Commuter planning one coffee break
You want to decide in advance how many waffles to have with your coffee. Albert Heijn gives a serving size of 8 g for its regular AH Mini stroopwafels; you decide how many to take with you.
Want one mini stroopwafel with your coffee on the go? Start by checking the stated serving size, then decide how many to take with you. For several coffee breaks or sharing, a resealable bag may be more practical; a bag that states the number of pieces is especially useful for handing them out. If you’re choosing a flavoured variety, also compare the nutritional information and allergens on the current packaging.

For a shared coffee break, the number of pieces, the bag size and whether you can reseal an opened pack all matter.
You want to check the ingredients, nutritional information and allergens before choosing a variety. Always check the current label for the specific product.
First decide how many waffles you want to take for each coffee break. Then check whether the packaging suits eating on the go, storing or sharing.
