If you want a clearly defined portion with your coffee, an individually wrapped classic syrup waffle fits the bill. Makro Nederland lists a Daelmans option with one 39 g waffle per wrapper, but sells it in a box of 36. A chocolate bar with pieces of syrup waffle means portioning it yourself; a multipack suits several coffee breaks, not a purchase of just one waffle.
An individually wrapped syrup waffle gives you one clearly defined portion, without having to break off a piece of a chocolate bar. Check the pack size, though: the 39 g Daelmans waffle listed by Makro Nederland comes in a box of 36 individually wrapped waffles.
A bar with pieces of syrup waffle is a good fit if you want milk chocolate to take centre stage and prefer to break off pieces yourself. The bars we looked at from Albert Heijn and PLUS weigh 150 g and 140 g respectively; they aren’t individually wrapped classic syrup waffles.
A pack of plain syrup waffles is another option if you want to keep some at home or share them. Lidl and ALDI each list a pack of 12, weighing 480 g. Check whether individual wrapping matters to you: the number of waffles alone won’t tell you.
First decide whether you want one waffle, a chocolate bar to portion yourself or waffles for several occasions. Then compare the quantity and pack information for the type of product you’ve chosen.
| What to consider | What to check when buying | Who should consider this? |
|---|---|---|
| One individual portion | Check the number of waffles in each inner wrapper and the weight of each waffle. A box of individually wrapped waffles isn’t the same as buying one single waffle. | If you only want one waffle with your coffee, look for a pack that lets you take exactly one portion. For around 50% of consumers, having an individual portion would be the deciding factor. |
| Chocolate and portioning it yourself | Check whether it’s a chocolate bar with pieces of syrup waffle or a chocolate-coated waffle. Compare the nutritional information per 100 g with the amount you want to eat. | If you’re mainly looking for milk chocolate with pieces of syrup waffle, you can break a larger bar into portions. Around 30% of consumers would prioritise chocolate over a pre-portioned waffle. |
| Waffles for later | Compare the number of waffles, total weight and type of packaging. Check whether the pack suits the number of coffee breaks you’re buying for. | If you want waffles for future coffee breaks too, a pack with several waffles is more practical than a single portion. Having a supply ready would be the priority for around 20% of consumers. |
A 140 g or 150 g chocolate bar is a different type of product from the 39 g individually wrapped Daelmans syrup waffle listed by Makro Nederland. The word ‘bar’ doesn’t tell you how many individual waffles you’ll get.
Check the net weight, number of items and description of the inner packaging before choosing.
The Daelmans waffle we looked at lists wheat, milk and soya. Ingredients and allergens vary between chocolate bars with pieces of syrup waffle.
If you have an allergy, always check the current label, including any warnings. Don’t rely solely on an online title, image or previous purchase.
A pack of 12 waffles gives you several portions to enjoy over different coffee breaks. That’s not the same as buying one individually wrapped waffle.
First decide how many waffles you want to have at home, then check whether they’re individually wrapped inside the pack.
The Jumbo product page we checked no longer listed the syrup-waffle chocolate bar in its online range. PLUS showed its bar as unavailable at the store in question; Lidl listed the syrup waffles we looked at as an in-store product.
Check the range at the retailer you plan to order from or visit shortly before buying.
For anyone looking for one waffle per wrapper, the 39 g Daelmans syrup waffle listed by Makro Nederland is worth considering.
Albert Heijn lists a 150 g Delicata milk chocolate bar with pieces of syrup waffle and fudge.
Jumbo has listed a 150 g crunchy milk chocolate bar with syrup waffle and caramel.
PLUS lists a 140 g milk chocolate bar with pieces of syrup waffle and fudge, labelled Fairtrade Cocoa.
Lidl lists Sondey butter syrup waffles in a pack of 12, weighing 480 g.
ALDI lists Heerlijck Banket butter syrup waffles with caramel syrup in a pack of 12, weighing 480 g.
These packs contain several Kanjers syrup waffles. They’re a good option if you want to take a waffle from a pack for a coffee break, but they aren’t a purchase of just one individual waffle. The chocolate version is a waffle, not a chocolate bar with pieces of syrup waffle.

For anyone who wants to take a syrup waffle from a pack to enjoy with coffee. The outer pack contains 10, so this isn’t a purchase of one individual waffle.
Check the current packaging for the weight of each waffle, whether they’re individually wrapped and which allergens are listed.
No image available
For anyone considering a syrup waffle covered in milk chocolate and caramel with their coffee, instead of a classic version. The pack contains 4, not one individual waffle.
Check the packaging to see whether the waffles are individually wrapped, how much each waffle weighs and which allergens are listed.
No. The bars we looked at from Albert Heijn and PLUS are milk chocolate bars weighing 150 g and 140 g, with pieces of syrup waffle. If you’re looking for one clearly defined waffle to enjoy with your coffee, check the number of waffles in each inner wrapper and how many packs you’re buying in total.
Check the ingredients and allergens on the current packaging for the specific product. The Daelmans waffle we looked at lists wheat, milk and soya; ingredients and warnings may vary for chocolate bars with pieces of syrup waffle. If you have an allergy, don’t rely solely on the product name or an image.
Follow the storage instructions on the packaging. The Daelmans pack we looked at, along with the Delicata, PLUS and Jumbo bars, advises storing the products in a cool, dry place. After opening, check for any instructions for the inner packaging too.
