Want to grab one stroopwafel during your journey without opening a second waffle from the same inner pack? Choose a pack that explicitly states that each waffle is individually wrapped. If you want two waffles per break, Kanjers Original, which is packed in pairs, is another option. However, it does not meet the strict requirement of one sealed waffle per portion. For your chosen variety, check the current allergen information on the label too.
Which pack is right for you?
Solo travellers looking for a single snack
If you want to take one waffle and keep the rest sealed, look for a clear statement that they are individually wrapped. A label such as 36 x 1 does not, on its own, confirm that each waffle has its own wrapper.
Travellers who want to share
If there are two of you, or you want two waffles during one break, a twin pack could be a good fit. Joybuy describes Kanjers Original, with eight stroopwafels, as packed in pairs, so each pack you open contains two waffles.
Travellers checking allergens
If you’re buying for someone with an allergy, read the label on the exact variety you’re taking with you. Wheat, milk and soya are listed for the Kanjers varieties described here; check for any ‘may contain’ warnings too.
What should you look for when choosing?
First, decide how many waffles you want in each sealed portion. Then check the label on your chosen variety, especially if you or someone you’re travelling with needs to know about allergens.

Who it matters to |
| One waffle per pack |
Look for a clear statement on the pack that each waffle is individually wrapped; a pack count alone isn’t enough. |
If you only want to grab one waffle, an inner pack containing two isn’t much use. For around 50% of consumers, having one individually sealed portion is the top priority. |
| Portions to share |
Check how many waffles are in each inner pack and whether a mini pack contains individual portions. |
If I’m travelling with someone, a twin pack might suit our break better than individual waffles; around 30% of consumers prioritise a portion or pack that can be shared. |
| Ingredients and allergens |
Read the current label for the exact variety, including any warnings about possible traces. |
If I’m buying stroopwafels for someone who needs to avoid certain ingredients, the label matters more than the pack size. This is the top priority for around 20% of consumers. |
Common mistakes
-
Assuming eight waffles means eight individual portions
The total number of waffles doesn’t tell you how many are in each inner pack. Joybuy describes Kanjers Original, with eight waffles, as packed in pairs.
Before buying, check both the number of waffles and the information about the inner pack.
-
Relying on an old product listing
Jumbo’s listings for Daelmans 36 x 1 and Jumbo Stroopwafel 8 x 29 g state that these products are no longer available online.
Before you travel, check which pack you can actually buy, then read the information on that pack.
-
Assuming all products from a brand have the same allergens
Ingredients and warnings apply to a specific variety and can change. So a previous purchase is no substitute for checking the label on the pack you’re choosing now.
Before buying, read the ingredients and allergen information on that exact pack.
Brands to consider
Daelmans
Jumbo lists a Daelmans pack of 36 x 39 g; Albert Heijn also lists a 4-pack labelled 4 x 2.
- The 36 x 1 label is a useful clue if you’re looking for a portion of one waffle.
- Jumbo states that this product is no longer available online. The label also doesn’t confirm that each waffle has its own wrapper.
Kanjers
For the Original variety described here, Jumbo and Joybuy list packs containing two stroopwafels per portion.
- The portion size is clear if you want to take two waffles at a time or share them.
- A twin pack isn’t the same as an individually wrapped waffle. Check the current allergen information for your chosen variety too.
Jumbo
Jumbo has a listing for its own-brand Stroopwafel 8 x 29 g.
- The listing gives the number of units and the weight per unit.
- Jumbo states that the product is no longer available online; 8 x 29 g also doesn’t prove that each waffle is individually wrapped.
BISCOTTO
ALDI Netherlands lists BISCOTTO mini stroopwafels in a 300 g pack.
- The mini size offers a different portion option from a regular stroopwafel.
- Check the inner packaging if each mini needs to be individually sealed.
Sondey
Lidl Netherlands lists Sondey mini butter stroopwafels: around 37 waffles in a 316 g pack.
- The stated quantity is useful if you want to share several smaller waffles.
- Don’t assume they’re individually wrapped without checking the pack.

Frequently asked questions
Can I take stroopwafels in my hand luggage from Schiphol?
Yes. Schiphol says you can take food in your hand luggage. Different rules apply to liquid or spreadable food; follow the security staff’s instructions at the checkpoint.
Does the 100 ml liquids rule apply to stroopwafels?
A regular stroopwafel isn’t a liquid or spreadable food. Schiphol distinguishes these products from food that is subject to the liquids rules; check any other snacks with liquid or spreadable fillings separately.
How can I tell if a stroopwafel is individually wrapped?
Look for a clear statement on the current pack that the waffles are individually wrapped. A total of eight pieces doesn’t tell you how many inner packs there are: Joybuy describes Kanjers Original, with eight pieces, as packed in pairs.
Which allergens should I check for in these stroopwafels?
Always check the label for the exact variety. Wheat, milk and soya are listed for the Kanjers varieties described here; Jumbo’s listing for Kanjers Original 4 x 2 pieces also warns of possible traces of nuts. Don’t rely on the label from a different pack.
