Why is Crème dessert chocolat classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

It is labeled NOVA 4 because its formulation relies on refined ingredients such as added sugars, modified corn starch, skimmed milk and the emulsifier carrageenan (E 407), which are typical of ultra‑processed foods.

How does the sugar and salt content of this chocolate custard affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

The 15 g of sugar per 100 g can cause rapid spikes in blood glucose, making it unsuitable for strict diabetic diets, while the low salt (0.16 g) is modest but the overall high sugar still outweighs any benefit for hypertensive individuals.

Is the milk in Crème dessert chocolat a concern for people with lactose intolerance or dairy allergies?

Yes, the product contains whole milk, skimmed milk, cream, lactose and milk proteins, so it is not safe for people with lactose intolerance or dairy‑milk allergies.

Product Insights

Crème dessert chocolat is a refrigerated chocolate-flavored dairy dessert belonging to the Milk and dairy products family (dairy desserts).
