Choose the pack size to suit when you plan to enjoy your pastry, rather than simply opting for the largest one. For lunchboxes, the number of pastries in the pack matters too; if you’re sharing, the net weight is a useful starting point. Before ordering online, check the ingredients, allergens and delivery options for the variant you’ve chosen.
Which size is right for you?
Lunchbox shoppers buying a small quantity
If you’re planning just a few occasions to enjoy them, compare the net weight before choosing a larger pack. If you want to take individual portions with you, check separately whether the pack states the number of pastries and how they’re wrapped.
Families and people sharing
If you’re planning to enjoy them on several occasions, you can compare the pack sizes. For example, Jumbo lists 7 pieces in its 325 g Aviateur pack. A larger product listed in a supermarket isn’t automatically available for online delivery.
Shoppers with ingredient or allergen requirements
Check the exact variant: ingredients and allergens vary from product to product. Read the latest product information when ordering, and check the packaging before eating once your order arrives.
What should you look for when choosing?
First, work out how many pastries you’ll need for the occasions you have planned. Then check the number of pieces in the pack and the information about ingredients and allergens separately.

Common mistakes
-
Assuming a higher weight means more individual lunchbox portions
Net weight tells you the total weight, not how the pastries are divided up. Jumbo explicitly lists 7 pieces in its 325 g Aviateur Kano pack, but that doesn’t confirm that they’re individually wrapped.
If individual portions are important, check the number of pieces and the packaging for the variant you want to order.
-
Guessing allergens from the product name
A name mentioning butter or almond paste doesn’t tell you which allergens or possible traces are listed for the exact variant. Aviateur and PLUS list different ingredients and allergens in their product information.
Read the full information when ordering, and check the packaging you receive before eating.
-
Assuming a product listed in a shop is available for delivery
For its 330 g Heerlijck Banket Kano pastries, ALDI directs shoppers to its stores. Lidl says its 325 g Sondey Kano pastries are only available in store.
Check whether the variant you’ve chosen can be added to your supermarket’s online basket and whether you can select a delivery slot.

Frequently asked questions
Can I tell how many lunchbox portions are in a pack from its weight?
No. The weight tells you the net contents, but not how many individual portions there are. Jumbo does list 7 pieces for its 325 g Aviateur Kano pastries; check the packaging separately if you want to know how those pieces are wrapped.
Where can I check allergens when ordering kano pastries online?
Check the ingredients and allergens for the exact variant on the latest product page, then read the packaging before eating once your order arrives. Don’t rely on the name or picture alone: the listed ingredients vary between products.
Can I get every pack I see online delivered?
No. An online product page doesn’t always confirm that delivery is available. ALDI directs shoppers to its stores for Heerlijck Banket Kano pastries, while Lidl says Sondey Kano pastries are only available in store. Check whether the product can be added to your online basket at your chosen supermarket.
Can I still change my order if I want a different size?
According to PLUS’s ordering information, you can change an order up to 24 hours before your delivery slot. Check the terms and conditions of your chosen supermarket and when your order becomes final.
