Choose mini Dutch syrup waffles if you’re serving them from a shared plate on King’s Day. If you want to put sealed portions in lunchboxes, choose individually wrapped waffles with clearly stated portion packaging. A large pack is suitable when you don’t need individually wrapped portions. Compare the number of waffles or portions, and check the label for allergens before sharing them.
If you’re putting Dutch syrup waffles on a plate or handing them out to a group, it helps to know the number of waffles or portions in the pack. PLUS lists 25 Daelmans Mini Stroopwafels Caramel, while Lidl lists approximately 37 Sondey mini butter Dutch syrup waffles.
For lunchboxes or handing out individual portions, the way the pack is divided matters more than the total weight alone. Jumbo lists Kanjers Original Stroopwafels in a pack containing four individually wrapped pairs.
If you’re sharing Dutch syrup waffles with others, check the allergen and nutritional information for the exact variety. The Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority highlights the importance of allergen information on food labels; ingredients can vary between varieties.

Compare the nutritional information per portion on the packs you’re considering, and check the weight of each portion. The Netherlands Nutrition Centre lists 14,7 g of sugars for an extra-large 40 g Dutch syrup waffle; this figure won’t necessarily apply to a mini waffle or another variety.
