Our take

CleanPlate review

Low calories, three synthetic dyes

Havmor Rajwadi Kulfi Falooda Ice Cream is a 750 ml tub of added water, milk solids and sugar with a rose sauce (7%), processed vermicelli (3.3%), processed basil seeds (2.5%), almonds, cashew and pistachio. The panel is printed per 125 ml serve and converted here to per 100 ml.

CleanPlate scores it [R]ED2. The E for nutrition is low: almost no credited protein, fibre or micronutrients per 100 ml. The D for ingredients reflects whole or lightly processed ingredients (led by milk solids, sugar and processed vermicelli), with additives that cost points: carrageenan, polysorbate 80, carboxymethyl cellulose and flavouring. A red flag (Southampton Six x3+) cuts the score by 40%. The 2 for risk is low: sodium, free sugar and saturated fat are all modest (sodium 54.5 mg, free sugar 9.76 g, saturated fat 3.6 g per 100 ml).

Ingredients to watch

  • Synthetic dyesConcern

    Tartrazine (102), carmoisine (122) and Ponceau 4R (124) are three of the Southampton Six, so the red flag applies.

  • Gums and emulsifiersConcern

    Carrageenan, polysorbate 80 and carboxymethyl cellulose cost 6 points each, and the additives score is 0 of 25.

  • Added sugarWorth watching

    9.76 g per 100 ml, with six 125 ml servings in the tub.

  • CaloriesFine

    A modest 124 kcal per 100 ml.

Common misconceptions

Myth: "Falooda ice cream is lighter because of the seeds and vermicelli"

The basil seeds are 2.5% and the vermicelli 3.3% of the tub; the rest is milk solids, sugar and gums.

Myth: "Coloured desserts are naturally coloured"

This tub lists three synthetic dyes (INS 102, 122, 124) on the pack.

  • Diabetes or prediabetesLimit

Smarter ways to eat it

Serve a small scoop

Half of a 125 ml serve is about 62 kcal and 4.9 g of added sugar.

Skip the synthetic dyes

Check the list for INS 102, 122 or 124; a kulfi without them has no red flag.
