What to know about OB & GOB Vanilla & Choco Brownie Ice Cream Can

A brownie sundae can with no vanilla or cream

A 155 g single-serve can of ice cream layered with chocolate sauce (29%), eggless chocolate cake (16%) and dark chocolate flakes (3%). The base is milk solids and water, with sugar, gums, emulsifiers and flavouring. It is sold as a dessert for one, with brownie pieces and sauce in every spoonful.

One can gives about 383 kcal, 5.7 g protein, 7.7 g saturated fat and 38 g added sugar. Per 100 g that is 247 kcal, 3.68 g protein and 24.5 g added sugar. Sodium is low at 92 mg per 100 g, about 143 mg per can.

The name and the pack promise vanilla and a creamy ice cream, but the list has no vanilla and no cream: the vanilla note comes from vanillin and a nature-identical and artificial flavour, and milk solids and water lead. That sets the [L] flag. CleanPlate scores it [L]ED3.

Does OB & GOB Vanilla & Choco Brownie Ice Cream Can live up to its claims?

The vanilla ice-cream promise does not hold: no vanilla or cream is listed. The chocolate sauce and cake layers are real, at 29% and 16% of the can.

  • On the pack

    “Vanilla ice-cream”

    Misleading

    No vanilla and no cream is listed. The vanilla taste comes from vanillin and a nature-identical and artificial flavour, and milk solids and water lead the base.

  • Product name

    “Vanilla & Choco Brownie”

    Partly true

    Chocolate sauce is 29%, eggless chocolate cake 16% and dark chocolate flakes 3%. The chocolate and brownie layers are real, but the vanilla is flavouring only.

  • On the pack

    “Gooey layers”

    Holds

    Chocolate sauce at 29% and cake at 16% together make up almost half the can, so the layers are real.

  • On the pack

    “Creamy”

    Be careful

    No cream is listed. The texture comes from milk solids, water, gums and emulsifiers.

  • On the pack

    “Nutty”

    Be careful

    No nut is named in the ingredient list.

Why OB & GOB Vanilla & Choco Brownie Ice Cream Can scores [L]ED3

01 Nutrition density: why E

Protein is 3.68 g per 100 g, or 5.7 g per can, mostly from milk solids, with a little from the refined wheat flour in the cake. Added sugar of 24.5 g per 100 g makes up most of the carbohydrate.

No fibre, vitamins or minerals are declared, so nothing lifts the grade. Energy is 247 kcal per 100 g, 383 kcal per can.

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 D

The base is milk solids and water, with sugar, chocolate sauce and a cake made from refined wheat flour. Declared percentages cover the sauce, the cake and the chocolate flakes only.

The cake carries caramel colours 150c and 150d, and calcium phosphates (341) sits in its raising agent. Each costs ingredient points, as do the gums (410, 412, 415), the emulsifiers (471, 477) and the nature-identical and artificial flavouring.

The [L] flag comes from the name: vanilla and cream are named but not listed, and the chocolate flavouring in the cake appears while real chocolate is not among the top three ingredients. That costs further ingredient points. The preservative in the sauce, sodium benzoate (211), costs none.

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

03 Load risk: why 3

Added sugar is the biggest driver: 24.5 g per 100 g, about 38 g in one can. It makes up most of the risk number.

Saturated fat is 4.99 g per 100 g, about 7.7 g per can, and adds a smaller share. Sodium (92 mg per 100 g) adds little. Trans fat is declared at 0.07 g per 100 g, and no hydrogenated fat is listed.

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

[L] The name or pack claims promise more than the ingredient list delivers. See Claims vs reality.
