How we got 1.5 ShowHide
Reviewed 3 times · Methodology v3.1 (updated 8 Oct 2026) — what changed
This chocolate candy is primarily a source of sugar and saturated fat, with a significant portion coming from palmolein and palm oil. While it offers a sweet treat, the high saturated fat content is a cardiovascular concern, and the presence of undisclosed 'Flavours' and 'Natural Flavoring Substances' raises transparency issues for those with sensitivities. It is best consumed in moderation, especially by individuals monitoring their fat and sugar intake.

What’s favorable
- Cocoa Solids
High in sugar and saturated fat; contains undisclosed flavors.
This chocolate candy is high in both sugar and saturated fat, primarily from palm-derived oils, which can be a concern for heart health. The product also lists 'Flavours' and 'Natural Flavoring Substances' without specific disclosure, which may be an issue for individuals with sensitivities or allergies to certain flavor compounds. It is a highly processed food best enjoyed sparingly.
Consider this product carefully if you are
- Looking for a lower-sugar option — Added sugar is 38.4 g per 100 g.
- Avoiding certain additives or colours — Palmolein is declared.
Declared allergens: Milk and Gluten
Relevant if you have any of these allergies or intolerances.
Based on the declared ingredient list. This is a risk only to people with the allergy, not a general-population safety issue, so it does not lower the safety score.

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.
Palm Oil
Palm oil is very high in saturated fatty acids (~50%), which raise LDL cholesterol and increase cardiovascular risk with regular high consumption. Refined palm oil can also carry processing contaminants (glycidyl esters and 3-MCPD esters), which EFSA assessed in 2016.
Regulatory & scientific authority Source: WHO; Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health; EFSA CONTAM opinion (2016)
Palm Oil: regulation, sources and other products →Fractionated Fat
Fractionation splits a fat into parts by melting point: a solid "stearin" fraction and a liquid "olein" one. It creates no trans fat. But the two fractions differ sharply — stearin is MORE saturated than the oil it came from, olein less — so an unqualified "fractionated fat" leaves both the source oil and the fraction undeclared, and with them the saturated-fat profile. In Indian packaged food it is most often palm-derived. Where the nutrition panel states saturated fat, that measured figure is the reliable number, not the ingredient name.
Regulatory & scientific authority Source: FSSAI Food Safety and Standards (Food Products Standards) Regulations — fats and oils; WHO saturated fat intake guideline (2023)
Fractionated 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
Palm Oil and Palmolein are high in saturated fat, which is a cardiovascular concern. EFSA CONTAM opinion (2016) also highlights concerns about glycidyl esters and 3-MCPD esters as refining contaminants in palm oil.
The product contains undisclosed 'Flavours' and 'Natural Flavoring Substances'. This lack of transparency can be an issue for individuals with sensitivities or allergies to specific flavor compounds.
Refined wheat flour contains gluten, making this product unsuitable for individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, as per FSSAI Labelling & Display Regulations 2020.
Fractionated Fat is an industrially modified fat whose specific composition is not disclosed, raising questions about its exact saturated fat profile and processing.
Claim check
Front-of-pack marketing claims checked against this product's actual ingredients and nutrition. "Can't verify" means the label does not provide enough information to check the claim — it is not the same as the claim being false.
This refers to a branding collaboration or theme, which cannot be verified from the ingredient list or nutrition information.
The ingredients list 'Centre Choco Filling (38%)' and 'Melted Chocolate (0.5%)', confirming the cookies are choc filled.

Trace amounts: some named ingredients appear in token quantities or low in the list. At these concentrations a meaningful benefit is unlikely, and their front-of-pack prominence may not reflect their level in the formulation.
In label order — normally largest quantity first. Select a row for the full write-up and sources.
A blend of refined vegetable oils, judged as a single concern — a high saturated-fat source — rather than one flag per oil. The individual oils are listed below and in "What the label actually shows".
These are major food allergens named on the ingredient list. They are a risk only to people allergic to them — not a general-population safety issue — so they do not lower the safety score. Anyone with the allergy should avoid this product, and check the pack’s own allergen statement.
The label declares each of these as a blend and then lists what is in it. The components appear in the groups above on their own merits, so the blend itself is shown here rather than counted a second time.

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.
