Why Only Earth Chocolate Shake Oat Beverage scores [L][F]CB3
Nutrition is a C only because of added vitamins and minerals. Ingredients are a B but lose points for 1.3% cocoa and several additives. Risk is a 3, driven by 6.36 g added sugar per 100 ml.
Adequate nutrient density
- Protein
- 1.1 g
- Fibre
- 0.82 g
- Vitamins and minerals
- 10 declared
- Energy
- 78 kcal
01 Nutrition density: why C
The core is low: protein is 1.11 g and fibre 0.82 g per 100 ml, so a glass has 1.8 g protein and 1.4 g fibre. Nearly all of the grade comes from the vitamin and mineral bonus.
Calcium is 145 mg per 100 ml, with vitamins D, B1, B2 and B12, iron among the fortified nutrients. Without that fortification the grade would be an E.
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.

- Carrageenan
02 Ingredient integrity: why B
Water, oats (8%) and sugar lead, and sunflower oil is the only added fat. No preservative is listed, and only oats and cocoa carry a percentage.
Cocoa powder at 1.3% sits under the 2% line for a drink sold as a chocolate shake, which sets the [L] and costs ingredient points.
Carrageenan, gellan gum, calcium phosphates, calcium carbonate, lecithin and natural flavour each cost ingredient points, and carrageenan costs the most of them.
Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.
Moderate risk
- Added sugar
- 6.4 g
- Sodium
- 47.1 mg
- Saturated fat
- 0.25 g
- Trans fat
- 0 g
03 Load risk: why 3
Sugar drives the risk: 6.36 g added sugar per 100 ml is by far the biggest part of the number, and a glass has about 10.5 g.
Energy is 78 kcal per 100 ml, sodium 47 mg and saturated fat 0.25 g, so they add little. Trans fat is 0 g.
Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.
[F] Added vitamins or minerals meaningfully lift this product's nutrition grade. Without them it would score lower.
[L] The name or pack claims promise more than the ingredient list delivers. See Claims vs reality.

Does Only Earth Chocolate Shake Oat Beverage live up to its claims?
The calcium, vitamin and no-preservative claims hold. The Belgian chocolate name does not, because cocoa is only 1.3% of the drink, and guilt free needs care with 10.5 g added sugar per glass.
- Product nameMisleading
“Belgian Chocolate Shake”
Cocoa powder is only 1.3% of the drink, under the 2% line, and the chocolate taste leans on natural flavour and sugar.
- On the packHolds
“Vitamin D, B1, B2 & B12”
All four are declared: 1.2 mcg vitamin D and 0.3 mcg vitamin B12 per 100 ml, with 0.2 mg each of B1 and B2.
- On the packHolds
“Source of Calcium”
145 mg calcium per 100 ml, about 240 mg in a 165 ml glass, added as calcium compounds.
- On the packBe careful
“Guilt free”
The drink has no cholesterol and no trans fat, but it carries 6.36 g added sugar per 100 ml, about 10.5 g in a glass.
- On the packHolds
“No added preservatives”
No preservative is listed. The acidity regulators, emulsifier and stabilisers are additives, but not preservatives.
What's in Only Earth Chocolate Shake Oat Beverage?
Water, oats at 8% and sugar lead the list, with cocoa at 1.3%. The stabilisers, carrageenan above all, and the natural flavour are what to watch.
13 ingredients listed. Additives and watched ingredients we rate: 1 low concern. 3 more entries look like additives we have not researched yet.
The ingredient list, read for you
Water comes first, then oats at 8% and sugar, so the base is thin oat drink sweetened with sugar. Cocoa powder follows at 1.3%, then sunflower oil, added vitamins and minerals, and natural flavour.
The rest is texture and stability: acidity regulators, lecithin as emulsifier, gellan gum and carrageenan as stabilisers, a little Himalayan pink salt and citrus peel extract. Percentages are given only for oats and cocoa.
The label numbers, read for you
Added sugar is 6.36 g per 100 ml, which is about 10.5 g in a 165 ml glass, out of 9.79 g total sugar per 100 ml. That sugar is the number that sets the risk grade. Energy is 78 kcal per 100 ml, about 129 kcal a glass.
Protein is small at 1.11 g per 100 ml, about 1.8 g a glass, and fibre is 0.82 g. Calcium is the strong point at 145 mg per 100 ml, about 240 mg a glass, alongside vitamins D, B1, B2 and B12. Sodium is 47 mg per 100 ml and saturated fat 0.25 g.
What the additives do
Carrageenan (low concern): thickener and stabiliser. A seaweed-derived thickener used in dairy drinks and desserts. Food-grade carrageenan is approved, but its effect on the gut is debated. More on Carrageenan.
Not in our additive research yet: Acidity regulators (INS 341(iii), INS 170(i)); Emulsifier (INS 322); INS 418.
Ingredients to watch
- Natural flavourWorth watching
Adds chocolate taste to a drink where real cocoa is only a small share. It costs ingredient points.
- Acidity regulators (INS 341(iii), INS 170(i))Worth watching
Calcium phosphate and calcium carbonate keep the oat base stable and add calcium to the drink. They cost ingredient points.
- Emulsifier (INS 322)Worth watching
Lecithin keeps the sunflower oil mixed through the water so the shake stays even. It costs ingredient points.
- Stabiliser (INS 418)Worth watching
Gellan gum holds the cocoa and oat particles in suspension so the drink does not settle. It costs ingredient points.
- Stabiliser (INS 407)Fine
Carrageenan thickens the drink for a creamier feel and helps stop separation. It costs ingredient points.
What it doesn’t have
- No percentage is given for sugar or sunflower oil, only for oats and cocoa.
- Protein and fibre are low for an oat-based drink.
What to know about Only Earth Chocolate Shake Oat Beverage
An oat drink with just 1.3% cocoa
A 165 ml carton of oat drink made from water, oats (8%), sugar and cocoa powder (1.3%), with sunflower oil, added vitamins and minerals, acidity regulators, stabilisers and natural flavour. It is sold to people who want a dairy-free, lactose-free chocolate shake, and the pack carries a Vegan logo.
One glass of 165 ml gives about 129 kcal, 1.8 g protein and 10.5 g added sugar. Per 100 ml that is 78 kcal, 1.11 g protein and 6.36 g added sugar. In return the drink is fortified: 145 mg calcium per 100 ml, about 240 mg in a glass, plus vitamins D, B1, B2 and B12.
The front calls it a Belgian Chocolate Shake, but cocoa powder is only 1.3% of the drink and the chocolate taste leans on natural flavour. That small share is what sets the [L] flag. The calcium and vitamin claims are real. CleanPlate scores it [F][L]CB3.
