For a snack with your coffee while you’re out and about, you can portion De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes from the 270 g pack into a clean, dry, sealable container. The 6 g serving listed by Albert Heijn is not an individually wrapped sachet. If you’re mainly looking for a different sprinkling texture, De Ruijter Anijshagel is a different product to compare, not a mini version of Gestampte Muisjes. If you specifically want a ready-to-use, single-serving pack, check that this is explicitly stated for the product on offer.

Pitfalls to avoid when buying
-
Mistaking a serving size for a mini pack
The 6 g listed by Albert Heijn for De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes is a nutritional serving within a 270 g pack. It doesn’t mean the product comes in a box of individually wrapped servings.
Check whether individual sachets or cups are explicitly mentioned on the pack. Choose the larger pack to take with you only if you’re happy to portion it yourself.

Assuming Anijshagel is the same product
Albert Heijn describes Gestampte Muisjes as crushed, sugar-coated aniseed and Anijshagel as sugar strands with anise flavour. They are different product types with different ingredients.
First choose the type of sprinkles you want, then compare the ingredients on the relevant pack.
