De Ruijter Feestmuisjes are not a sugar-free option: according to product information from Albert Heijn and Jumbo, they contain 79 g of sugars per 100 g, and wheat and cereals containing gluten are listed as allergens. If you’re looking for aniseed sprinkles or another bread topping when you have a food allergy, check the current packaging for the allergen you need to avoid, including any warning about cross-contamination. The sugar-free label alone tells you nothing about allergens.
