If you want a sealed portion to take with you
An individually wrapped option can be handy in your bag or desk drawer. Just check that the portion suits your plans: the Daelmans Duo listed by PLUS contains two stroopwafels per wrapper.
Which pack is right for you?
If you’re stocking up at home
If you’re buying stroopwafels for several snack breaks, the number of waffles and the net weight matter more than the look of the packaging. ALDI, for example, lists a pack of 12 weighing 378 g.
If you need to avoid gluten
Look for a product explicitly labelled gluten-free, and check the other allergens listed on the packaging too. According to its product information, PLUS’s gluten-free stroopwafels contain egg and lupin.
What should you look for when choosing?
First decide whether a sealed portion, allergen information or enough for several snack breaks is your main priority. Then compare the number of waffles and the packaging information for the specific product.
| What to consider | What to check before buying | Who should pay particular attention? |
|---|---|---|
| Sealed portion | Check whether the waffles are individually wrapped and how many each wrapper contains.

An estimated 30% of consumers give this check top priority. |
| Stocking up at home | Compare the number of waffles and the net weight, and check how to store the pack once opened. | For several snack breaks at home, I want to know how many waffles are in the pack and how to store the rest.

Common mistakes
-
Assuming one wrapper means one waffle
The Daelmans Duo listed by PLUS is one sealed wrapper containing two stroopwafels. It’s a different format from a single individually wrapped waffle.
Check both the number of wrappers and the number of waffles in each one before choosing.
-
Relying on the product name alone for allergen information
According to PLUS, Daelmans Duo contains wheat, soya and milk. A gluten-free option can contain other allergens too: PLUS lists egg and lupin in its gluten-free stroopwafels.
Check the full allergen information on the packaging of your chosen product every time you buy it.
-
Treating an old product listing as a current option
Jumbo states that its 36 × 1 piece Daelmans pack is no longer available in its online range. So that listing doesn’t mean you can order this format now.
Check your retailer’s current range and read the packaging of the product you actually buy.
Brands and retailers to consider
Daelmans
PLUS lists Daelmans Stroopwafels Duo as a 78 g wrapper containing two waffles.

Lidl / Sondey
Lidl lists Sondey Margarine stroopwafels, 378 g, as an in-store product.

PLUS lists both the Daelmans Duo wrapper and gluten-free stroopwafels.
- Duo has two waffles in one sealed wrapper, while the other option is explicitly labelled gluten-free.

Stroopwafels for individual portions or stocking up
These Kanjers packs contain several stroopwafels. If you’re choosing a snack to take with you, check how the waffles are divided up inside the pack. The total number of pieces doesn’t tell you how many waffles are in each sealed portion.

What should I check if I need to avoid gluten or other allergens?

Are gluten-free stroopwafels free from other allergens too?
No. According to the product information, the gluten-free stroopwafels listed by PLUS contain egg and lupin. So check the full allergen information even when choosing a gluten-free option.
How should I store stroopwafels bought to keep in stock?
Follow the storage instructions on the pack you’ve chosen. PLUS says its Daelmans Duo and gluten-free stroopwafels should be stored in a cool, dry, dark place.
