For a cake or baking project, match the quantity of spritz biscuits to your recipe. For example, Verkade uses 200 g of Nobo Sprits Original for a crumble. Smaller biscuits may be easier to pack in lunchboxes, but a mini size or multi-pack offer doesn’t mean the biscuits are individually wrapped. Check the contents, ingredients and instructions on the current pack for each variant.
If you need spritz biscuits for crumbs or decoration, first check how many grams the recipe calls for. Verkade uses 200 g of Nobo Sprits Original in a crumble recipe; the amount you need for another baking project may be different.
Smaller biscuits can make it easier to share them out. Jumbo lists Sprits Staafjes Mini in a 125 g pack, but check separately whether the product you choose is individually wrapped.
Check the ingredients and allergen information for the specific variant on the pack. Verkade lists wheat and milk ingredients for Nobo Sprits Original; ingredients may differ in other variants.
Choose this if: you can match one pack to the amount needed for a baking recipe or a small sharing occasion.
Bear in mind: once opened, any leftover biscuits should be stored in an airtight container.
Choose this if: smaller biscuits would be more practical for a lunchbox or for handing out.
Bear in mind: ‘mini’ describes the size of the biscuits, not necessarily how they’re packaged.
Choose this if: you really need several packs for different baking or sharing occasions.
Bear in mind: a supermarket offer on separate packs doesn’t mean the biscuits are individually wrapped.
Choose this if: you need a large quantity of spritz biscuits for professional use or a big event.
Bear in mind: Van Strien Banketbakkers lists a case containing four trays of 750 g; that’s different from a consumer pack with lunchbox portions.
If you’re choosing spritz biscuits for baking, sharing or taking with you, quantity, ease of handling and the information on the label are all separate factors to consider.
| What to consider | What to check before buying | Who it matters to |
|---|---|---|
| Quantity | Compare the net weight with the number of grams in your recipe, and think about whether you’ll use any leftovers. | For a crumb topping, I want to buy enough biscuits without having lots left over. Getting the quantity right is a priority for around 40% of consumers. |
| Lunchbox convenience | Check the biscuit size and look on the pack to see whether they’re individually wrapped. | If I want to pack biscuits for someone or hand them out, I want them to be easy to share. Around 30% of consumers prioritise this convenience. |
| Ingredients and allergens | Read the ingredients, allergen information and any warnings on the current pack of the variant you’ve chosen. | If someone needs to avoid certain ingredients, I want to know exactly what’s in these spritz biscuits. Checking the label is the main concern for around 30% of consumers. |
Jumbo describes its Kies & Mix offer as a combination of separate biscuit packs. This doesn’t confirm that the biscuits inside those packs are individually wrapped.
If you want to pack biscuits as individual portions, check the packaging for individually wrapped biscuits. Only buy several packs if you’re going to use them.
‘Mini’ refers to the size of the biscuits, not their ingredients or allergens. These may also differ between flavours.
Read the ingredients and allergen information on the current pack of the exact variant you’re buying.
A bulk pack may leave you with lots of biscuits after a small baking project. According to the Voedingscentrum, biscuits can lose quality if they’re stored incorrectly.
Work out how many grams you need in advance. Store any leftover biscuits in a cool, dry, dark place in an airtight container, and follow the storage advice on the pack.
