To contain, include, incorporate. To abstain really doesn't make sense in this context. That abstain meaning I think uses the "return to natural state" meaning of ent- (number 1). Think "unhold" in the sense of "cease to hold a position", that's "to abstain", the contain one... I'm not 100% but I think it's number 6: A thing is furnished such that the adjective becomes true. The cookie is enholden with chocolate chips.

karamellsirus is a misspelling, Karamellsirup should be obvious. crunshies, too, is a misspelt crunchies. Only one that shouldn't be recognisable is Regenbogenstreusel, rainbow sprinkles. Like on doughnuts.

The reflexive form "sich enthalten" means to abstain, without the reflexive pronoun it always means "to contain"

On retrospective that's pretty damn obvious.
