Our take
CleanPlate review13 g protein, no added sugar, many additives
Go Zero Chocolate Ice Cream Pastry is a 100 ml (80 g) pastry: ice cream (74%) of milk, milk solids and maltitol, a chocolate sponge (24%) and chocolate flakes (2%). The panel is printed per 80 g serve and converted here to per 100 g.
CleanPlate scores it CB2. The C for nutrition is middling: 13.2 g protein and 3.56 g fibre per 100 g. The B for ingredients reflects whole or lightly processed ingredients (led by ice cream, chocolate sponge and chocolate flakes), with additives that cost points: carrageenan, carboxymethyl cellulose, calcium phosphates and locust bean gum. The 2 for risk is low: sodium, free sugar and saturated fat are all modest (sodium 145 mg, free sugar 0 g, saturated fat 4.78 g per 100 g).

A closer look
Does the label add up?
Ice cream (74%) of milk and milk solids, maltitol, oligofructose, six gums and emulsifiers and stevia; a chocolate sponge (24%) of maida, maltitol, whey solids and oligofructose; and chocolate flakes (2%).
Per 100 g: 214 kcal, 8 g fat of which 4.78 g saturated, 3.79 g sugar of which 0 g added, 3.56 g fibre, 13.2 g protein, 145 mg sodium. The panel is printed per 100 ml (80 g) serve and converted to per 100 g; the declared 214 kcal is below the 247 kcal the macros add up to (about 16% lower), partly because maltitol, a polyol (8.9 g per serve), carries less energy.
Ingredients to watch
- Additive loadConcern
Carrageenan and carboxymethyl cellulose cost 6 points each, with 11 other additives; the additives score is 0 of 25.
- MaltitolWorth watching
A polyol that carries energy and can loosen the bowels in larger amounts.
- SodiumWorth watching
145 mg per 100 g.
- Protein and fibreFine
13.19 g protein and 3.56 g fibre per 100 g earn the nutrition grade of C.
Common misconceptions
Myth: "Zero sugar means no sugar at all"
The panel still shows 3.79 g of total sugar per 100 g, the sugar from milk.
Myth: "Polyols are free calories"
Maltitol carries energy; the macros add up to about 247 kcal against 214 declared.
