Choose De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes if you want a fine aniseed topping for small sweet party bites and would like to portion it yourself. Albert Heijn lists a serving size of 6 g on the label for the 270 g box; this is not a separately packaged mini portion. De Ruijter Feestmuisjes is a different variety to consider if you don’t need the crushed texture. Check the current allergen information on the label when making your choice, too.
Who is this for?
Hosts who want to portion the topping themselves
You want to spread a sweet topping over small bites. Albert Heijn lists a serving size of 6 g and 45 servings per 270 g box of De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes; you’ll need to measure out each serving yourself.
Anyone making bites with a fine aniseed topping
You’re specifically looking for crushed, sugar-coated aniseed to add a sweet finishing touch to small bites, such as cupcakes or yoghurt.

What should you look for when choosing?
For Friday afternoon drinks, the option to portion it yourself, the texture you want and allergen information can all be deciding factors. A serving size on the label doesn’t mean the product comes in individual packs.

Common mistakes
-
Assuming a serving size on the label means an individual mini pack
The 45 servings listed by Albert Heijn for the 270 g box are based on 6 g per serving. They are not 45 individually packaged portions for party bites.
Check whether you’re happy to measure out the topping yourself. If needed, set out small bowls or a measuring spoon.
-
Assuming Gestampte Muisjes is a gluten-free topping
Jumbo’s product information lists wheat starch. This means the topping isn’t suitable if you need a wheat- or gluten-free option for a guest.
Read the current label before serving, and offer that guest an alternative only if its ingredients and allergen information show it’s suitable.
-
Choosing Feestmuisjes as though it were the same crushed topping
De Ruijter Feestmuisjes is a different variety. Albert Heijn lists a 330 g box with 15 g servings, compared with 270 g and 6 g per serving for Gestampte Muisjes.
Choose Gestampte Muisjes if the fine, crushed topping is what matters; consider Feestmuisjes if you don’t need that particular texture.
