Choose mini syrup waffles for Sunday breakfast based on how you plan to serve them: a stated weight per portion can help you divide them up in advance, while pack size matters more when several people are sharing. The mini size alone tells you nothing about nutritional value or allergens, so check the portion size, nutritional information and ingredients on the packaging.
If you want to serve a small sweet treat in pre-portioned amounts, check the weight per portion and how many waffles it contains. Albert Heijn lists a portion of 8 g for AH Stroopwafel mini karamel zeezout; a stated portion may not be the same size for another product.
When serving several people, the pack size matters, as does the number of pieces or portions if this is stated. Jumbo, PLUS and ALDI each list a 300 g pack of mini syrup waffles; Lidl gives around 37 pieces in 316 g for the Sondey variety.
A classic syrup filling, butter or salted caramel could influence your choice. If ingredients, sugars or allergens matter to you, check the label on the variety you choose.
First decide how much you want to serve per person. Then compare the pack sizes and ingredients of the varieties that suit your needs.
| What to consider | What should you look for? | Who is it important for? |
|---|---|---|
| Portion size | Compare the weight in grams and the number of waffles per stated portion. | If you want to set out a small amount for everyone in advance, a clearly stated portion weight is useful. Portion control would be the main priority for around 42% of consumers. |
| Pack size | Check the net weight and, where stated, the number of pieces or portions. | If you’re putting out a plate for several people, you’ll want to know how much is in the pack. Having enough to share would come first for around 33% of consumers. |
| Flavour and ingredients | Read the ingredients list, allergen information and nutritional details for the variety you choose. | If you’re choosing between fillings and flavours, you’ll also want to check what’s in each variety. Comparing ingredients would be the top priority for around 25% of consumers. |
Portion sizes vary between packs. Albert Heijn lists 8 g for AH Stroopwafel mini karamel zeezout, Jumbo lists 24 g for its butter variety, and Albert Heijn counts four Daelmans minis together as a 32 g portion.
Check both the weight and the number of waffles per portion before serving them.
The AH, Jumbo, Daelmans and PLUS varieties described list ingredients including wheat, milk or soya. A different flavour or pack may have different information.
If you have an allergy, check the label on the specific pack before buying and serving.
A larger pack may suit a table where everyone is sharing, but it doesn’t tell you how much you’ll want to serve per person.
Choose the quantity based on the number of people and the portions you want to serve.
Ingredients and nutritional information can change. That means a product description you viewed earlier may not match the pack you buy.
Check the current packaging for ingredients, allergens and storage advice.

No. Check the weight and the number of waffles per stated portion too. Albert Heijn lists 8 g for AH Stroopwafel mini karamel zeezout, Jumbo lists 24 g for its butter variety, and Albert Heijn counts four Daelmans minis together as 32 g.
Read the allergen information on the pack you’re buying. The varieties described list ingredients including wheat, milk and soya, but the ingredients can vary between products.
Use the information on the packaging you’re actually buying to check the ingredients and allergens. Product information can change, so don’t rely on a description you viewed earlier if you need to check a particular ingredient.
Follow the storage instructions on the packaging. After opening, check whether the pack recommends keeping it sealed or using a tin, and check the best-before date.
You can serve a mini syrup waffle as a sweet addition, but its size doesn’t make it a complete breakfast. If you want to put together a breakfast in line with the Dutch Wheel of Five, use foods from the Wheel as your foundation; the Netherlands Nutrition Centre advises choosing a smaller portion of foods outside it.
