How we got 1.5 ShowHide
Reviewed 4 times · Methodology v3.1 (updated 8 Oct 2026) — what changed
This chocolate candy is primarily a source of added sugar, which is listed as the first ingredient and is a dominant nutritional concern. The 'Fractionated Fat' is an industrially modified fat, and without further specification, its health implications are less clear, though it contributes to the overall fat content. This product is best consumed in moderation due to its high sugar content, especially for children.

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.
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 →Decode Label Analysis
The product contains 'Fractionated Fat', an industrially modified fat. Without further specification, its exact health implications are unclear, but it contributes to the overall fat content.
The terms 'Emulsifiers' and 'Flavours' are not specifically disclosed, which reduces transparency and may be a concern for individuals with sensitivities or those who prefer to know all ingredients.
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.
Roasted Almonds are listed as the second ingredient, confirming their presence.
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.
