Choose twin packs if you want to serve speculaas biscuits alongside several cups of coffee with ease. A larger, unportioned pack is a better fit if you’d like to fill a serving plate yourself. Filled speculaas is another option for a more festive coffee break, but check availability and the allergen information for the variety you choose.
If you want to serve small portions alongside several cups of coffee, Lotus Biscoff twin packs are one option. Lotus Bakeries Nederland lists packs of 10x2 and 20x2 biscuits; check the pack format if you want to serve the portions individually.
If you’d like to decide for yourself how many biscuits to put out, it’s worth comparing larger packs. Albert Heijn lists AH Bakkers speculaas biscuits at 600 g; also check the number of biscuits if that matters for your guests.
For a more festive coffee break, you could consider filled speculaas. ALDI Nederland features a 240 g variety with almond paste filling in its St Nicholas range; check availability before you count on finding it.

|---|---|---|
| Easy to share | Check the number of biscuits and how the portions are packed; Lotus Bakeries Nederland lists packs of 10x2 and 20x2 biscuits. | If I want to serve biscuits quickly with every cup of coffee, clearly defined portions matter to me. Around 44% of consumers would say this is their main need. |
| Filling a serving plate | Compare the net weight and, if listed, the number of biscuits. Albert Heijn features AH Bakkers speculaas biscuits at 600 g. | For a larger group, I want to decide for myself how many biscuits to put on the plate, rather than being tied to set portions. This is the main need for around 33% of consumers. |
| Filled speculaas | Check the filling, the latest allergen information and availability. ALDI Nederland features filled speculaas with almond paste in its St Nicholas range. | For a festive coffee break, I’d rather choose filled pieces than lots of small biscuits. This would be the top preference for around 23% of consumers. |
A 600 g pack contains more speculaas than a 250 g pack, but the weight doesn’t tell you how many biscuits you can share out. A label such as 20x2 biscuits gives you a clearer idea of the portion format.
Decide whether you want to fill a serving plate or hand out portions, then compare both the weight and the number of biscuits.
Ingredients vary from one product to another. Lotus Bakeries Nederland lists wheat flour and soya flour in Original Speculoos; don’t assume the same applies to filled speculaas or other brands.
