Decode Label Safety Score
How we got 4.5 ShowHide
Reviewed 4 times · Methodology v3.1 (updated 8 Oct 2026) — what changed
This biscuit product contains several undisclosed additive classes, including leavening agents, emulsifying agents, and permitted flavors, which limits transparency and makes a full safety assessment challenging. While it uses maltitol and FOS L95 as sugar substitutes, these can have a laxative effect if consumed in large quantities, particularly for children. The presence of refined wheat flour and edible vegetable oil also contributes to a less optimal nutritional profile. Consumers seeking full ingredient transparency or those sensitive to sugar alcohols should exercise caution.

Undisclosed Additives and Sugar Substitutes Raise Transparency and Digestive Concerns
This biscuit contains several types of additives that are not fully disclosed, making it difficult to know exactly what you're consuming. It also uses sugar substitutes like maltitol and FOS L95, which can cause digestive discomfort, such as bloating or a laxative effect, especially if eaten in large amounts. People with sensitive digestion or those who prefer full ingredient transparency should be cautious.
Declared allergens: Tree nuts and Gluten
People with these allergies should avoid it and check the pack’s own allergen statement.
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.
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
The product contains three or more undisclosed additive classes (Leavening Agents, Permitted Flavours, Emulsifying Agents), significantly reducing transparency and making a full safety assessment challenging. This triggers a mandatory score cap.
Contains gluten from wheat flour, which is a common allergen and unsuitable for individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.
Combined Effects interactions
Both maltitol (a sugar alcohol) and FOS L95 (a prebiotic fiber) can cause gastrointestinal distress, such as bloating, gas, and a laxative effect, especially when consumed together in significant amounts. This effect can be synergistic.
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.
The claim 'Quality Ingredients' is subjective and cannot be verified from the provided ingredient list alone.
The claim 'Oven Fresh' refers to the freshness at the time of consumption or packaging, which cannot be verified from the ingredient or nutrition list.
The claim 'Rich in Taste' is subjective and cannot be verified from the provided ingredient or nutrition list.
The claim 'Premium Quality' is subjective and cannot be verified from the provided ingredient or nutrition list.
The product is sweetened with a sugar alcohol (e.g. maltitol), which is NOT sugar, and the panel declares no added sugar — so the “no added sugar” claim is supported. (Sugar alcohols can still have a mild laxative effect in quantity.)
The ingredient list does not contain any egg or egg-derived ingredients.
The ingredient list includes Whole Wheat Flour, which supports the claim of goodness of wheat grain.
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.
