If you want to give each person a single individually wrapped biscuit, choose a pack that explicitly says each biscuit is individually wrapped: Lotus Bakeries describes a box of 300 individually wrapped Biscoff biscuits. For a smaller gesture with two biscuits per bag, Jumbo lists an XL pack containing ten twin-packs. For both options, check the label for ingredients and allergens before handing out the biscuits.
Which pack is right for you?
For handing out individual Valentine’s treats
If you want to give one individually wrapped biscuit with each card or at a coffee break, a pack with individually wrapped biscuits suits your plans. Lotus Bakeries describes a box of 300 individually wrapped Biscoff biscuits. Count your recipients in advance, as this is a large pack for sharing.
For giving a duo snack
If you want to give two biscuits together, a twin-pack could be a good option. The Lotus Biscoff XL pack listed by Jumbo contains ten bags, each with two biscuits, rather than twenty individually wrapped biscuits.
For shoppers who need to check allergens
If you need to take account of what the recipient can’t eat, read the label on your chosen pack before buying and handing out the biscuits. The Lotus Biscoff varieties discussed here list wheat and soya.
What should you look for when choosing?
First, decide whether each Valentine’s treat should contain one biscuit or a bag of two. Then compare the number of portions you need with the information on the label.
| What to consider |
What to check before buying |
Who it matters to |
| One biscuit per recipient |
Check whether each biscuit is individually wrapped and how many individual biscuits are in the box. |
If I want to tuck one individually wrapped biscuit in with each card, a bag I have to open to serve two people won’t work for me. Around 42% of consumers prioritise a single individually wrapped biscuit. |
| Small twin-portions |
Check both the number of bags and the number of biscuits in each one; the XL pack discussed here contains ten bags with two biscuits in each. |
For a small gesture, I’d rather give two biscuits together than just one. A twin-portion is the main preference for around 33% of consumers. |
| Ingredients and allergens |
Read the label on your chosen pack, including the ingredients, allergens and any ‘may contain’ information. |
If I don’t know what the recipient can eat, I want to be able to check the product information before handing anything out. Around 25% of consumers prioritise this check. |
Common mistakes
-
Assuming a twin-pack contains two individually wrapped biscuits
Jumbo describes the Lotus Biscoff XL pack as ten bags, each containing two biscuits. A bag like this won’t work if each card needs to come with exactly one individually wrapped biscuit.
Check both the number of bags and the number of biscuits in each. Choose a pack with individually wrapped biscuits if you want to give one to each recipient.
-
Buying a large sharing box for a small group
The box described by Lotus Bakeries contains 300 individually wrapped biscuits. That may be far more than you need for a few small treats.
Count your recipients before choosing a pack size, and decide whether you want to hand out individual biscuits or twin-portions.
-
Relying solely on an online product description
The Biscoff varieties discussed here list wheat and soya. If someone needs to avoid these ingredients, check the label on the specific pack you choose.
Before buying and handing out the biscuits, read the ingredients, allergens and any ‘may contain’ information on the pack.
Brands and retailers to consider
Lotus Biscoff
Lotus Bakeries describes both a box of 300 individually wrapped Biscoff biscuits and an XL option with two biscuits per bag.
- The 300-count box lets you give each recipient one individually wrapped biscuit.
- A box of 300 biscuits may be too large if you only need a few treats.
Jumbo
Jumbo has separate product pages for Lotus The Original Speculoos 300 Stuks and Lotus Biscoff XL 2P x 10.
- For the XL option, Jumbo lists ten bags, each containing two biscuits.
- For details on the wrapping used for the 300-count box, also check Lotus Bakeries’ product description, which explicitly states that the biscuits are individually wrapped.
Albert Heijn
Albert Heijn’s speculoos range includes products such as Lotus Biscoff Speculoos XL and a Biscoff snack pack.
- These pack formats give you a starting point for comparing portions.
- A name such as ‘snack pack’ doesn’t tell you how many biscuits are individually wrapped; check the specific product and its packaging for details.

Frequently asked questions
What should I choose if everyone is getting exactly one wrapped biscuit?
Choose a pack that explicitly says each biscuit is individually wrapped. Lotus Bakeries describes a box of 300 Biscoff biscuits; the XL option listed by Jumbo, on the other hand, contains two biscuits per bag.
How should I store the biscuits until Valentine’s Day?
Follow the storage instructions and date on the pack you’ve bought. For the sharing box discussed here, Lotus Bakeries recommends storing the biscuits in a dry place away from sources of heat.
Can I give these Biscoff biscuits to someone who needs to avoid wheat or soya?
The Lotus Biscoff varieties discussed here list wheat and soya, so don’t give them to someone without first checking whether the ingredients are suitable for them. Always read the label on the specific pack you’re going to hand out.
