Who is this choice relevant to?

Stocking up for shared use

You want to buy crushed aniseed sprinkles for several breakfasts, lunches or occasions when you’ll be sharing, and are weighing up whether one pack will be enough.

For lunch and snacks

You use crushed aniseed sprinkles as a sweet topping or spread and want an amount that suits regular, but not necessarily daily, use.

Households that check the label

Ingredients, allergens, nutritional information, storage advice and the best-before date can all influence whether you buy a pack and how many you keep at home.

What should you look for when buying?

Decide how many occasions you want to cover, then consider how you’ll use the loose sprinkles and check the label before buying.

Common mistakes

  • Calling several individual packs a multipack

    Buying several individual 270 g packs doesn’t make them a pre-packed multipack. Buying a larger quantity also doesn’t automatically mean you’ll save on each pack.

    Check the packaging format and any promotional terms before buying more than one pack.

  • Confusing other varieties of muisjes with crushed aniseed sprinkles

    Alongside the crushed variety, Albert Heijn and Jumbo also list other varieties of muisjes. A different weight or colour doesn’t make them the same type of product.

    If you’re looking specifically for the crushed variety, check that the product name explicitly says ‘Gestampte Muisjes’.

  • Looking only at pack size

    De Ruijter’s product information lists wheat and cereals containing gluten, as well as 79 g of sugar per 100 g. This information may matter more to your choice than the number of packs.

    Check the current ingredients, allergens, nutritional information, best-before date and storage instructions on the pack, especially if someone sharing it with you needs to check the ingredients.

  • The product information lists 45 servings of 6 g, as stated on the label.

Frequently asked questions

Are several packs of crushed aniseed sprinkles the same as a multipack?

No. Several individual packs are not the same as one pre-packed multipack. Albert Heijn and Jumbo list De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes as a standard 270 g pack. Check the current packaging if a multipack is essential for you.

How can I tell if one 270 g pack will be enough?

Compare the amount you use each time with the number of occasions you have planned. Albert Heijn lists 45 servings of 6 g per pack according to the label, but your actual portions may differ. Factor in the best-before date and the dry storage space you have available, too.

Can I take crushed aniseed sprinkles with me for lunch?

Yes, as long as you portion out the loose sprinkles yourself in a suitable way for taking with you. They aren’t individually packed in lunch-sized portions. Check the current label for ingredients and nutritional information if these are important to your choice.

Which allergens are listed for De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes?

Albert Heijn and Jumbo’s product information lists wheat and cereals containing gluten. Before use, check the allergen information on the packaging of the product you actually buy.

What should I consider if I want to store several packs?

Make sure you can store the packs somewhere dry and expect to use them before the best-before date. Albert Heijn and Jumbo advise storing the product in a dry place; follow the date and storage instructions on the packaging of the product you buy.
