Reviewed 3 times · Methodology v3.1 (updated 8 Oct 2026) — what changed
This protein bar offers a good source of protein and healthy fats from nuts and dates, making it a suitable snack for most healthy adults. However, its high sugar content from dates and the presence of whey protein blend, which can be an allergen, warrant caution for specific groups. The product is generally well-formulated with transparent ingredient disclosure, but individuals with dairy allergies or those monitoring sugar intake should be mindful.

Claim check
1 claim not supported by label dataFront-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 'too much protein' is subjective and not a quantifiable nutritional claim that can be verified as accurate or false from the label. While the product contains 20g of protein per serving, whether this is 'too much' depends on individual dietary needs and context.
This is a brand name and cannot be verified from the ingredient list or nutrition facts.
This is a marketing statement about suitability for a specific activity and cannot be verified from the ingredient list or nutrition facts.
The ingredient list includes both cocoa powder and cocoa butter, supporting the 'double cocoa' claim.
The ingredient list contains cashews, dates, whey protein blend, almonds, cocoa powder, and cocoa butter, and no other ingredients are listed, supporting the 'That's all!' claim.
The nutrition information states 20.3g of protein per serving, which supports the claim of 20g protein.

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.
