If you’re looking specifically to have gluten-free kaiser rolls delivered, Albert Heijn lists Schär Kaiser brötchen as an online orderable bake-at-home product. If the shape of the roll matters less, you could look at gluten-free pistolets from PLUS or gluten-free loaves from Jumbo. Check the current label before eating, and see in your own basket whether delivery or collection is available to your address.
When your order arrives, check the packaging to make sure the roll is explicitly labelled gluten-free or carries the Crossed Grain symbol. The Dutch Coeliac Association also stresses the importance of checking the current label and any information about cross-contamination.
You’re looking for an individual kaiser-style roll to bake at home, not just any gluten-free bread. Albert Heijn lists Schär Kaiser brötchen online; Dirk also lists Schär Kaiserbrötchen, but doesn’t offer a delivery service.
A pistolet or a whole loaf might also suit your meal plan. PLUS lists gluten-free pistolets, while Jumbo lists gluten-free white and multiseed loaves. Always check the label of the specific product you choose.
First, choose a product whose current label you can check. Then compare the ordering options, followed by the shape of the bread, portion sizes and preparation method.
| What to consider | What to check when buying | Who it matters to |
|---|---|---|
| Gluten-free label | Check the packaging when it arrives for a gluten-free label or the Crossed Grain symbol, and read any cross-contamination warnings. | If I’m ordering for someone with coeliac disease, I want to be able to check the label myself rather than rely on an online filter; this is the top priority for around 33% of consumers. |
| Ordering and delivery | Check in your basket whether the product can be delivered to or collected from your postcode. Dirk and Lidl don’t offer grocery delivery. | If I can’t get to a shop, the grocery service I choose needs to offer home delivery. Around 33% of consumers say this is their top priority. |
| Bread shape and preparation | Compare kaiser rolls, pistolets and whole loaves by quantity, weight and preparation instructions. Albert Heijn says its four Schär rolls, weighing 240 g in total, need 6–8 minutes in the oven at 200 °C. | For my meal, I want individual rolls to bake at home, not slices from a whole loaf; this matters most to around 20% of consumers. |
| Ingredients and other allergens | Check the ingredients and allergens for each product. Also look for iodised salt if that’s relevant to your choice. | As well as gluten, I may need to avoid soya or other ingredients. For around 14% of consumers, this additional check is their main buying priority. |

Yes. Albert Heijn says these part-baked rolls need 6–8 minutes in an oven at 200 °C. Follow the instructions on the packaging you receive, especially if you choose a different variety.
Not through a Dirk delivery service: the supermarket says it doesn’t offer one. The online product page can help you identify the product, but it doesn’t mean it’s available for home delivery.
Check the ingredients list for iodised salt. Albert Heijn lists this ingredient in Schär Kaiser brötchen, but don’t assume other gluten-free rolls have the same ingredients just because they’re in the same product category.
