Who should consider the packaging?

Solo travellers with limited luggage space

You want to take a caramel waffle with you without having to keep an opened bag after snacking. Check the difference between one waffle per wrapper and a duo with two waffles in the same wrapper.

Travellers who want to plan their portions in advance

You want to know how many waffles you’ll be opening at once and the nutritional value for that amount. So check both the weight and the information per 100 g and per serving.

Shoppers with a food allergy

Check the current ingredients and allergen information before eating. The regular caramel waffles mentioned contain ingredients such as wheat, milk or soya; ingredients vary by product.

What should you look for when choosing?

First decide how many waffles you want to open at once. Then check the label for allergens and compare the nutritional information for the portion you actually plan to eat.

Common mistakes

  • Mistaking a duo for one individually wrapped waffle

    The Daelmans duo described by PLUS contains two caramel waffles in one 78 g wrapper. If you only want to open one waffle, this isn’t the packaging you’re looking for.

    Check the number of pieces in each wrapper, rather than relying on words such as ‘per wrapper’ on the packaging.

  • Assuming the allergens based on the brand

    The Daelmans, Kanjers and PLUS products mentioned list different combinations of wheat, milk and soya. A product name doesn’t tell you which allergens apply to the variant you’ve chosen.

    If you have an allergy, always check the current label on the pack you’re buying.

  • Choosing a large bag for a single snack break

    Once you’ve opened a multipack, you’ll need to store the remaining waffles. The Voedingscentrum advises keeping biscuits in a cool, dry, dark place in a tightly sealed container.

    Choose a number of waffles that suits your trip, and think about how you’ll seal an opened pack while you’re out and about.

  • Reading values per 100 g as values per waffle

    Waffles and wrappers can vary in weight. For example, Jumbo lists 196 kcal and 15.1 g of sugars per 40 g for the Kanjers pack of extra-large caramel waffles.

    Check which quantity the nutritional values refer to, and count both waffles if you eat a whole duo wrapper.

Brands to consider

Daelmans

A brand to consider if you’re looking for waffles sold by the wrapper: PLUS describes a 78 g Daelmans duo.

  • The duo contains two caramel waffles in one wrapper.
  • Two waffles per wrapper won’t suit you if you want to open exactly one waffle; check the label if you have allergies.

Kanjers

Jumbo describes a Kanjers pack containing four pairs of extra-large caramel waffles.

  • The waffles are grouped in pairs, making it clear how many you’ll get from each pack unit.
  • For this Jumbo variant, the information per 40 g lists 196 kcal and 15.1 g of sugars; check the values for the amount you plan to eat.

Sondey

Lidl describes Sondey butter caramel waffles as a pack of 12, weighing 480 g.

  • The number of pieces and total weight make it easier to compare pack sizes.
  • Check the pack to see whether the waffles are individually wrapped if that matters for your trip.

PLUS

PLUS describes a bag of 10 caramel waffles for anyone looking for a multipack.

  • The number of waffles is stated for this variant.
  • The ingredients list includes wheat, milk and soya; if you have allergies, check the current label.

Biscotto

ALDI lists 300 g of Biscotto mini caramel waffles as an alternative if you like smaller waffles.

  • These are mini caramel waffles, not one large waffle.
  • Check the pack for the number of waffles per wrapper, the ingredients and the nutritional information.

Frequently asked questions
