Who is this relevant for?

Evening snackers who want to measure their portions

You want a little aniseed flavour without eating straight from the pack. Albert Heijn lists a 6 g serving of De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes, with 45 servings in a 270 g pack.

Anyone looking for a quick, sweet topping

You already have bread, crispbread or yoghurt in mind and want an aniseed-flavoured topping to go with it. Albert Heijn and Jumbo’s product descriptions suggest these uses; it’s a topping, not a snack in an individual pack.

Shoppers checking ingredients and allergens

You want to know before buying whether the aniseed flavour and ingredients are suitable for you. Albert Heijn and Jumbo’s product information lists ingredients including aniseed and wheat starch, and names wheat and cereals containing gluten as allergens.

What should you look for when choosing?

First decide whether you want a small amount of aniseed topping or would prefer a different snack. Then compare the net weight, serving information and ingredients on the pack you’re buying.

What to consider What to check Who it matters to
Serving size Check the net weight and serving size. Albert Heijn lists a 270 g pack and a 6 g serving for De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes. I want a small amount of topping late in the evening and to be able to measure it out beforehand. Portion control comes first for around 42% of consumers.
Flavour and use Check whether you’re looking for an aniseed topping for things like bread, crispbread or yoghurt, as suggested in Albert Heijn and Jumbo’s product descriptions. If I already have something to sprinkle the aniseed sprinkles over, I mainly want to add the flavour I’m after quickly. Around 33% of consumers prioritise this convenience and flavour.
Ingredients and allergens Read the current ingredients list and allergen information; Albert Heijn and Jumbo’s product information lists wheat and cereals containing gluten for this variety. If I need to avoid wheat or gluten, I want to know what’s in the pack before buying. For around 25% of consumers, this check matters more than pack size and flavour.

Common mistakes

  • Assuming a search for ‘mini’ means there’s a mini pack

    Albert Heijn and Jumbo list De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes in a 270 g pack. The 6 g serving is an amount you measure out yourself, not a separately packaged single serving.

    Before buying, check the net weight and number of servings if a small pack size is essential for you.

  • Eating straight from the pack

    It’s then harder to keep track of your portion. Jumbo lists 4.7 g of sugars per 6 g serving of this variety.

    Measure out the amount for your late-night snack first, then use the sprinkles as a topping on the base you’ve chosen.

  • Checking allergens only after buying

    Albert Heijn and Jumbo’s product information lists wheat and cereals containing gluten. A smaller serving doesn’t change the ingredients in this variety.

    Check the allergen information on the current pack when you buy it, even if you’ve bought the product before.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a mini pack of crushed aniseed sprinkles for a single late-night snack?

Albert Heijn and Jumbo list De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes in a 270 g pack, not as a separate mini format. This doesn’t tell you what other shops offer; check the net weight there if you’re looking for a small pack.

How much is a serving of De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes?

Albert Heijn lists a 6 g serving for the 270 g pack. Jumbo gives the nutritional values for a 6 g serving of this variety as 24 kcal and 4.7 g of sugars; don’t assume these figures apply to another product.

Should I check the allergens again next time I buy it?

Yes, check the current pack. Albert Heijn and Jumbo’s product information lists wheat and cereals containing gluten for this variety, and ingredients and allergen information can change.

Are crushed aniseed sprinkles meant to be eaten as a snack on their own?

Albert Heijn and Jumbo’s product descriptions suggest using De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes as a topping for things like bread, crispbread and yoghurt. If you’re not looking for a sweet aniseed topping, choose a snack that’s better suited to what you want to eat.

How should I store the pack after a late-night snack?

Store De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes in a dry place and follow the storage and use-by information on the pack. Seal the pack again after use.
