Who is this relevant to?
Those planning portions for study sessions
If you want to portion out a treat in advance or take one along for a break, mini stroopwafels or individually wrapped ones can be practical. The packaging does not, in itself, change the nutritional values per 100 g.
Those checking allergens
For the Daelmans Snackpack Chocolade and Mini's Chocolade, PLUS lists wheat, milk and soya, and warns that they may contain nuts. If this information affects your choice, check the latest packaging.
What should you look for when choosing?
If you’re specifically looking for a dark chocolate stroopwafel to enjoy while studying, start by checking the type of chocolate. The packaging, nutritional information and allergens will help you decide whether the product also suits your planned break.
| What to consider | What should you check? | Who is this most important for? |
|---|---|---|
| Dark or milk chocolate | Read the product description and ingredients. Check the stated cocoa percentage if you want to base your choice on it. | If I’m looking for a pronounced dark chocolate flavour, I don’t want to rely on the word ‘chocolate’ alone. Around 36% of consumers prioritise this flavour choice. |
| Portion size | Compare the number of waffles, the packaging format and the nutritional values per 100 g and, if provided, per portion. | For a long study session, I want to decide in advance how many waffles to set out. For around 29% of consumers, portion planning is the most important factor. |
| Allergens | Read the current ingredients list, allergen information and any warnings about traces. | If I need to avoid certain ingredients, the label comes before flavour or size. For around 21% of consumers, checking this is the top priority. |
| Sharing | Check the number of pieces and whether the waffles are individually wrapped. | If I’m bringing stroopwafels to share during a study break, I want them to be easy to hand out. Around 14% of consumers choose primarily based on how easy they are to share. |
Common mistakes
-
Assuming chocolate means dark chocolate
The word ‘chocolate’ doesn’t tell you which type of chocolate is used on a stroopwafel. PLUS describes both the Daelmans Snackpack Chocolade and Mini's Chocolade as stroopwafels with milk chocolate.
Look for an explicit mention of dark chocolate on the current packaging or product page, and check the cocoa percentage if it matters to your flavour choice.
-
Judging a mini by its size alone
A smaller waffle can be easier to share, but that alone tells you nothing about the nutritional values per 100 g. For Daelmans Mini's Chocolade, PLUS lists 469 kcal, 41 g of sugars and 13 g of saturated fat per 100 g.
Compare the nutritional information per 100 g and think about how many pieces you want to set out for your break.
-
Guessing allergens from the product name
According to PLUS, the two Daelmans chocolate varieties mentioned contain wheat, milk and soya, and may contain nuts. The name of a flavour variety won’t give you this information.
Check the ingredients and allergen information on the packaging of the product you’re actually using.
