De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes is a good choice for a neighbourhood get-together if you want to sprinkle sweet aniseed over nibbles. The 270 g pack is not an individually wrapped bar: you’ll need something to serve the sprinkles on and will have to portion them yourself. If you’re looking for a snack you can hand out to each person straight away, choose a product from another category.
If you’d like to add aniseed sprinkles to bread, rusks or yoghurt now and then, you can choose how much to take from the pack. Albert Heijn lists a 6 g serving for De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes; this is not an individually wrapped portion.
Gestampte Muisjes can be used to finish off rusks or dessert-style nibbles, for example. You’ll need to provide a base and a way to serve the sprinkles to your guests; this isn’t a bar you can hand out as a snack.
If your guests need to avoid wheat or gluten, check the allergen information before serving. Albert Heijn and Jumbo’s product information lists wheat and cereals containing gluten; also check the current packaging and nutritional values per 100 g.
When choosing Gestampte Muisjes for yourself or a neighbourhood get-together, first decide whether you want a snack you can hand out or a topping. Then consider whether the aniseed flavour will work with your nibbles and what ingredient information your guests may need to check.
