Which pack is right for you?

Host of a small coffee gathering

You want to put spritz biscuits on a plate and need more than a smaller pack offers. PLUS lists a 250 g pack of round butter spritz biscuits; check the packaging format if you specifically want a bag.

Organiser of a larger coffee break

You want to hand out biscuits individually rather than put out a plate. Jumbo lists a presentation box of 40 De Molen's Banket spritz biscuits; bol describes them as individually wrapped.

Checking ingredients before serving

You need to check which ingredients and allergens are relevant to your guests before serving. The listings for the products described vary in their mentions of milk, wheat, egg, nuts and soya, among other things, so check each pack you choose individually.

What should you look for when choosing?

250 g pack to share

Best for: a small group helping themselves to spritz biscuits from a plate.

Bear in mind: the PLUS pack doesn’t state how many biscuits it contains, so you can’t plan a set number per person.

Standard 175–200 g pack

Best for: a smaller coffee break or choosing a particular type of spritz biscuit.

Bear in mind: it contains less than the 250 g pack, and ingredients vary between types.

Box of individually wrapped portions

Best for: a larger group when you want to hand out biscuits individually.

Bear in mind: a presentation box of individual packs is different from a bag to put on the table.

What to consider What to check when buying Who it matters to
Quantity and portions Check the net weight, whether a biscuit count is given and whether the spritz biscuits are individually wrapped. If I’m putting out a plate for my guests, I want enough biscuits without having to guess how many are in the pack. For around 42% of consumers, a practical quantity that’s easy to share is the priority.
Leftovers after coffee Choose an amount you’ll use, and check how to store the pack once opened. For a small coffee break, I don’t want lots of spritz biscuits left over that I can’t store properly for later. Minimising leftovers is the main concern for around 33% of consumers.
Ingredients and allergens Check the ingredients, allergens and any ‘may contain’ information on the pack you’ve chosen. Before offering spritz biscuits to others, I want to know whether the type I’ve chosen is suitable for guests with allergies. For around 25% of consumers, checking this is the top priority.

Common mistakes

  • Mistaking a presentation box for a sharing bag

    Jumbo lists De Molen's Banket 40 × 38 g as a box of 40 spritz biscuits; bol describes them as individually wrapped. It’s a good choice for handing out, not for opening one bag to put out on a plate.

    Before buying, check whether you’re choosing a bag, flow wrap, tray or box of individual portions.

  • Assuming every spritz biscuit has the same allergen profile

    The products described include milk and wheat, among other ingredients, while mentions of egg, soya, nuts and possible traces vary between types. The product name alone won’t tell you what you can serve to your guests.

    Read the label on the pack you’re actually serving and take your guests’ allergies into account.

  • Forgetting to check storage instructions after opening

    If you have spritz biscuits left over, follow the storage advice on the pack to keep them for another coffee break.

    Reseal the pack after use and follow the label. Consider a smaller pack if you won’t use the rest or can’t store it appropriately.

Brands to consider

Verkade

Verkade offers NoboSprits Original and a milk chocolate variety for anyone looking for a particular flavour.

  • For NoboSprits Original, Verkade lists ingredients including wheat flour and milk derivatives.
  • Check the quantity and packaging format separately if you need spritz biscuits to share on a plate.

PLUS

PLUS lists 175 g and 200 g varieties of spritz biscuits, as well as 250 g round butter spritz biscuits for sharing over coffee.

  • The 250 g pack contains more than the standard packs mentioned.
  • The 250 g pack doesn’t state how many biscuits it contains; also check the ingredients of the variety you choose.

Jumbo

Jumbo lists both Lunetta Spritsen met Cacao en Glazuur in a 200 g pack and the De Molen's Banket 40 × 38 g presentation box.

  • These two packs make it easy to choose between a standard pack and individual portions for handing out.
  • The Lunetta product information lists gluten, milk, soya and wheat; check the allergens for the presentation box separately, too.

Albert Heijn

AH Spritsen is a 200 g pack that Albert Heijn lists as containing 10 portions of 20 g.

  • The stated portions can help you plan a small coffee break, without assuming how many each guest will have.
  • The product contains milk and wheat; check the current pack for ingredients and possible traces.

Biscotto

ALDI lists Biscotto Roomboterspritsen in a 175 g pack containing 12 biscuits.

  • The stated biscuit count is useful if you want to plan a limited quantity.
  • Check the ingredients and allergens on the pack before offering the spritz biscuits to others.

Frequently asked questions

Is 250 g of spritz biscuits enough for my coffee gathering?

You can’t tell from the weight alone: the size of the biscuits and how many you serve per person also matter. The PLUS pack mentioned contains 250 g, but doesn’t state how many biscuits are inside. If you want to hand them out individually, a box of 40 spritz biscuits gives you a clearer idea of how many people it will serve.

Should I check the allergens for each type of spritz biscuit separately?

Yes, check the label of the type you’re actually buying. The products described contain milk and wheat, while information about other allergens and possible traces varies. If any ingredients are relevant to your guests, a product page you looked at earlier is no substitute for checking the current pack.

How should I store spritz biscuits left over after coffee?

Follow the storage advice on the pack you’ve chosen and seal it properly after use. The product information described includes advice to store them in a dry place; also check the best-before date on the label before serving the biscuits again.
