Choose De Ruijter crushed aniseed sprinkles in the 270 g pack if you want to share a sweet aniseed topping and the quantity suits the number of people eating and breaks planned; both Albert Heijn and Jumbo list this pack size. If you’d prefer more in a pack, Jumbo also lists 330 g varieties of aniseed sprinkles, but these are different products from the crushed variety. If you’re sharing them, check the ingredients and allergens on the pack.
If you’re bringing a sweet topping for several colleagues, you’ll need to decide whether 270 g is enough for the number of people eating and breaks planned. Bread, crispbread or yoghurt can all make a good base for sprinkling the aniseed sprinkles over.
For these shoppers, choosing the crushed variety matters more than simply looking at the pack size. Albert Heijn suggests using aniseed toppings on bread, crispbread, porridge, breakfast cereal and yoghurt.
If someone in the group needs to check ingredients or allergens, the label on the pack you buy is important. Albert Heijn warns that online ingredient and allergen information can change.
For a shared night-shift break, first decide whether you specifically want the crushed variety or whether another aniseed topping would do. Then check the quantity, where you can buy it and the label.
Choose these: if you specifically want De Ruijter crushed aniseed sprinkles as a topping you can sprinkle over food.
Bear in mind: Albert Heijn and Jumbo list a 270 g pack; you’ll need to decide whether that’s enough for your group.
Choose these: if a larger pack is your priority and you’re happy with a different variety.
Bear in mind: Jumbo lists varieties including Feestmuisjes and coloured aniseed sprinkles in 330 g packs; these are not the same product as the crushed variety.
Choose these: if you’re looking for an aniseed topping but don’t specifically need the crushed variety.
Bear in mind: aniseed strands are a different product, so compare the texture and the information on the label.
| What to consider | What to check when buying | Who it matters to |
|---|---|---|
| Enough to share | Compare the net weight with the number of people eating and breaks planned. The 330 g varieties listed by Jumbo are not the crushed variety. | If I’m bringing a topping for several colleagues, I want to know whether one pack will cover the planned breaks. Around 40% of consumers prioritise having enough in the pack. |
| Being able to buy it in time | Check the current range and delivery or collection options at your chosen shop before ordering or visiting. | If the shift is starting soon, I want to know whether I can get the product I’ve chosen in time. This is a priority for around 30% of consumers. |
| Ingredients and allergens | Read the ingredients list and allergen information on the pack you’re actually sharing; online information can change. | If a colleague needs to avoid certain ingredients, I want to be able to check the label before putting anything out. This is the main concern for around 20% of consumers. |
| Flavour and how to serve them | Decide whether you want crushed aniseed sprinkles as a topping and what you’ll serve them with, such as bread, crispbread or yoghurt. | If I’m mainly looking for an aniseed flavour to go with different break-time snacks, how I’ll use it matters more to me than a larger pack. Around 10% of consumers give this priority. |
Albert Heijn and Jumbo list De Ruijter crushed aniseed sprinkles in a 270 g pack. Whether one pack is enough depends on how many colleagues are eating and how often you serve it.
Count the planned snack breaks and compare the pack sizes. Choose a 330 g variety only if a different type of aniseed sprinkle will also suit.
You may need an extra pack for several breaks.
Albert Heijn says product information, including ingredients and allergens, can change. This is particularly important when you’re sharing food with colleagues.
Before serving, read the ingredients list and allergen information on the pack you’ve bought.
The fact that there’s a supermarket chain nearby doesn’t necessarily mean De Ruijter crushed aniseed sprinkles will be available there when you need them.
Check the current range or ask the store before setting off, particularly if you’re shopping for a night shift that’s coming up soon.
Crushed aniseed sprinkles are meant to be sprinkled over something. Without a suitable base, you won’t be able to serve them as planned.
For example, bring bread, crispbread or yoghurt if you want to serve them as a topping during the break.

Yes. Check the allergen information on the pack you’re sharing, especially if anyone has a food allergy. The Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority explains why allergen information on labels matters, and Albert Heijn warns that online product information can change.
No, don’t assume that without checking. Holland Snack Express lists wheat starch among the ingredients in the 270 g pack of De Ruijter crushed aniseed sprinkles. Read the ingredients and allergen information on the pack you actually buy.
First check the current range at the shop you’re planning to visit. A store’s location or opening times won’t tell you whether it stocks this specific product. This is especially important if you need the sprinkles for an upcoming night shift.
