Final score 1.5/10 · Concerning

Methodology v3.1 (updated 8 Oct 2026) — what changed

This chocolate candy product contains a significant amount of added sugar and refined vegetable oil, contributing to a high saturated fat content. A primary concern is the presence of Caramel Color, which can be an ammonia caramel (E150c or E150d). These types of caramel colors are associated with the formation of 4-methylimidazole (4-MEI), classified by IARC as Group 2B, 'possibly carcinogenic to humans'. While the label does not specify the concentration of 4-MEI, its presence warrants caution, especially for regular consumption. The product is also highly processed and contains artificial flavoring substances. Individuals with gluten sensitivity or celiac disease should avoid this product due to the presence of refined wheat flour. Despite the inclusion of skimmed milk powder and cocoa, the overall nutritional profile is dominated by sugar and fat, making it less ideal for frequent consumption, particularly for young children.

Infants under 1

Avoid

Toddlers & young children (1–5)

Limit

High added sugar content is a concern for young children, potentially contributing to dental issues and unhealthy dietary patterns.

Contains Roasted Almond in trace amounts, which could pose a choking hazard for very young children if not properly chewed, though the trace amount makes this less likely to be a primary concern.

Why the score is capped

Presence of artificial flavoring substances raises transparency concerns and may not be preferred by consumers seeking natural ingredients.

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.

Added Sugars

Sugars added to food, and the sugars in honey, syrups and fruit juice concentrates, are "free sugars". The WHO guideline recommends that they stay below 10% of total energy intake and suggests below 5% for additional benefit. Where the sugar sits in the ingredient list and how many grams the panel declares is what matters; this is information, because the nutrition score already prices the grams.

Regulatory & scientific authority Source: WHO, Guideline: Sugars intake for adults and children (2015)

Added Sugars: regulation, sources and other products →

Flavouring Substances

Indian rules classify added flavours as natural, nature-identical (chemically synthesised copies of natural compounds) or artificial, and require the class to be declared. The label names the class, not the compounds, so a reader cannot see which substances make up the blend, or whether it carries something they avoid. This is information about transparency, not a finding of harm.

Regulatory & scientific authority Source: FSS (Food Products Standards and Food Additives) Regulations 2011, flavours; FSS (Labelling and Display) Regulations 2020

Flavouring Substances: 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.

Decode Label Analysis

Contains Caramel Color, which if it is ammonia caramel (E150c or E150d), can generate 4-methylimidazole (4-MEI) during manufacture. IARC classifies 4-MEI as Group 2B (possibly carcinogenic to humans). The label does not state its concentration.

Contains gluten from refined wheat flour, making it unsuitable for individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.

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.
