Common mistakes
-
Thinking of a sweet topping as a complete breakfast
Gestampte Muisjes is a topping. You’ll also need a base to put it on for breakfast.
Decide in advance whether you want to have it with bread, crispbread or yoghurt, for example, and whether that combination suits your morning routine.
-
Relying only on the ingredients information online
Product information can change. If you have an allergy or intolerance, check the current allergen information on the packaging.
Before using the product, check the packaging itself, including the ingredients list and any warnings about cross-contamination.
