Product Insights
The Dark Chocolate Date Bar is a sugary snack belonging to the "Sugary snacks" and "Chocolate products" families. It carries a Nutri‑Score of E and is classified in the ultra‑processed NOVA 4 group, reflecting its high sugars (53 g per 100 g), modest protein (2.3 g) and a notable proportion of saturated fat (9.4 g). While the bar offers natural ingredients such as 67 % date paste, dark chocolate and vanilla, it also contains soy‑derived lecithin, coconut‑oil salt and a high overall sugar and salt load, which limits its suitability for low‑sugar or low‑salt diets.
