Phab Cheat Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Fudge Bar
Published · Updated
Phab Cheat Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Fudge Bar is a peanut-based protein bar sweetened with dates and a sugar alcohol. It scores [F][L]CB3: nutrition is middling on protein and fibre, ingredients are fairly short but lose points for a no-added-sugar claim that date paste contradicts, and risk is moderate on saturated fat. Fine now and then as a protein snack.

What to know about Phab Cheat Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Fudge Bar
A 15 g protein bar with sugar in its dates
A 50 g protein fudge bar built on peanuts, fructooligosaccharide (a prebiotic fibre), date paste and pea protein isolate, with milk chocolate, vegetable fat, milk solids and cocoa solids further down. It is sold to people who want a sweet, chocolate-peanut treat that carries protein. No ingredient percentages are declared.
One bar gives 155 kcal, 15 g protein, 9.2 g fibre, 3.5 g total sugar and 3 g saturated fat. Per 100 g that is 311 kcal, 30 g protein and 18.5 g fibre. The sweetness comes from dates and from maltitol, a sugar alcohol that is listed twice, once inside the chocolate.
The protein and calorie claims are accurate. The no-added-sugar line is the weak point: date paste is a free-sugar ingredient, and the name stresses chocolate without saying how much is in the bar. CleanPlate scores it [F][L]CB3.
Does Phab Cheat Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Fudge Bar live up to its claims?
The protein and calorie claims hold, but no added sugar does not, because date paste is a free-sugar ingredient. The chocolate in the name has no declared share.
- On the packMisleading
“No added sugar. No sin. 15g protein”
Date paste is listed, and it is a free-sugar ingredient. Total sugar is 3.5 g per bar, so the no-added-sugar line does not tell the whole story.
- On the packHolds
“15g Protein”
30 g per 100 g, so one 50 g bar has 15 g, mostly from peanuts, pea protein and milk solids.
- On the packHolds
“Less than 160 calories”
One 50 g bar has 155 kcal.
- On the packBe careful
“Zero Added Sugar”
The panel declares 0 g added sugar, and the pack notes naturally occurring sugars. Dates and maltitol still sweeten the bar, and the dates are counted as free sugar.
- Product nameBe careful
“Chocolate Peanut Butter”
Peanuts and peanut butter are listed, and so is milk chocolate, but no percentage is declared for the chocolate.
Why Phab Cheat Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Fudge Bar scores [L][F]CB3
Nutrition is a C on 30 g protein and 18.5 g fibre per 100 g. Ingredients are a B but lose points for a sugar claim date paste contradicts, and risk is a 3 on 5.94 g saturated fat per 100 g.

01 Nutrition density: why C
Protein is 30 g per 100 g, so one 50 g bar has 15 g. The largest share comes from peanuts, with pea protein isolate and milk solids adding more. Fibre is 18.46 g per 100 g, but much of it is isolated fibre rather than whole-food fibre, which limits the credit it earns.
Without that boost from isolated fibre the grade would fall a step, so the C leans on the protein.
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 B
The list is short and mostly recognisable: peanuts, dates, pea protein, chocolate, vegetable fat and cocoa. There is no hydrogenated fat and no dye. Lecithin, guar gum, maltitol and the natural flavouring cost small ingredient points.
The front says no added sugar, but date paste is a free-sugar ingredient, so the claim costs ingredient points and sets the [L]. The name also stresses chocolate with no percentage declared, which costs a further label point.
Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.
Moderate risk
- Added sugar
- 0 g
- Sodium
- 186 mg
- Saturated fat
- 5.9 g
- Trans fat
- 0.02 g
03 Load risk: why 3
Saturated fat is the biggest driver: 5.94 g per 100 g, just over the 5 g high line, and 2.97 g in one bar. Free sugar from the dates is counted at 7.06 g per 100 g, even though the pack declares 0 g added sugar.
Sodium is 186 mg per 100 g (93 mg per bar) and energy is 311 kcal per 100 g, and both add a little. Trans fat is declared at 0.02 g per 100 g and no hydrogenated fat is listed, so it plays no part.
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.

Ingredients to watch

- Guar gum and flavouringWorth watching
Both are listed and cost small ingredient points.
- ProteinFine
30 g per 100 g, 15 g per bar, mainly from peanuts and pea protein.
What it doesn’t have
