Which size is right for you?

Lunchbox planners

If you’re adding spritz biscuits to a grocery order and only use small amounts, a standard pack is easier to plan for than a bulk box. PLUS lists a 175 g pack, while Jumbo offers a 200 g option. Think about how you’ll keep the pack dry after opening.

Sharing and hosting coffee breaks

For a family or guests, you could compare several standard packs with a larger pack. PLUS lists a 250 g tray of round butter spritz biscuits. Look beyond the quantity to the variety and how many biscuits you’ll actually use.

Bulk buyers with room to store them

A box of individually wrapped portions could work for a workplace or an event with lots of attendees. Jumbo lists De Molen's Banket Spritsen as 40 x 38 g. This is a different purchase from a standard consumer pack, and you’ll need space for the whole box.

What should you look for when choosing?

First, work out how many spritz biscuits you use at a time. Then compare the packaging and the exact flavour, so a larger pack doesn’t turn out to be a different product.

What to consider Check Who is this important for?
A manageable quantity Check the net weight and, if stated, the number of biscuits. PLUS lists a 175 g pack of spritz biscuits. If I only occasionally put biscuits in a lunchbox, I don’t want to open more than I can use. A manageable quantity would be the main consideration for around 40% of consumers.
Enough without unnecessary stock Compare the contents of similar varieties and consider how much you can store once the pack is open. For a small order, I want enough biscuits but not a supply that will be left sitting around. A suitable quantity would be the priority for around 30% of consumers.
Sharing or stocking up Check whether it’s one tray, several packs or individually wrapped portions in a box. PLUS lists a 250 g tray, while Jumbo also offers a box of 40 x 38 g. When several people are sharing, I want to know in advance whether the pack provides enough individual portions. Sharing or stocking up would be the first consideration for around 20% of consumers.
Flavour and label Check the exact variety, ingredients and allergen information on the packaging when it arrives. If I’m looking for a particular flavour or need to avoid certain ingredients, a similar product name shouldn’t lead me astray. This check would be the main concern for around 10% of consumers.

Common mistakes

  • Calling every large pack a multipack

    A 250 g tray, several separate packs and a box of 40 individual portions are different types of packaging. The total quantity doesn’t tell you how the biscuits are divided up.

    Check the net weight, the number of biscuits if stated, and the packaging before choosing a quantity for lunchboxes or a group.

  • Ordering more than you can use

    A larger pack isn’t automatically a better choice if you want to stock up: you’ll still need to be able to store and use the biscuits after opening.

    Choose a quantity that suits your plans and read the storage instructions for the variety you’ve chosen.

  • Assuming a flavoured variety is the same as plain spritz biscuits

    A variety with chocolate or icing won’t necessarily have the same ingredients as plain spritz biscuits. Verkade lists wheat, milk and soya among the ingredients in Nobo Sprits Milk Chocolate; Jumbo describes its Lunetta variety as spritz biscuits with a coating.

    If you choose a substitute, check the full variety name, ingredients and allergen information.

  • Relying only on online allergen information

    The Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority says allergen information for prepacked products should appear on the label. Albert Heijn notes that online product information can change.

    So check the label on the pack you receive, especially if you need to avoid an ingredient.
