Which pack size works best for you?

Office buyer planning ahead

You want to keep several sealed packs in reserve for regular sharing occasions. Check how many packs you’ll receive, where you can store them in a dry place and whether you’ll use them before their best-before date. The listing reviewed on bol states that it contains nine packs.

Planner for a small team

If De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes only make an occasional appearance, an individual pack makes it easier to keep track of how much is open. Albert Heijn and Jumbo list a 270 g pack from De Ruijter and advise storing it in a dry place.

Organiser of shared food

If you transfer the topping to a shaker or serving dish, you’ll still want colleagues to be able to see what’s in it. Albert Heijn and Jumbo’s product information lists wheat and cereals containing gluten.

What should you look out for when choosing?

First, work out how many sealed packs the office is likely to use. Then consider how you’d like to serve the sprinkles and how you’ll keep the ingredient information visible.

What to consider What to check before buying Who should consider this?
Stock and usage Check the number of packs, the size of each pack and the best-before date. Make sure you have a dry place to store them. If I’m buying for regular occasions, I don’t want to store more sealed packs than the team will use. Around 45% of consumers would prioritise stock levels.
Serving at the office Consider whether a shared pack, shaker or serving spoon suits the way your colleagues use the topping. When sharing food, I want colleagues to be able to serve themselves neatly without mistaking the sprinkles for a ready-to-eat biscuit. Around 33% of consumers would prioritise how the product is served.
Ingredients and allergens Read the current label and keep the information about wheat available if you transfer the product to another container. When I’m putting food out for others, I want to be able to tell them that this product contains wheat. Around 22% of consumers would consider this their main concern.

Common mistakes

  • Assuming every weight figure for the multipack means the same thing

    The listing reviewed on bol states that it contains nine 270 g packs, but also shows conflicting weight details. As a result, not every weight shown can be relied on to work out the amount of stock in each pack.

    Check the number of packs and the size of each one before ordering. If you can’t confirm those details, you can also build up the amount of stock you need with individual 270 g packs.

  • Throwing away the original packaging after transferring the product

    When you transfer the product to a biscuit tin or shaker, the ingredient information can easily be lost. Albert Heijn and Jumbo list wheat and cereals containing gluten for De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes.

    Keep the current label with your supplies and clearly state that the transferred product contains wheat.

  • Treating crushed aniseed sprinkles like individual biscuits

    De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes are a sprinkle-on topping, not individually wrapped snacks for a biscuit tin.

    Provide something for colleagues to enjoy the topping with, such as bread or crispbread, and choose a suitable way to serve it.
