If you want both a vegan option and a mini stroopwafel, don’t choose on size alone: the mini versions discussed here from Albert Heijn, Jumbo, Daelmans at PLUS and Lidl contain butter or milk. Albert Heijn does label its AH Terra stroopwafels as vegan, but they aren’t a mini product. Only compromise on size if that works for you, and always check the current packaging before buying.
You want small stroopwafels, but no butter or milk. Based on their listed ingredients, the mini versions described by Albert Heijn, Jumbo, PLUS and Lidl don’t meet that requirement. Check any other product individually before choosing it.
You’re looking for small waffles to enjoy with coffee or share around. Albert Heijn lists a serving size of 8 g for AH Mini; Jumbo lists around 12 servings for its mini pack. Both products contain butter and are therefore not vegan.
If being vegan matters more than having a small size, you could consider a regular product. Albert Heijn labels AH Terra Plantaardig stroopwafels as vegan; the pack contains 390 g and the product isn’t a mini stroopwafel.
If being vegan and choosing a mini size are both essential, first check that the product is suitable for vegans, then consider its size and portions.
When to choose it: Choose a regular product if you can compromise on mini size; Albert Heijn labels AH Terra Plantaardig stroopwafels as vegan.
The trade-off: These aren’t mini stroopwafels. Albert Heijn lists a 390 g pack and a serving size of 39 g.
When to choose it: Consider the mini versions discussed here only if you’re not shopping for vegan products and are mainly looking for small waffles.
The trade-off: The mini products from Albert Heijn, Jumbo, Daelmans at PLUS and Lidl list butter or milk.
When to choose it: Stick to both requirements if a regular size isn’t an alternative for you.
The trade-off: Only buy once the current packaging or product information confirms both the mini size and vegan suitability.
| What to consider | What should you check? | Who is this important for? |
|---|---|---|
| Vegan suitability | Check the current ingredients and look for an explicit vegan label.

For around 50% of consumers, vegan suitability is the top priority. |
| Mini size and portions | Compare the listed serving size and number of servings; don’t assume the waffles are individually wrapped. | For coffee or sharing, I want small portions that are easy to divide, without forgetting my vegan requirement. Portioning is the biggest consideration for around 30% of consumers. |
| A suitable alternative | Check the current range and decide whether a regular vegan product would work as an alternative for you. | If I can’t find a suitable mini product, I want an alternative without unknowingly compromising on my vegan requirement. A practical alternative is the main concern for around 20% of consumers. |
A small size tells you nothing about the ingredients. The mini stroopwafels discussed here from Albert Heijn, Jumbo, Daelmans at PLUS and Lidl list butter or milk.
Check vegan suitability first, then look at the size.
According to the Voedingscentrum, some E-numbers can come from either plant or animal sources. The name alone doesn’t tell you which.
If the source matters and there’s no clear vegan label, ask the manufacturer to confirm or choose a product whose suitability is clear.
Jumbo’s page for Vegan Stroopwafels 315 g says the product is no longer part of its online range. So finding a product page doesn’t mean you can order it.
Check current availability and the label on the packaging before buying.
A listed serving size doesn’t tell you whether the waffles are individually wrapped or how many you’ll ultimately serve.
Check the serving size, number of pieces and packaging separately. If you can compromise on mini size, you can divide a regular vegan product into smaller portions yourself.
