If you want to grab a biscuit late at night without opening a second biscuit or a packet, a pack with one biscuit per wrapper could be just what you’re looking for. Lotus Biscoff offers a foodservice box containing 300 individually wrapped biscuits. If you’re happy with two biscuits per packet, Lotus Biscoff XL 2P x 10 offers a smaller quantity. With a large pack of regular bakery speculoos biscuits, you’ll need to seal the rest carefully once opened.
Which pack is right for you?
If you want to take one biscuit at a time
If you don’t want to keep an opened packet, one biscuit per wrapper is ideal for your snack break. According to the manufacturer, Lotus Biscoff offers a foodservice box containing 300 individually wrapped biscuits. Just consider whether you have room to store such a large quantity at home.
If you want to take a sealed packet with you
A twin pack could be handy for your bag, desk or night shift if you’re happy to have two biscuits at a time. Jumbo lists Lotus Biscoff XL 2P x 10 as containing ten packets, each with two biscuits.
If you prefer to portion out a larger pack yourself
A large pack is a good choice if you want to decide how many biscuits to have each time and reseal the rest afterwards. AH and Jumbo offer 600 g packs of bakery speculoos biscuits and provide storage advice for once they’re opened.
What should you look for when choosing?
First, check how many biscuits are in each inner packet. Then decide whether the total quantity and storage requirements after opening suit your snacking habits.

What to check before buying |
Best suited to |
| One biscuit per wrapper |
Check the number of biscuits per wrapper: the Lotus Biscoff Food Professionals box contains 300 individually wrapped biscuits. |
If I want just one biscuit late at night, I don’t want to have another one left over in an opened packet. For around 45% of consumers, having an individually wrapped portion is the top priority. |
| Sealed twin pack |
Check how many inner packets there are and how many biscuits each contains. According to Jumbo, Lotus Biscoff XL 2P x 10 contains ten packets, each with two biscuits. |
A compact, sealed packet matters more to me than having one biscuit per wrapper, as long as I’m happy with two biscuits at a time. This twin-pack option is the top priority for around 33% of consumers. |
| Quantity and storage |
Compare the total quantity and check how to store the biscuits once opened. AH and Jumbo recommend keeping their 600 g large packs in a tightly sealed tin. |
I’d rather take my own portion from a larger pack and seal the rest afterwards. Around 22% of consumers say they prefer a larger pack that lets them control their own portions. |
Common mistakes
-
Assuming ‘packed per packet’ means ‘one biscuit per packet’
A sealed packet may contain more than one biscuit. According to Jumbo, Lotus Biscoff XL 2P x 10 contains two biscuits in each packet. Once you open it, the remaining biscuit is no longer individually wrapped.
If having exactly one biscuit at a time matters to you, check how many biscuits are in each inner packet.
-
Relying on a vegan label to check for allergens
A vegan label doesn’t mean a biscuit is free from wheat or soya. The Lotus Biscoff pack of 300 individually wrapped biscuits described by Lotus contains both ingredients.
If you have an allergy, check the ingredients and allergen information on the pack you’re buying.
-
Looking only at the size of the pack
A box of 300 biscuits gives you individually wrapped portions, but it also takes up a lot of storage space. A large pack of bakery speculoos biscuits doesn’t provide pre-sealed snack portions.
First, choose between one biscuit per wrapper, two per packet or portioning them out yourself. Then consider how much you want to store and how you’ll seal an opened pack.
