Want to share syrup waffles between travel companions or snack breaks? Choose a pack with clearly divided portions, such as 4 × 2 waffles. A pack of 10 to 12 is a better fit if you’re buying for a group or several lunchboxes; just check how to store the waffles once opened. Before you set off, check the label for your chosen variety and, if you’re taking the waffles abroad, check your destination’s import rules too.
Want to share waffles between travel companions, lunchboxes or different snack breaks? Check both the number of waffles and how they’re portioned. For example, Jumbo lists a Kanjers pack of 4 × 2; with other packs, the number of waffles alone won’t tell you whether they’re individually wrapped.
If you’re buying for several people or lunchboxes, the key things to check are how many waffles are in the pack and how to store them once opened. ALDI lists a pack of 12, while PLUS lists one of 10.
If you need to consider allergens or dietary preferences, check the ingredients and warnings for the specific variety. Information about wheat, milk and soya, among other ingredients, varies by product, so don’t rely on the brand name alone.
First decide whether you need individually portioned waffles or simply enough to go round. Then check the packaging and label on the size you plan to take with you.
| What to consider | What to check when buying | Especially useful for |
|---|---|---|
| Sharing out portions | Check how many waffles there are and whether they’re packed in pairs or together. For a twin pack, check the exact packaging details on the wrapper. | When I’m packing for travel companions or different snack breaks, I don’t want to keep opening the same big bag. For around 42% of consumers, sharing out portions comes first. |
| Quantity for a group | Compare the number of waffles and the net weight; also check how the pack should be stored once opened. | When I’m packing several lunchboxes, I want to be able to check in advance that there’ll be enough waffles. Having enough pieces is the main concern for around 33% of consumers. |
| Ingredients and allergens | Read the ingredients, allergen warnings and storage instructions on the packaging for your chosen variety. | If a particular ingredient or allergen is a deciding factor for me, I check the exact variety before buying. For around 25% of consumers, checking the label is the top priority. |
A 4-pack, a pack of 8 and a bag of 12 differ in more than just quantity: the weight and packaging may vary too.
Compare the number of waffles, net weight and portioning before deciding what you want to share on the way.
Allergen information varies by product. For example, Daelmans chocolate syrup waffles at Albert Heijn also list nuts as a possible allergen.
Just before buying, check the ingredients and allergen information on the pack you’re actually taking with you.
A product range overview doesn’t tell you whether a pack is available at the store you’ve chosen. Lidl lists its 12-piece Sondey pack as available in store only.
Before setting off, check availability with the store or through the ordering channel you plan to use.
According to Schiphol, liquid and spreadable foods are subject to the rules for liquids in hand luggage. This is something to consider separately from solid syrup waffles.
If you’re taking a dip, spread or sauce, check Schiphol’s hand-luggage rules for it separately.
PLUS lists Daelmans Syrup Waffles in a bag of 10 and a Duopack with 8 waffles per wrapper. Albert Heijn lists a milk chocolate variety in a 4-pack.
Albert Heijn lists its AH Syrup Waffles in a 390 g pack, with 10 portions of 39 g.
Jumbo offers syrup waffles in different sizes, including a Kanjers pack of 4 × 2 and mini syrup waffles.
Lidl lists Sondey butter syrup waffles in a pack of 12, weighing 480 g, as well as mini butter syrup waffles.
ALDI lists syrup waffles in a pack of 12, weighing 378 g, and also offers 300 g packs of Biscotto Mini syrup waffles.
PLUS lists caramel syrup waffles in a bag of 10 and a caramel sea salt variety with 8 waffles.
These Kanjers packs are worth considering if you’re looking for syrup waffles to share with travel companions or enjoy over several snack breaks. The 8-piece pack is listed as being divided into pairs; if individually portioned waffles are important to you, check how the 10-piece pack is wrapped.

The pack of 10 syrup waffles is a good option if you’re buying for several travel companions or snack breaks.
If individually portioned waffles are important, check how the pack is divided before buying. Also read the label for ingredients and allergens.
According to Schiphol’s information, solid syrup waffles can generally be taken in hand luggage as food. Liquid or spreadable extras are subject to the rules for liquids, so check these separately if you’re taking a dip or spread.
Yes. Schiphol’s hand-luggage checks are separate from the import rules at your destination. Before you set off, check the rules there for bringing in food.
Always check the allergen information on the exact pack. The Jumbo and Daelmans varieties mentioned, for example, include wheat, milk and soya. The Daelmans milk chocolate 4-pack also states that the product may contain nuts. The Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority says allergens must be clearly shown on the label.
Follow the storage instructions on the packaging and seal any opened bag securely. If you only want to take some of the waffles, check in advance whether they’re individually portioned, or take a clean, resealable container with you.
