What to know about Sofit Chocolate Soy Beverage

A fortified soy drink with 19 g added sugar

Sofit Chocolate Soy Beverage is a 190 ml carton of flavoured soy drink made from water, soyabeans (13.6%), sugar and cocoa solids (0.8%), with tricalcium phosphate, oligofructose (0.37%), two emulsifiers, an acidity regulator, flavouring, iodised salt and added vitamins and zinc. It is bought as a ready-to-drink, lactose-free chocolate drink that is vegan.

One carton gives 147 kcal, 6.1 g protein, 2.3 g fibre and 285 mg calcium. It also gives 19 g added sugar and 222 mg sodium. Per 100 ml that is 77 kcal, 3.2 g protein and 10 g added sugar, with only 0.32 g saturated fat.

The pack is right about what soy brings: plant protein, no lactose, no cholesterol and low saturated fat. The chocolate is a small part of the drink, with cocoa solids at 0.8% and vanilla flavouring alongside, and the sugar is the second-largest ingredient after soyabeans. CleanPlate scores it [F]CB4.

Why Sofit Chocolate Soy Beverage scores [F]CB4

Nutrition is a C because added vitamins and calcium lift a modest protein base. Ingredients are a B, held back by two cellulose emulsifiers and flavouring. Risk is a 4 on 10 g added sugar per 100 ml.

01 Nutrition density: why C

Protein is 3.21 g per 100 ml, 6.1 g in one carton, and fibre is 1.21 g per 100 ml, partly from added oligofructose. Energy is 77 kcal per 100 ml. The soy itself gives a modest base, so the core score is low.

Added calcium, zinc and vitamins A, E, B1, B2 and B12 add a large bonus. Without that fortification the grade would fall two steps to an E, so the C rests on what has been added to the drink.

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

Water, soyabeans and sugar lead the list, with real soyabeans at 13.6%. The percentages for soyabeans, cocoa and oligofructose are declared, and no label promise is hollow, so nothing is lost for label integrity.

Points are lost for additives: the emulsifier carboxymethyl cellulose (466) costs the most ingredient points, cellulose (460(i)) costs some, and so does the nature-identical and artificial vanilla flavouring. The acidity regulator 500(ii) 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 4

Added sugar is the main driver: 10 g per 100 ml, 19 g in one carton. It makes up most of the risk number, which lands on a 4.

Sodium is 117 mg per 100 ml, 222 mg per carton, and energy is 77 kcal per 100 ml. Saturated fat is low at 0.32 g per 100 ml and trans fat is 0 g, so they add very little.

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.

Does Sofit Chocolate Soy Beverage live up to its claims?

The protein, vitamin, no-preservative and low-saturated-fat claims hold. The chocolate is real but small, with cocoa solids at 0.8%, so the flavour leans on added flavouring.

  • On the pack

    “Chocolate Flavour, With Real Cocoa”

    Partly true

    Cocoa solids are real but make up 0.8% of the drink. Vanilla flavouring is listed too, and sugar is the second-largest ingredient.

  • On the pack

    “Vitamins A, E & B12”

    Holds

    Vitamin A, vitamin E and vitamin B12 are all added and listed. One carton has 143 mcg vitamin A, 2.1 mg vitamin E and 0.32 mcg vitamin B12.

  • On the pack

    “Plant Protein”

    Holds

    Soyabeans at 13.6% give 3.21 g protein per 100 ml, 6.1 g in one carton.

  • On the pack

    “No Preservatives”

    Holds

    No preservative is listed. The emulsifiers, acidity regulator and flavouring are additives, but not preservatives.

  • On the pack

    “Naturally low in saturated fat”

    Holds

    Saturated fat is 0.32 g per 100 ml, 0.6 g in one carton, and trans fat is 0 g.

What's in Sofit Chocolate Soy Beverage?

Water and soyabeans lead, then sugar. The added sugar and the emulsifier 466 are what to watch, while the added vitamins and calcium are a real plus.

The ingredient list, read for you

Water and soyabeans (13.6%) come first, so the base is a thin soy drink. Sugar is third, and cocoa solids follow at 0.8%. Tricalcium phosphate adds calcium, and oligofructose (0.37%) adds fibre.

Emulsifiers 460(i) and 466 keep the drink smooth and stop it settling, the acidity regulator keeps it stable, and vanilla flavouring rounds the taste. Iodised salt, zinc sulphate and vitamins E, A, B1, B2 and B12 finish the list.

Ingredients to watch

  • Added sugarConcern

    10 g per 100 ml, 19 g in one 190 ml carton. It is the main reason risk is a 4.

  • Emulsifier 466 (carboxymethyl cellulose)Worth watching

    The additive that costs the most ingredient points. Cellulose (460(i)) is listed beside it and costs a smaller amount.

  • Nature-identical and artificial flavouringWorth watching

    The vanilla flavouring costs ingredient points. It sits alongside cocoa that makes up only 0.8%.

  • SodiumWorth watching

    117 mg per 100 ml, 222 mg in one carton, partly from iodised salt.

  • Protein, calcium and low saturated fatFine

    6.1 g protein, 285 mg calcium and 0.6 g saturated fat in one carton.

Who should eat Sofit Chocolate Soy Beverage?

An occasional drink for most adults and children. Its 19 g added sugar per carton sets the limit, even though it is naturally lactose free.

  • Most adultsOccasionally

    19 g added sugar in one carton sets the limit.

  • ChildrenOccasionally

    19 g added sugar and artificial flavouring in a small carton.

  • Heart healthOccasionally

    Saturated fat is low at 0.6 g per carton, but the added sugar is high.

  • Lactose intoleranceOccasionally

    Naturally lactose free, but the 19 g added sugar still sets the frequency.
