Carrés aux amandes

Carrés aux amandes are frozen almond‑flavoured pastry squares made with wheat flour, sugar, vegetable fats and a small amount of almond. They belong to the sugary snacks and biscuits‑and‑cakes groups, carry a Nutri‑Score of E (score 21) and are classified as NOVA 4 ultra‑processed, reflecting the presence of refined sugars, multiple starches and several food‑additive agents such as sorbitol, guarana gum, pectin and preservatives (E202, E450, E500). Nutritionally the product is high in sugars (37 g/100 g) and saturated fat (6.8 g/100 g), while its salt, total fat and energy are modest, and it contains allergens including milk, soy, wheat gluten and almonds, as well as palm oil linked to threatened‑species concerns.
