If you’re choosing one syrup waffle for yourself, check how many waffles are in the pack and the portion size shown on the label. According to Albert Heijn, a Daelmans twin pack contains two waffles, each with a stated portion size of 39 g. With a chocolate bar containing pieces of syrup waffle, you’ll need to decide how much to break off from the larger bar.
A clearly defined portion per waffle can help if you don’t want to eat the whole pack late at night. Albert Heijn lists one 39 g waffle as a portion for the Daelmans twin pack, although there are two waffles in the pack.
A chocolate bar is a different product from a classic syrup waffle. If you want to break off a piece, check the portions on the label: Albert Heijn lists fifteen 10 g portions for the 150 g Delicata bar.
A larger pack is handy if you want to stock up at home, but it won’t automatically limit you to one late-night snack. For example, ALDI Nederland lists twelve Heerlijck Banket syrup waffles per pack; Jumbo lists Kanjers in four twin packs.
First decide whether you want one classic waffle or a piece of chocolate bar. Then check how many are in the pack and what the nutritional information means for the amount you’ve chosen.
| What to consider | Check before buying | Who should pay particular attention? |
|---|---|---|
| Portion per item | Check the number of items per pack and the stated portion size. A twin pack still contains two waffles. | If I fancy something sweet late at night, I want to be able to choose one waffle in advance, rather than treating the whole pack as one portion. For around 33% of consumers, having a clearly defined portion comes first. |
| Classic syrup waffle | Read the product description and check that you’re buying a waffle with syrup filling, rather than a chocolate bar with pieces of waffle. | I’m looking specifically for the combination of waffle and syrup filling; a bar with pieces in it is a different snack for me. That’s the most important consideration for around 25% of consumers. |
| Chocolate bar | Check the weight, the number of portions per bar and the nutritional information per 100 g and for the amount you’ve chosen. | If I mainly want chocolate with pieces of syrup waffle, I don’t mind breaking off a piece myself. This preference matters most to around 25% of consumers. |
| Stocking up and packaging | Check the number of individual packs and confirm current availability at the shop where you’re buying. | I want to keep waffles for several evenings, so I’m happy to buy a larger pack. For around 17% of consumers, this need takes priority over a pack for a single snack occasion. |
Albert Heijn lists fifteen 10 g portions for the 150 g Delicata syrup-waffle bar. The weight of the whole bar is therefore different from the stated portion size.
Check the number of portions and, if you like, break off the amount you’ve chosen for this snack occasion in advance.
