Choose individually wrapped mini syrup waffles if you want to open a small portion at a time for a baking project. If you need full-sized waffles, a twin pack may be a better fit, provided you can use both waffles once the pack is open. In either case, check the size against your recipe, and read the ingredients, allergen information and storage advice on the packaging.
If you use pieces of syrup waffle as a small topping or decoration, a waffle per wrapper can be handy: you only open what you need at the time. Jumbo lists this type of packaging for its Mini Stroopwafeltjes, in a pack of 18 x 8 g.
Does your recipe call for whole syrup waffles, but you don’t want to open a larger pack straight away? A twin pack could work if you can use both waffles. PLUS describes Daelmans Duo as two waffles per wrapper; Jumbo lists Kanjers in a pack of 4 x 2.
If you’re baking for someone who needs to avoid certain ingredients, check the label on the specific variety you choose. Product information for Daelmans Duo and Kanjers, among others, lists wheat or gluten, milk and soya; details can vary by product.
First, decide how many waffles you want to open at a time. Then compare the size with your recipe and check the label information for the variety you’ve chosen.
| What to consider | What to check before buying | Who is this important for? |
|---|---|---|
| Opening them individually | Check how many waffles are in each inner pack. Jumbo explicitly states that its Mini Stroopwafeltjes, in a pack of 18 x 8 g, are individually wrapped. | If I only use a small portion on different baking days, I want to keep the rest sealed. For an estimated 40% of consumers, being able to open them individually is the most important factor. |
| Waffle and portion size | Compare the size and quantity you need with your recipe. PLUS lists Daelmans Duo as two waffles per wrapper; Jumbo lists Kanjers as 4 x 2. | If I’m making a recipe with whole waffles, I want to know whether I’ll use both waffles from a twin pack. The right size and quantity come first for around 30% of consumers. |
| Ingredients and allergens | Read the ingredients, allergen information and any warnings about possible traces on the packaging of the exact variety. | If I’m baking for someone who needs to avoid an ingredient, the current label determines which variety I can use. This is the first consideration for an estimated 30% of consumers. |
The size tells you nothing about the inner packaging. Jumbo confirms that its Mini Stroopwafeltjes are individually wrapped; ALDI’s listing for 300 g of BISCOTTO Mini stroopwafels doesn’t describe the inner packaging.
Check the label for the number of waffles per wrapper, or for an explicit statement that they are individually wrapped.
With Daelmans Duo and the Kanjers pack of 4 x 2, you open a unit containing two waffles each time. If your recipe only calls for one whole waffle, you’ll have one left over once the pack is open.
Choose a pack with the right number of waffles per unit for what you’ll use or serve that time.
Ingredients and allergens depend on the product. PLUS lists wheat or gluten, soya and milk for Daelmans Duo; information for another brand or size is no substitute for the label on your pack.
