For coffee with several friends, the 330 g pink-and-white and blue-and-white packs are a good starting point: the packs we checked state that they contain 22 portions, but how much you need depends on how you serve them. Choose Feestmuisjes if you’re not looking for a specifically pink-and-white or blue-and-white presentation, or crushed aniseed sprinkles if that’s the product style you want. If anyone has a food allergy, check that the variety you choose is suitable with your guests beforehand, and read the pack label.
You want to work out whether one pack will be enough for the rusks you’re serving. Albert Heijn states that the 330 g pink-and-white pack contains 22 portions; how much you actually use depends on how you serve them.
You’re looking for a colourful, festive touch for a coffee get-together, or specifically want pink-and-white or blue-and-white sprinkles to suit the occasion.
You want to know whether your chosen variety is suitable for your guests before serving it. Check the ingredients and allergen information on the pack itself.
Decide how much you want to serve and which look best suits your coffee get-together. Then check that the pack meets your guests’ dietary requirements and that you’ll be able to use any leftovers.
| What to consider | What to check when buying | Who it matters to |
|---|---|---|
| Pack size and portions | Compare the weight and stated portions with the number of guests and what you’re serving. Albert Heijn states that the 330 g pink-and-white pack contains 22 portions. | If I’m preparing rusks for several friends, I don’t want to have to open a second pack halfway through; having enough in the pack is the main consideration for around 36% of consumers. |
| Colour and occasion | Choose between Feestmuisjes and a pink-and-white or blue-and-white variety to suit the look you want. | For an everyday coffee get-together, I look for different colours than I would for a colour-themed occasion. The presentation is the first consideration for around 29% of consumers. |
| Ingredients and allergens | Read the label on the exact variety you’re buying. The blue-and-white sprinkles and Feestmuisjes we checked list wheat and cereals containing gluten. | If a guest needs to avoid wheat or cereals containing gluten, I want to know which alternative is suitable before serving; around 21% of consumers give this check top priority. |
| Using up leftovers | Think about whether you’ll also use the sprinkles on bread, rusks or yoghurt later, and check the storage advice on the pack. | I want to be able to use an opened pack after coffee. Making use of leftovers matters most to around 14% of consumers. |
The portion guidance on the 330 g pink-and-white and blue-and-white packs we checked doesn’t tell you how many rusks or pieces of cake you can top with one pack.
Base your estimate on the number of guests and how you’ll serve them. Use the stated portions as a guide, not a guarantee.
The blue-and-white sprinkles and Feestmuisjes we checked contain wheat and cereals containing gluten. A colour that suits the occasion doesn’t automatically make a variety suitable for every guest.
Ask about food allergies in advance and read the ingredients and allergen information on the pack you choose.
Albert Heijn points out that product information can change. So what you read online previously may not always match the information on the pack you buy.
Check the ingredients, allergens, best-before date and storage instructions on the pack.
Rusks can go soft if they aren’t sealed properly. The storage advice on the aniseed sprinkles pack is important too.
Seal both well after coffee, and follow the instructions on the sprinkles pack.
The ranges shown by Jumbo and PLUS include De Ruijter Feestmuisjes, pink-and-white, blue-and-white and crushed aniseed sprinkles.
These two 330 g packs are suited to a coffee get-together where blue-and-white or pink fits the look you’re after. Choose the colour to suit the occasion and check the information on the pack before serving.

It depends on how much you serve each guest. Albert Heijn lists 22 portions for the 330 g pink-and-white pack we checked, while PLUS gives around 22 portions for the blue-and-white pack. Use this as a starting point when planning your coffee table.
The blue-and-white sprinkles and Feestmuisjes we checked aren’t suitable: their product information lists wheat and cereals containing gluten. Check the label on the actual pack for every variety you choose, and if necessary, agree on a separate alternative with your guest.
Feestmuisjes are a good fit for a colourful, general-purpose spread if you’re not specifically looking for pink-and-white or blue-and-white sprinkles. This is a choice based on appearance, not on any proven difference in taste or nutritional value.
Seal the packs well and follow the storage advice and best-before date on the sprinkles pack. The Netherlands Nutrition Centre advises keeping opened wholemeal rusks tightly sealed in a cool, dry, dark place.
