Why is Frischer Blätterteig classified as a highly processed food (NOVA 3) and which additives does it contain?

The product is made from refined wheat flour, palm fat and several processing aids, which places it in NOVA group 3. It contains two additives: ethyl alcohol (E1510) used as a solvent and citric acid (E330) as an acidity regulator.

How do the saturated fat and salt levels in this fresh puff pastry affect a heart‑healthy diet?

Per 100 g, the pastry provides 13.5 g of saturated fat and 0.6 g of salt; saturated fat can raise LDL cholesterol while salt can increase blood pressure, so regular consumption should be limited for those monitoring cardiovascular health.

Is Frischer Blätterteig suitable for a vegan or gluten‑free diet?

The product is vegan because it contains no animal‑derived ingredients, but it is not gluten‑free since wheat flour, which holds gluten, is the main component.
