Choose De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes if you want the crushed variety for topping bread, rusks or yoghurt, or for baking. Albert Heijn and Jumbo list the product in a 270 g pack; whether one pack is enough for a group depends on how many times you plan to serve it and how much you use each time. If you’re considering another aniseed product, compare the product type rather than just the pack size. If you have allergies, check the current label.
If you’re catering for several people or planning multiple snack occasions, it helps to work out in advance how much you’ll want to sprinkle or use in a recipe. Albert Heijn and Jumbo list De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes in a 270 g pack; choose the number of packs to suit your plans.
Jumbo suggests using Gestampte Muisjes on bread and rusks, in yoghurt and for baking. If you’re mainly after an aniseed flavour, you could also see whether the different product type, aniseed sprinkles, suits your snack idea.
Jumbo lists cereals containing gluten and wheat for the 270 g pack. Before using it, check the ingredients and allergen information on the pack you buy, particularly if milk or possible cross-contamination is a concern.
Choose this: if the crushed product is right for what you want to sprinkle or bake with.
Bear in mind: a 270 g pack may not be enough for several snack occasions.
Choose this: if you’re looking for sugar sprinkles with an aniseed flavour rather than specifically Gestampte Muisjes, as Albert Heijn describes the product type.

Choose this: if you want the familiar shape of whole Muisjes on your snack table.
Bear in mind: the 330 g varieties listed by Albert Heijn and Jumbo are not Gestampte Muisjes.
