Who is this for?

Anyone who wants to buy just one Kano pastry

You want to enjoy one Kano pastry on New Year’s Eve without having to store the rest of a pack. But a stated portion size doesn’t mean that individual pastries are sold separately.

Anyone happy to share a tray

You’re happy to buy a multipack, as long as you can take one portion and store the rest. Jumbo lists five 55 g portions per pack, and both Jumbo and PLUS provide storage advice for their products.

Anyone who needs to check allergens

You check the current ingredients and warnings before choosing a Kano pastry. The Jumbo and PLUS products described here list wheat, milk, soya, egg and almond, among other allergens.

What should you look for when choosing?

Decide whether you really need an individually sold pastry or would rather share a tray or store the leftovers. If allergens are a concern, check the current packaging before making your choice.

What to consider What should you check? Who is this important for?
Sold individually Check that ‘single item’ means the unit sold, not a portion from a tray. If I only want one Kano pastry for New Year’s Eve, I don’t want to be left with the rest of a pack. For around 46% of consumers, buying an individual pastry is the most important factor.
Portions and storage Check the number of portions, the weight per portion and the storage advice for the rest. A tray works for me if I can take one portion and store the remaining pastries. Around 27% of consumers prioritise portion sizes.
Ingredients and allergens Read the current ingredients list and any ‘may contain’ warnings. If I have an allergy, I want to know which ingredients and possible traces are listed on the packaging before I eat a Kano pastry. For around 27% of consumers, checking this comes first.

Common mistakes

  • Assuming a portion is a Kano pastry sold individually

    Jumbo lists five 55 g portions, but sells them together in a 275 g pack. PLUS also lists a 275 g tray. So a portion size doesn’t tell you whether you can buy just one Kano pastry.

    Check the unit sold if you don’t want any left over. Only choose a tray if you’re happy to store or share the remaining pastries.

  • Checking only the butter or filling

    The Jumbo and PLUS Kano pastries described here list several allergens, including wheat, milk, soya, egg and almond. A product name doesn’t tell you all the ingredients or possible traces.

    Before eating, read the current ingredients list and any ‘may contain’ warnings on the packaging.

  • Assuming the Aviateur listing is currently available to buy online

    The Jumbo page for Aviateur Filled Kano Pastries lists seven pastries per pack, but also says that the product is no longer part of its online range.

    Don’t take this listing as confirmation that you can order the pack online for New Year’s Eve; check availability with the shop where you plan to buy it.

Frequently asked questions

Can I buy a single Kano pastry for New Year’s Eve?

The product listings discussed here don’t confirm that individual pastries are sold separately. Jumbo and PLUS describe 275 g packs; the Aviateur listing is for seven pastries and, according to Jumbo, is no longer part of its online range. Check the unit sold if you definitely want just one Kano pastry.

What should I do with the rest if I take one portion from a tray?

Follow the storage advice on the packaging. Jumbo recommends storing the product in a cool, dry, dark place; PLUS says to store it in a cool, dry place. Seal the pack well after taking a portion and check the use-by information on the pack.

Which allergens are listed for these Kano pastries?

The Jumbo and PLUS options described here list wheat, milk, soya, egg and almond, among other allergens, as well as warnings about possible traces of other cereals or nuts. Before eating, check the current ingredients list and any ‘may contain’ information on the packaging you bought.

Is the online ingredients information enough to choose a Kano pastry?

Use the online information to compare products, but also check the label on the pack before eating the Kano pastry. Albert Heijn notes that ingredients and allergy information can change.
