If you’re having just a few spritz biscuits while watching an Oranje match, first decide which flavour you fancy, then check the number of biscuits or servings listed per pack. Albert Heijn lists around 9 servings for Verkade Nobo Sprits Original; Jumbo lists around 15 servings for its dark chocolate spritz biscuits. For butter spritz biscuits, you can compare the packs from Albert Heijn, PLUS and ALDI by biscuit count, ingredients and allergens. A stated serving is not the same as an individually wrapped biscuit.
If you want to take one or a few biscuits from a pack during the match, the serving information can help you compare. Albert Heijn lists around 9 servings per pack for Verkade Nobo Sprits Original; Jumbo lists around 15 servings for its dark chocolate spritz biscuits. These figures don’t mean the biscuits are individually wrapped.
If you’re specifically after chocolate with your spritz biscuit, you could try Jumbo’s dark chocolate version, for example. Check the ingredients and allergens on the packaging for each variant.
If butter is your main flavour preference, compare the ingredients and biscuit count for the variants from Albert Heijn, PLUS and ALDI. The stated butter percentage alone doesn’t tell you how big each biscuit is.
Before settling in to watch on your own, decide whether quantity, chocolate or butter is your priority. Then check the packaging and whether the product you want is available.
| What to consider | What to check | Who it matters to |
|---|---|---|
| Amount per sitting | Compare the number of biscuits, the stated serving size and any inner packaging. | When I’m watching on my own, I want to be able to have a few biscuits without treating the whole pack as one serving. For around 33% of consumers, quantity comes first. |
| Chocolate flavour | Check the type of chocolate and the allergens; Jumbo lists 18% dark chocolate in its 200 g variant. | I’d rather have chocolate spritz biscuits than a plain version, even if that means accepting a different pack size. Chocolate is the top preference for around 25% of consumers. |
| Butter | Compare the stated butter percentage and the number of biscuits; Albert Heijn lists 29% butter and 10 biscuits, while PLUS lists 30% butter. | The butter variant is the deciding factor for me, while chocolate matters less. This is the top preference for around 25% of consumers. |
| Availability | Check the current range in store or with the delivery service, and note the pack size. | I want to be able to buy a pack for this match, then choose between flavours. Immediate availability is the main priority for around 17% of consumers. |
A pack with several stated servings doesn’t necessarily contain individually wrapped biscuits. That matters if you want to take a biscuit with you or store them without leaving the pack open.
Compare the number of biscuits and check the packaging to see whether they’re individually wrapped.
Ingredients and allergens vary between spritz biscuit variants. The products described contain wheat and milk; for some variants, egg, soya or possible traces of nuts or sesame may also be relevant.
Before eating, check the current ingredients and allergen information on the packaging, even if you’ve bought the product before.
A product page doesn’t automatically mean the pack will be available for your match. Lidl lists its butter spritz biscuits as an in-store product; the range of other variants may change too.
Check stock and the delivery or collection options you need shortly before buying.
If you only have a few biscuits, the rest of the pack will be left for another occasion.
The Voedingscentrum recommends storing biscuits in a cool, dry, dark place in a well-sealed container. Choose a smaller pack if you don’t want to store the rest.

No. A serving size tells you how much is in a pack, not how the biscuits are individually wrapped. Albert Heijn and Jumbo list several servings per pack for the spritz biscuits mentioned; check the inner packaging if you need individually wrapped biscuits.
Check the label for the specific variant. The products described include wheat and milk; depending on the product, egg, soya and possible traces of nuts or sesame may also be relevant. The Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority explains that allergens must be listed on the label of prepacked foods.
Store the biscuits in a cool, dry, dark place in a well-sealed container, as the Voedingscentrum recommends. Also follow the storage and use-by information on the packaging of your spritz biscuits.
As well as the flavour you want, check the number of biscuits or servings, the pack size and current availability. A large pack could work if you want to store the rest; if not, compare smaller packs first.
