Why is LES VÉGÉTALES NOISETTE classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The product combines refined sugars, glucose syrup, emulsifiers, stabilisers such as guar gum (E412), carob seed flour and pea protein hydrolysate, all of which are manufactured ingredients typical of ultra‑processed foods, leading to its NOVA 4 classification.

How does the sugar content in this dessert affect a diabetic or blood‑sugar‑controlled diet?

With 23 g of sugars per 100 g, the dessert can cause a rapid increase in blood glucose, so people with diabetes should limit portion size and consider it an occasional treat rather than a regular food.

Is the hazelnut in LES VÉGÉTALES NOISETTE a concern for people with nut allergies?

Yes, the formulation contains caramelised hazelnut pieces and hazelnut puree, and nuts are listed among the declared allergens, making it unsuitable for anyone with a hazelnut or broader nut allergy.
