Choose mini spritz biscuits if you want to serve small, individual biscuits and can confirm before buying that the mini size is available. If you’d rather know in advance how many portions you can serve, regular spritz biscuits with a stated pack count give you a clearer guide: Albert Heijn lists 10 biscuits weighing 20 grams each in its pack. Whichever you choose, check the label, especially if your guests need to keep an eye on allergens or nutritional information.
Mini spritz biscuits are a handy way to serve small, individual biscuits with coffee when friends come round. Just check that the exact mini size is available; Jumbo no longer lists its Sprits Staafjes Mini in its online range.
If you want to count out how many biscuits to serve in advance, a pack with a stated number can help. Albert Heijn lists 10 regular spritz biscuits weighing 20 grams each; these are not mini spritz biscuits.
If ingredients or nutritional information matter, check the pack of the variety you’ve chosen before serving. The spritz biscuit varieties reviewed differ in how they list wheat, milk and other allergens.
For your coffee table, first decide whether you want small, individual biscuits or a stated number of biscuits; then check the pack you’re actually planning to serve.

Jumbo says that Sprits Staafjes Mini 125 g is no longer part of its online range. So the product name alone doesn’t tell you whether you can buy this size now.
Check the exact product and size in store or on the current product page just before buying.
Listed ingredients and potential allergens vary by product. For example, the Jumbo mini spritz biscuits reviewed list wheat and milk and may contain almonds; Verkade’s milk chocolate variety also contains soya.
Read the ingredients and allergen information on the pack of the variety you’re serving, even if you’re familiar with the brand.
Verkade NoboSprits Melk has its own ingredients list and nutritional values. You can’t automatically apply the information for this variety to the original.
Compare the labels per 100 g or per stated portion if nutritional information affects your choice.

Regular AH spritz biscuits are a useful reference if you’d rather plan by the stated number of biscuits than choose a mini size.

Lidl lists butter spritz biscuits in a 400-gram pack as a regular in-store product.
Mini biscuits are smaller and individually sized, but that doesn’t tell you how many are in a pack or the nutritional value per portion. Check the pack for those details. Jumbo lists a pack weight of 125 grams for its Sprits Staafjes Mini, but the product is no longer part of its online range.
Check the allergen information for the spritz biscuits you’re actually serving. The Jumbo mini spritz biscuits reviewed contain wheat and milk and may contain almonds; the AH spritz biscuits reviewed contain wheat and milk and also list other potential allergens. The Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority says allergens must be clearly listed on the labels of prepacked foods.
Follow the storage advice on the pack of your spritz biscuits. Jumbo says to store its mini spritz biscuits in a cool, dry, dark place; for the regular spritz biscuits reviewed, Albert Heijn recommends storing them in a dry place at room temperature and closing the pack securely after use.
Use online information to help you prepare, but check the current packaging before serving. Albert Heijn warns that ingredients and allergen information can change, so check the details on the product you have at home.
