Which pack is right for you?

For shoppers who want to offer a single snack

If you want customers to be able to take one waffle without opening a second, check whether each waffle is individually wrapped. The number of waffles in a box doesn’t always tell you how many are in each individual wrapper.

For shoppers putting together a coffee break

If you’re creating a coffee-themed shelf, compare the recipe and size of the exact variant. PLUS lists its bag of 10 Daelmans syrup waffles as having a 50% syrup filling. This product specification doesn’t tell you whether the waffles are individually wrapped or indicate the quality of other variants.

For shoppers checking ingredients and allergens

If you’re buying for someone else, it’s important to check the label on the pack you’ve chosen. The Albert Heijn and PLUS product pages reviewed list ingredients including wheat, milk and soya for the respective variants. Don’t assume the same applies to other syrup waffles.

What should you look for?

First, decide whether you need one waffle per wrapper. Then check the recipe and label on the pack you actually intend to buy.

One waffle per wrapper

When to choose it: for serving individual portions, with one waffle clearly defined as a single snack.

Bear in mind: Jumbo listed a Daelmans pack of 36 × 1 piece at 39 g, but it is no longer in its online range. If you’re choosing a product currently available, check the individual wrapper too.

Two waffles per wrapper

When to choose it: for a duo or sharing occasion when two waffles at once are suitable.

Bear in mind: the Daelmans jumbo duo described by Albert Heijn contains two waffles per wrapper and is not in its range. It isn’t a single-serve bar.

Mini syrup waffles

When to choose them: for smaller bites or a pack to share.

Bear in mind: a bag of minis doesn’t confirm that each waffle is individually wrapped. Lidl lists around 37 Sondey minis per 316 g pack.

What to consider What to check Who it matters to
Waffles per wrapper Check how many waffles are in each individual wrapper, not just the total on the outer pack. If I want to give customers one snack, I don’t want to open a duo by mistake. For around 42% of consumers, having an individual portion is the priority.
Recipe and serving occasion Compare the ingredients and stated filling of the same variant, and consider which size suits the occasion. For a coffee break, I want to choose based on the actual recipe, without assuming that a larger size tastes better. This is the most important consideration for around 33% of consumers.
Label and allergens Read the ingredients, allergen information, net weight, best-before date and storage instructions on the pack you’ve chosen. If I’m buying for someone with a food allergy or specific dietary needs, I need to be able to check the exact pack. Around 25% of consumers make checking the label their priority.

Common mistakes

  • Presenting a duo or bag of minis as a single-serve bar

    Two large waffles in one wrapper or several minis in a bag aren’t the same as one individually wrapped waffle. That difference matters when customers need to be able to take exactly one snack.

    Check how many waffles there are per individual wrapper before choosing a pack for single-serve portions.

  • Treating an old product listing as proof of current availability

    Jumbo no longer lists the Daelmans pack of 36 × 1 piece in its online range; Albert Heijn says the same about the Daelmans jumbo duo described. So their pack details don’t confirm that you can currently buy these products through those retailers.

    Check current availability and pack size with the retailer you plan to order from.

  • Assuming another variant has the same label

    Ingredients and allergens can vary between variants. The syrup waffles described by Albert Heijn and PLUS list ingredients including wheat, milk and soya; this isn’t a complete allergen list for all syrup waffles.

    If you’re buying for someone with an allergy or intolerance, check the information on the exact pack you’ve chosen.

Brands and retailers to consider

Daelmans

The variants described include a bag of 10 syrup waffles, a jumbo duo and a previously listed pack of 36 × 1 piece.

  • PLUS lists the 10-piece bag as having a 50% syrup filling.
  • Jumbo’s listing for 36 × 1 piece doesn’t confirm current online availability.

Albert Heijn

Retailer with product information about a Daelmans caramel jumbo duo.

  • The variant described contains two waffles per wrapper.
  • Albert Heijn lists this variant as no longer in its range.

Jumbo

Retailer that listed a Daelmans pack of 36 × 1 piece at 39 g.

  • The listed pack size is worth noting if you’re looking into serving individual portions.
  • Jumbo says the item is no longer in its online range.

Sondey (Lidl)

Mini butter syrup waffles for anyone looking for a smaller size.

  • Lidl lists around 37 minis in a 316 g pack.
  • The number of minis per pack doesn’t tell you whether each one has its own wrapper.

Biscotto / Heerlijck Banket (ALDI)

Mini syrup waffles from two different brands listed by ALDI.

  • ALDI lists Biscotto mini syrup waffles and describes the Heerlijck Banket mini variant as snack-sized.
  • Check whether the minis are individually wrapped for each product you’re considering.

PLUS

Retailer with product information about Daelmans syrup waffles and PLUS caramel syrup waffles, both sold in bags of 10.

  • The PLUS variant’s product information lists wheat, milk and soya as allergens.
  • A bag of 10 doesn’t by itself confirm how many waffles are in each individual wrapper.

If you’re serving one waffle at a time, the individual wrapping is especially important: check whether each waffle has its own wrapper. Also read the current label for ingredients and allergens, and check that the size of each waffle suits the portion you have in mind.

Frequently asked questions

Is a duo of syrup waffles the same as one individually wrapped waffle?

No. The Daelmans jumbo duo described by Albert Heijn has two waffles per wrapper. If you want to offer exactly one waffle, check that your chosen variant has one waffle per individual wrapper.

Which allergens should I check in syrup waffles?

Check the allergen information on the pack of the exact variant. The products described by Albert Heijn and PLUS list ingredients including wheat, milk and soya, but other variants may differ. According to the Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority, allergen information for prepacked products must appear on the label.

How should I store syrup waffles before serving?

Follow the storage instructions on the pack you buy. The product information described for Daelmans and PLUS syrup waffles says to store them in a cool, dry place; for other variants, follow the instructions on the product’s own label.
