For one Mother’s Day breakfast, a small mixed pack is generally more practical than a large box of portion sachets, provided you want a choice of flavours. A pre-measured 20 g sachet sounds about right for one slice of bread, but De Ruijter sells the portion sachets mentioned here in packs of 120; Kleintjes contains eight assorted portions. A standard pack makes more sense if you’ll use the sprinkles after breakfast too. These are all sprinkles, not chocolate bars.
Want to decorate a slice of bread or a small bowl of yoghurt without having lots left over? Look at both the amount in each portion and the number of portions in the pack. For example, Albert Heijn lists the plain De Ruijter portion sachets in a pack of 120, with 20 g in each sachet.
If you’d like to offer a choice of flavours, a mixed pack could be a good fit. According to Albert Heijn, De Ruijter Kleintjes contains eight portions. Check the ingredients for each variety if not everyone can or wants to eat the same things.
If you’re keeping an eye on sugars, fats or allergens, compare the nutritional information for the specific packs you’re considering. If you have an allergy or intolerance, check the label on the exact product you’ve bought before using it; allergens can vary between products.
First, think about how much of the sprinkles you’ll use after breakfast. Then choose between one flavour, a mix or pre-measured portions, and check the label if needed.
Best for: several separate breakfasts when you want to serve a pre-measured portion each time.
The trade-off: the plain De Ruijter portion sachets listed by Albert Heijn contain 20 g each, but are sold in packs of 120.
Best for: a small breakfast where a choice of varieties matters more than having one set flavour.
The trade-off: according to Albert Heijn, De Ruijter Kleintjes contains eight assorted portions; check the ingredients for each variety.
Best for: a household that will keep using the sprinkles after Mother’s Day.
The trade-off: you can decide how much to use each time, but you’ll probably have some sprinkles left after one breakfast.
| What to consider | What to check when buying | Who it matters to |
|---|---|---|
| Portion size and pack | Check both the weight per portion and the number of sachets in the pack. | A small breakfast portion without a large amount left over makes all the difference to me; around 33% of consumers put this format first. |
| Flavours and varieties | See which types of sprinkles or flakes the mix contains and whether all the portions are the same flavour. | I want to be able to offer more than one variety at a small brunch; around 25% of consumers prioritise this choice. |
| Ingredients and nutritional information | Check the allergens on the product you’re buying and compare nutritional values on the same basis, for example per 100 g. | I want to know which ingredients and nutritional values apply to my choice; for around 25% of consumers, this information is their main concern. |
| How much you’ll have left | Compare the total contents with how often you expect to use the sprinkles after Mother’s Day. | If I hardly ever use sprinkles after breakfast, I don’t want to keep a large pack; around 17% of consumers are most concerned about how much will be left. |
A sachet may be just right for one breakfast, while the pack you buy could be much larger. Albert Heijn lists the plain De Ruijter portions as 120 sachets of 20 g each.
Check how many sachets there are before you choose. If you’re only planning a small breakfast, a pack with fewer portions may suit you better.
The De Ruijter Chocoladehagel puur product described by Albert Heijn lists milk and soya, and states that it may contain lactose. So the word ‘plain’ is no substitute for checking the allergen information.
Before using the product, check the label on the exact variety you’ve bought, even if you’re familiar with another flavour or pack size from the same brand.
Albert Heijn lists Venz Mini’s in a pack of ten, but marks this product listing as discontinued. It can be a useful point of comparison, but don’t assume you’ll be able to buy it.
Before planning your breakfast, check that the pack you want is actually available from your chosen shop.
