Choose a box of 9 × 270 g of Gestampte Muisjes if you’re planning several sweet serving occasions for a large group and can use the whole quantity. PLUS suggests serving them with bread, rusks, yoghurt and pastries. For a savoury fish dinner, though, it’s best to try the sweet aniseed flavour in your recipe using a single pack first.
If you’re serving bread, rusks, yoghurt or pastries topped with Gestampte Muisjes to a large group, a single box of 9 × 270 g can make it easier to plan quantities. Just check whether you’ll need around 2.43 kg in total.
When serving guests, the label on the pack you use is important: FoodWorld-XL’s product information lists wheat and cereals containing gluten. The Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority says that consumers must be given allergen information for non-prepacked foods in a way other than on a label.
First, decide whether the sweet aniseed sprinkles will work with your menu. Then choose between individual packs and a box of 9 × 270 g, and check the allergen information if you’re serving guests.
