Decode Label Safety Score
How we got 1.5 ShowHide
Reviewed 3 times · Methodology v3.1 (updated 8 Oct 2026) — what changed
This biscuit product is a highly processed snack food with significant amounts of added sugar and interesterified vegetable fat, contributing to a high saturated fat content. While it contains coconut products, the overall nutritional profile is dominated by refined carbohydrates and fats, making it less suitable for regular consumption, especially for children due to the high sugar load. The use of 'Nature Identical Flavoring Substance' also indicates a lack of transparency regarding specific flavor compounds.

Ingredient Concerns safety database
Sources cited below may be Indian (FSSAI) or international (EU, US, WHO, IARC) — an international classification or law is evidence, not an Indian regulatory finding.
Interesterified Vegetable Fat
Interesterified fat is made by rearranging fatty acids on the glycerol backbone. It is the modern, trans-FREE replacement for partially hydrogenated oil, so — unlike vanaspati — it does not contribute industrial trans fat. It is, however, high in saturated fat, which raises LDL cholesterol and cardiovascular risk with regular high consumption, and some metabolic questions about this fat class remain under research. Judge it on its saturated-fat content, not as a trans-fat source.
Regulatory & scientific authority Source: FSSAI; WHO; EFSA opinions on interesterified fats
Interesterified Vegetable Fat: regulation, sources and other products →Wheat Flour
Wheat and wheat-derived ingredients contain gluten, which triggers an autoimmune response in people with celiac disease, causing intestinal damage. People with non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS) or wheat allergy must also avoid this ingredient. Labelled as a major allergen by FSSAI.
Regulatory & scientific authority Source: FSSAI Food Labelling Regulations; Celiac Disease Foundation
Wheat Flour: regulation, sources and other products →Decode Label Analysis
Interesterified Vegetable Fat is a modified vegetable fat high in saturated fat, which can contribute to cardiovascular health concerns.
Refined Wheat Flour contains gluten, which is an allergen for individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.

The product is described as 'Tropical COCONUT COOKIES' on the packaging, and the ingredients list coconut products, desiccated coconut, and coconut milk powder.
Read straight from the back-of-pack photo — quantities, sections and any disguised terms, so the small print can’t hide behind the marketing.

About this analysis: Based on declared label information and available evidence. Decode Label does not independently laboratory-test products, and a score is not a regulatory determination or medical advice.
Disclaimer: Safety scores are Decode Label-generated assessments based on publicly available regulatory data (FSSAI, WHO, EFSA, IARC) and peer-reviewed research. They are not a substitute for professional medical advice, and they are not a regulatory determination, a laboratory safety certification or a medical diagnosis. Ingredient safety can vary by individual health conditions, concentration, and usage context. Decode Label is an independent information service and scores every brand by the same rules. No brand pays for or influences its score. Our founder also founded the personal-care brand Botani Bestie (see our story); its products are scored exactly like everyone else's. Data limitations: This assessment is based on the information declared on the product label and the evidence sources above — Decode Label does not independently laboratory-test this product. Ingredient concentrations, sourcing and manufacturing can vary between batches and are not always disclosed. A finding that is not shown here means it was not identified from the available label information, not that it has been ruled out.
