Who is this relevant to?

If you’re looking for a kano pastry for one occasion

You want to know whether a pack contains individually wrapped pastries, rather than having to judge by the total pack weight alone. PLUS explicitly describes Aviateur Kano Pastries 230 g as ‘Individually Wrapped’.

If you want to compare pack sizes

You want to know how many kano pastries you’re getting before you buy, and whether a larger pack suits the way you’ll use them. The supermarket options mentioned come in different pack sizes.

If you need to check the ingredients

If you have an allergy or intolerance, check the ingredients and allergen information on the specific pack. Product information from retailers including PLUS and Jumbo lists various allergens and possible traces.

What should you look for when choosing?

If you only want one kano pastry, start by checking how it’s packaged. Then see whether the filling suits your taste and, if needed, read the ingredients on the pack.

What to considerWhat to check before buyingWho it matters to
Packaging Check the description on the pack and the number of pastries. ‘Individually Wrapped’ alone doesn’t tell you exactly how each pastry is packaged. If I want to eat one kano pastry, I want to know what will be left in the pack afterwards. Around 34% of consumers prioritise packaging.
Filling Read the product description and ingredients if you’re specifically looking for a butter biscuit or almond paste filling. If I’m in the mood for a particular filling, I don’t want to rely on the name ‘kano pastries’ alone. The filling is the deciding factor for around 33% of consumers.
Ingredients and allergens Check the ingredients, highlighted allergens and warnings about possible traces on the pack you’re buying. If I have an allergy or intolerance, I need to be able to check the specific label before choosing. Ingredients and allergens are a priority for around 33% of consumers.

Common mistakes

  • Assuming ‘Individually Wrapped’ confirms that the pastries are sold loose

    PLUS describes Aviateur Kano Pastries 230 g as ‘Individually Wrapped’, but that wording alone doesn’t tell you how many pastries are in the pack or exactly how each one is wrapped.

    Check the pack description and the number of pastries if you want to take just one kano pastry with you.

  • Assuming you know which allergens are present from the filling

    The product information for the kano pastries mentioned lists several allergens or possible traces. The flavour or product name is no substitute for this information.

    Read the ingredients list and allergen information on the specific pack.

  • Assuming a product listing means it’s currently available

    Albert Heijn lists AH Butter Kano Pastries and AH BASIC Kano Pastries as discontinued. ALDI and Lidl direct shoppers to their stores for the options mentioned.

    Before you shop, check whether the pack you want is available at your local store.

Frequently asked questions

Which kano pastries should I choose if I want to take one for myself?

First, check the packaging description and the number of pastries. PLUS lists Aviateur Individually Wrapped Kano Pastries 230 g; check the pack to see exactly how the pastries are packaged.

Are butter kano pastries suitable for people with a nut allergy?

You can’t tell from the word ‘butter’. The product information for the Jumbo and PLUS varieties mentioned lists almonds or nuts and possible traces, so check the label on the pack you’re planning to buy.

How should I store an opened pack of kano pastries?

Follow the storage advice on your packaging. Jumbo and PLUS recommend storing the varieties mentioned in a cool, dry place. For AH Butter Kano Pastries, Albert Heijn advises storing the product in a sealed tin after opening.

Is the online ingredients list enough if I have an allergy?

Also check the ingredients and allergens on the pack you actually buy. Online product information can change, so the details on that specific pack are important when making your choice.
