A 270 g single pack of De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes is a good choice if you only use them occasionally or want to see how much you get through on the go. A multipack may suit several lunchboxes or travellers, but check the number of packs, the current best-before date and the label before buying. Crushed aniseed sprinkles are intended as a sweet topping for things such as bread or rusks, not as a snack to eat on their own.
You want to take enough crushed aniseed sprinkles for several travellers or days out. A multipack is only a worthwhile choice if you know how many individual packs it contains and whether you’ll use them before their best-before date.
You take crushed aniseed sprinkles to have with bread, rusks or yoghurt, and don’t want to stock up. Albert Heijn and Jumbo list a 270 g single pack of De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes.
You need to know exactly what’s in the pack you’re buying. The product information for the 270 g single pack at Albert Heijn and Jumbo lists wheat starch, wheat and cereals containing gluten; check the label before use.
A good choice if: you only take crushed aniseed sprinkles with you occasionally or want to see how much you use first.
The trade-off: you may need to buy another pack if you’re packing several lunchboxes or preparing for several days out.
A good choice if: you’ll actually use several packs for travellers, lunchboxes or future journeys.
The trade-off: a larger stock needs to be stored in a dry place and only offers an advantage if you use the packs in good time.
