Aniseed topping fans

Who is this for?
Groups looking for something to help themselves to
If you’re mainly looking for an easy-to-share snack, consider whether loose sprinkles without rusks, yoghurt or cake will suit the way you plan to serve them.
Shoppers checking ingredients
If you need to avoid wheat, the label matters more than the pack size: Jumbo lists wheat starch in De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes.
What should you look for when choosing?

Common mistakes

Assuming a 270 g pack is ready to share as a snack
Albert Heijn lists De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes in a 270 g pack. The quantity alone doesn’t tell you whether loose sprinkles will be convenient to share during a night in front of the TV.
Before buying, think about what you want to serve the Muisjes on and how much you’ll need.
-
Overlooking wheat in the ingredients
Jumbo lists wheat starch as an ingredient in De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes. This is important if anyone at the table needs to avoid wheat.
Read the current ingredients and allergen information on the pack before serving the product.
-
Choosing whole Muisjes as an identical alternative
According to Jumbo, De Ruijter Feest Muisjes 330 g are a different variety from Gestampte Muisjes. So a larger pack won’t give you the crushed version.
Choose whole Muisjes only if that form suits what you want to serve.
