What to know about Amul Fruit & Nut Dark Chocolate Bar

Dark chocolate with almonds, but 36 g added sugar

A 150 g composite dark chocolate bar built from cocoa solids, sugar and cocoa butter, with almonds (8%) and raisins (5%) added. Two emulsifiers and artificial cocoa and vanilla flavouring finish the list. It is bought as a familiar, sweet chocolate with some crunch and fruit in it.

Per 100 g the bar gives 499 kcal, 7.2 g protein, 38.3 g sugar (36.4 g of it added) and 32.5 g fat, of which 16.2 g is saturated. The pack's serve is 10 g, 15 servings in the bar, which works out to about 50 kcal, 3.6 g added sugar and 1.6 g saturated fat. Sodium is low at 33 mg per 100 g.

The pack leads with Dark Chocolate and 55% cocoa, and the almonds and raisins are real, though small shares. Sugar still makes up a large part of the bar, and the cocoa percentage is not repeated in the ingredient list. CleanPlate scores it EB5.

01 Nutrition density: why E

Protein is 7.2 g per 100 g and most of it comes from the cocoa solids. No fibre is declared, and the panel lists no vitamins or minerals, so nothing lifts the grade.

With 499 kcal per 100 g and sugar and fat making up most of the weight, the nutrition grade stays at the bottom.

Scored on protein, fibre and twelve vitamins and minerals, against the Codex and FSSAI "source" and "high" levels, per 100 g and per 100 kcal. Protein also has to supply at least 12.5% of the calories to count, and 25% for full credit.

02 Ingredient integrity: why B

The list is short and mostly recognisable: cocoa solids, sugar, cocoa butter, almonds (8%) and raisins (5%). No hydrogenated fat is listed, so the declared 0 g trans fat is accepted.

Three additives cost ingredient points: artificial flavouring substances (cocoa, vanilla), lecithin (322) and PGPR (476). Cocoa solids, sugar and cocoa butter carry no percentages, which is a small label gap.

Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.

03 Load risk: why 5

Added sugar is 36.4 g per 100 g and saturated fat is 16.2 g, more than three times the 5 g high line. Together with 499 kcal per 100 g they push risk to the top grade.

Sodium is only 33 mg per 100 g and trans fat is 0 g, so neither adds to it. One 10 g serve has 3.6 g added sugar and 1.6 g saturated fat.

Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.

Does Amul Fruit & Nut Dark Chocolate Bar live up to its claims?

The almonds and raisins are real but small, at 8% and 5%. The 55% cocoa claim is on the pack only, and the ingredient list gives no cocoa percentage.

  • Product name

    “Amul Fruit 'n' Nut”

    Partly true

    Almonds are 8% and raisins 5% of the bar. They are real, but cocoa solids, sugar and cocoa butter make up the rest.

  • On the pack

    “55% Rich in Cocoa”

    Be careful

    The 55% figure appears on the front and back of the pack. The ingredient list gives no cocoa percentage, and sugar still adds 36.4 g added sugar per 100 g.

  • Retail listing

    “Crammed with fruity and nutty nibbles”

    Be careful

    The retailer page says fruity nibbles. The pack shows one fruit, raisins at 5%, and almonds at 8%.

What's in Amul Fruit & Nut Dark Chocolate Bar?

Cocoa solids, sugar and cocoa butter lead the list, then almonds and raisins. Watch the added sugar, the saturated fat and the PGPR emulsifier and artificial flavouring.

The ingredient list, read for you

Cocoa solids, sugar and cocoa butter lead the list, so this is a sweet chocolate base with no percentages declared for them. Almonds (8%) and raisins (5%) add crunch and fruit. Emulsifiers 322 (lecithin) and 476 (PGPR) keep the chocolate smooth and flowing, and artificial cocoa and vanilla flavouring round out the taste.

Ingredients to watch

  • Added sugarConcern

    36.4 g per 100 g, about 3.6 g in a 10 g serve. It is the second ingredient and a big part of the risk grade.

  • Saturated fatConcern

    16.2 g per 100 g, over three times the 5 g high line, in a bar built on cocoa butter. A 10 g serve has 1.6 g.

  • PGPR (476) and lecithin (322)Worth watching

    Emulsifiers that cost ingredient points, PGPR more than lecithin.

  • Artificial flavouring (cocoa, vanilla)Worth watching

    Added on top of the cocoa solids, and it costs ingredient points.

  • Almonds and raisinsFine

    Real whole ingredients at 8% and 5%, though small shares.

  • Sodium and trans fatFine

    33 mg sodium per 100 g and 0 g trans fat, with no hydrogenated fat listed.

What it doesn’t have

  • No fibre is declared on the panel.
  • No vitamins or minerals are declared, and the cocoa share is not given in the ingredient list.

Who should eat Amul Fruit & Nut Dark Chocolate Bar?

Rarely for most adults, children and anyone watching blood sugar or weight. A 10 g serve has about 50 kcal and 1.6 g saturated fat.

  • Most adultsRarely

    36.4 g added sugar and 16.2 g saturated fat per 100 g.

  • ChildrenRarely

    High sugar plus artificial flavouring, with little else of value.

  • Diabetes or prediabetesRarely

    36.4 g added sugar per 100 g, about 3.6 g in a 10 g serve.

  • Weight managementRarely

    499 kcal per 100 g, so the full bar is about 750 kcal.
