If you want to share one pack of spritz biscuits with several passengers, start by checking the pack size: Lidl lists a 400 g pack, while ALDI lists packs weighing 300–400 g. For a small group or a short journey, a 150–200 g pack may be enough. Before buying, check availability and the label of the exact product, especially if anyone needs to avoid certain allergens.
Travelling with several people and don’t want to bring a separate pack for everyone? ALDI’s 300–400 g packs and Lidl’s 400 g pack give you more in one pack than the smaller options listed here. Check that your preferred product is available in store before setting off.
A 150–175 g pack may be enough for a short journey or a small group. Verkade Nobo Sprits Naturel is available in a 150 g pack, while PLUS lists 175 g Spritsen. Check the ingredients and allergens for your chosen product too.
If you’re buying spritz biscuits for someone who needs to avoid certain allergens, always check the label on the exact pack. The Verkade and PLUS products listed here include ingredients such as wheat and milk; egg and soya, as well as warnings about possible traces, vary by product.
Think about how many people will be sharing the pack. Then compare only the products whose labels suit your group.
| What to consider | What to check when buying | Who it matters to |
|---|---|---|
| Enough to share | Compare the net weight in grams and check whether the larger pack is available at your local store. Lidl lists 400 g; ALDI lists 300–400 g. | With several passengers, I want to take one pack that everyone can share, without needing to buy a second straight away. For around 44% of consumers, having enough for the group comes first. |
| Allergens and ingredients | Check the pack you buy for both allergens present and any warnings about possible traces. Verkade Nobo Sprits Naturel lists milk and wheat; the PLUS products listed here differ in ingredients including egg and soya. | If someone in the car needs to avoid an allergen, I want to know whether this particular product is suitable for them. Around 33% of consumers give checking the label top priority. |
| Flavour and a smaller pack | Choose between plain and other varieties, and compare the net weights: the smaller packs listed here contain 150 g, 175 g or 200 g. | For a short journey with a small group, I’m mainly looking for a flavour everyone likes, without bringing a large pack. For around 23% of consumers, this is the most important consideration. |
The Verkade and PLUS packs listed here contain 150–200 g. One pack of this size may not be enough for a larger group.
Count how many people want spritz biscuits and compare the amount in each pack. If you want one larger pack, check in-store availability of the 300–400 g options.
Verkade Nobo Sprits Naturel lists milk and wheat, PLUS Spritsen also lists egg, and PLUS Lunetta Spritsen includes ingredients such as soya. Warnings about possible traces can vary too.
Read the label on the exact product you’re buying, even if you’ve had a different variety from the same brand before.
Lidl lists its 400 g spritz biscuits as available in store only. ALDI also directs shoppers to stores for its 300–400 g pack; the listing doesn’t make clear which flavour corresponds to which weight.
Check your local store before setting off, and look at both the weight and variety on the pack.
Jumbo advises storing Verkade Nobo Sprits Naturel in a cool, dry place and keeping the pack sealed once opened.
Take a resealable container with you if you open the pack during the journey and don’t finish it straight away.
Verkade Nobo Sprits Naturel comes in a 150 g pack and is listed by Albert Heijn and Jumbo. It’s better suited to a small sharing occasion than to anyone looking to take one large pack.
PLUS lists 175 g Spritsen and 200 g Lunetta Spritsen. Choosing between these packs is about more than just the amount inside: the recipes differ too.
ALDI lists 175 g Biscotto butter spritz biscuits, as well as separate 300–400 g packs of plain butter spritz biscuits or chocolate-topped ones.
Lidl lists 400 g butter spritz biscuits as an in-store product. This pack size makes them a good option if your group wants to share one larger pack.
This 150 g milk chocolate variety is a good fit if you want a smaller pack to share during your journey. For a larger group, whether it’s enough will depend on how many people are eating.

A smaller pack to share if you’re looking for spritz biscuits coated in milk chocolate. The pack contains 150 g; if anyone in your group needs to avoid certain allergens, check the label on the pack you buy.
If you want to share one larger pack, the listed 400 g pack from Lidl and the 300–400 g pack from ALDI are good options to consider. Check your local store before setting off; for ALDI, also check the pack to see which weight goes with your chosen flavour.
If anyone needs to avoid certain allergens, check the label on the pack you actually buy too. According to the Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority, allergen information for pre-packed products is shown on the label. The spritz biscuit varieties listed here differ in the allergens they contain and the warnings they carry.
Store the pack in a cool, dry place and seal it again after opening. Jumbo gives this storage advice for Verkade Nobo Sprits Naturel; a sealable tin or bag is handy if you won’t eat all the biscuits at once.
