What should you look for when choosing?

What to consider What should you check? Who is it important for?
Pack size and format Check the net weight and, if you’re buying a bundle, the number of individual packs. Albert Heijn lists the single pack as 270 g, with 45 servings of 6 g. If I want to share aniseed sprinkles or use them for several lunchboxes, I want to know in advance how many packs I’ll need. For around 40% of consumers, being able to plan their supplies comes first.
Ingredients and nutritional information Check the allergens on the pack and compare nutritional values per 100 g. Jumbo lists wheat and cereals containing gluten for De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes. If I need to keep an eye on wheat or sugar, I want to be able to check the ingredients and nutritional information before buying. Around 30% of consumers prioritise this check.
How you’ll use them and product type Check that the pack says Gestampte Muisjes; pink and white or party aniseed sprinkles are different varieties. If I’m using them on rusks or to decorate cakes, I don’t want to confuse the crushed variety with coloured aniseed sprinkles. Choosing the right product type comes first for around 30% of consumers.

Common mistakes

  • Assuming individual packs are a pre-packed multipack

    Albert Heijn and Jumbo list De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes as a single 270 g pack. Ordering several individual packs doesn’t automatically mean you’re buying a multipack.

    Check that any special offer clearly states the number of packs and the total net weight.

  • Ordering other varieties of aniseed sprinkles as if they were the same product

    Albert Heijn and Jumbo also list other varieties of aniseed sprinkles. Their shape, pack size or ingredients may differ from Gestampte Muisjes.

    Read the full product name and ingredients if you specifically need the crushed variety.

  • Skipping the label because you only use a small amount

    The product information for De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes lists wheat and cereals containing gluten as allergens. Albert Heijn also lists 79 g of sugar per 100 g.

    Check the label on the pack you’re using, and compare the nutritional values of alternatives on the same per-100 g basis.

  • Buying extra packs without a suitable place to store them

    This product is listed as needing to be stored in a dry place. If you’re keeping a larger supply, it’s even more important to be able to seal opened packs properly.

    Check the best-before date on each pack and store opened packs in a dry place, sealed tightly.
