Why Nescafe Cafe Style Iced Cappuccino Cold Coffee scores EB3

Nutrition is an E because the drink has 1.9 g protein per 100 ml and no fibre or declared vitamins. Ingredients are a B despite several additives, and risk is a 3, mostly from 7.3 g added sugar per 100 ml.

How we score →

01 Nutrition densityA to E

Very low nutrient density

Protein: 1.9 g
Fibre: Not declared
Vitamins and minerals: None declared
Energy: 57 kcal

01 Nutrition density: why E

Protein is 1.9 g per 100 ml, mostly from the toned milk, and there is no fibre. With 57 kcal per 100 ml and no vitamins or minerals declared, there is nothing to lift the grade.

In a 170 ml can that is about 3.2 g protein for about 97 kcal, with 12.4 g of it as added sugar.

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 integrityA to E

Good, few concerning additives

Base: Toned milk
Sweeteners: Sugar
Additives: 6
Flagged: None

02 Ingredient integrity: why B

The list starts with real dairy: toned milk at 40%, then milk solids, water and sugar. Coffee follows at 0.7%, so it is a small part of a drink named for coffee, which costs a small label point.

Several additives cost ingredient points. Carboxymethyl cellulose (466) costs the most, followed by cellulose (460(i)), xanthan gum (415), the nature-identical flavouring and lecithin (322(i)). The acidity regulators 500(ii) and 332(ii) cost nothing. No hydrogenated fat is listed.

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

03 Load risk1 to 5

Moderate risk

Added sugar: 7.3 g
Sodium: 78.3 mg
Saturated fat: 1 g

03 Load risk: why 3

Added sugar is the main driver: 7.3 g per 100 ml, or 12.4 g in one can. It accounts for most of the risk number, which lands on a 3.

Saturated fat (1.0 g per 100 ml, 1.7 g per can), sodium (78.3 mg per 100 ml, 133 mg per can) and energy add only a little. No trans fat line is printed.

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

Red flags

Red flag: High added sugar (7.3g per 100ml)

Green flags

Green flag: Low sodium

Does Nescafe Cafe Style Iced Cappuccino Cold Coffee live up to its claims?

The dairy base is real at 40% toned milk, but coffee is only 0.7% and the cappuccino taste is helped by flavouring. The pack's own sugar figure is 25% of the day's added sugar per can.

Product name
“Cold Coffee”
Partly true
Coffee is real but small, at 0.7% of the drink. Toned milk at 40% and sugar both come well ahead of it.
Product name
“Iced Cappuccino flavour”
Partly true
The name says flavour, which is honest, and the list shows nature-identical cappuccino flavouring alongside the 0.7% coffee.
On the pack
“Dairy Based Beverage”
Holds
Toned milk is 40%, with milk solids also listed, so milk is the base of the drink.
On the pack
“25% added sugar per serve”
Holds
One can has 12.4 g added sugar, which matches the pack's 25% of the daily reference.
Retail listing
“Total sugars 7.7 g per 100 ml”
Be careful
The retailer page shows total sugars of 7.7 g per 100 ml, the pack shows 7.6 g. The difference is small and the added sugar is 7.3 g either way.

What's in Nescafe Cafe Style Iced Cappuccino Cold Coffee?

Toned milk, milk solids, water and sugar lead the list, with coffee well down at 0.7%. The added sugar and the stabiliser blend are what to watch.

How we rate additives →

11 ingredients listed. None of them is an additive or watched ingredient in our research. 4 more entries look like additives we have not researched yet.

The ingredient list, read for you

Toned milk (40%), milk solids, water and sugar come first, so the drink is mostly milk with added sugar. Coffee (0.7%) and nature-identical cappuccino flavouring give the taste.

Stabilisers 460(i) and 466, thickener 415 and emulsifier 322(i) give the thick, frothy texture, and acidity regulators 500(ii) and 332(ii) keep it stable. Iodized salt is last, and the pack says it contains milk and soy.

Not in our additive research yet: Stabilizers (460(i) & 466); Acidity regulators (500(ii) & 332(ii)); Thickener (415); Emulsifier (322(i)).

Ingredients to watch

Added sugarConcern
7.3 g per 100 ml, 12.4 g in one can. This is the main driver of the risk number.
Carboxymethyl cellulose (466)Worth watching
A stabiliser that costs the most ingredient points of the additives here. Cellulose 460(i), xanthan gum 415 and the nature-identical flavouring cost smaller amounts.
Small coffee shareWorth watching
Coffee is 0.7% of the drink, so the coffee in the name is mostly taste and aroma, helped by flavouring.
Milk baseFine
Toned milk at 40% supplies 1.9 g protein per 100 ml, about 3.2 g per can.
Saturated fat and sodiumFine
1.0 g saturated fat and 78.3 mg sodium per 100 ml, about 1.7 g and 133 mg per can.
