar it contains. Ingredients and allergens matter most to around 31% of consumers. |
| Delivery terms | Once you’ve entered your postcode, check the minimum order value and available delivery slots. | If I’ve only added one pack to my basket, I want to know whether I can have it delivered to my home. Delivery terms are the main concern for around 13% of consumers. |
Common mistakes
-
Thinking of a 270 g pack as a single snack portion
Albert Heijn lists 45 servings of 6 g per pack of De Ruijter Crushed Aniseed Sprinkles. So, for one person, it’s a pack to use over several occasions.
Choose the number of packs based on how often you use aniseed sprinkles, store them in a dry place and check the date on the packaging.
-
Ordering a single pack without checking the delivery terms
Albert Heijn and Jumbo have a minimum order value for home delivery. A single pack of crushed aniseed sprinkles won’t meet it.
Add it to a planned food shop, and check the terms for your postcode and delivery slot before completing your order.
-
Assuming what’s in it based on the product category
Albert Heijn and Jumbo’s product information lists wheat starch and names wheat and cereals containing gluten as allergens. The nutritional information lists 79 g of sugars per 100 g.
Read the current ingredients, allergen and nutritional information before buying, then compare it with the label on the pack when it arrives.
A relevant brand to consider
De Ruijter
Albert Heijn and Jumbo list De Ruijter Crushed Aniseed Sprinkles in a 270 g pack. Crushed aniseed sprinkles are different from coloured whole aniseed sprinkles.
- Albert Heijn and Jumbo’s product pages list the ingredients and allergens for this variety.
- If you’re specifically looking for the crushed variety, check the product name and ingredients again when considering other types of aniseed sprinkles.
