What to know about Sunbean Mochaccino Caffe Mix
A coffee mix that is mostly sugar and maltodextrin
Sunbean Mochaccino Caffe Mix is sold as six 12 g sachets (72 g in all) of instant mochaccino powder. The list starts with sugar and maltodextrin, then soluble coffee powder (15%), chicory (6.4%) and coffee extract with nature-identical flavouring. You stir one sachet into a cup of hot or cold milk, and it is aimed at people who want a café-style drink at home without a machine.
Per 100 g the powder has 385 kcal, 3.1 g protein, 62.3 g total sugar (58.5 g of it added) and 0.01 g fat. Sodium is low at 69.9 mg. In one 12 g sachet that is 46 kcal, about 7 g of added sugar and under 0.4 g protein, and the milk you add brings its own calories and protein on top.
The pack says mochaccino, with a footnote reading added coffee mocha flavour, and no cocoa or chocolate is listed. The coffee and chicory are real, but sugar and maltodextrin lead the list and are the larger part of the powder. CleanPlate scores it EB4.
Why Sunbean Mochaccino Caffe Mix scores EB4
Nutrition is an E because the powder is mostly sugar and maltodextrin with 3.1 g protein per 100 g. Ingredients are a B, and risk is a 4 on 58.5 g added sugar per 100 g.
Very low nutrient density

- 3.1 g
- Fibre
- Not declared
- Vitamins and minerals
- None declared
- Energy
- 385 kcal
01 Nutrition density: why E
Protein is 3.1 g per 100 g and no protein contributor is identified, so it earns no credit. Fibre is not declared, and the carbohydrate is 93.2 g per 100 g, mostly sugar and maltodextrin.
No vitamins or minerals are declared, so nothing lifts the grade. In one 12 g sachet you get 46 kcal and under 0.4 g 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 clear: sugar, maltodextrin, soluble coffee powder, chicory and coffee extract with flavouring. No hydrogenated fat, dye or preservative is listed, and the label makes no hollow promise, so the grade holds up.
The nature-identical flavouring costs ingredient points. Percentages are given only for coffee (15%) and chicory (6.4%), not for sugar or maltodextrin, which costs a little on label detail.
Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.
High risk
- Added sugar
- 58.5 g
- Sodium
- 69.9 mg
03 Load risk: why 4
Sugar drives the risk number: 58.5 g of added sugar per 100 g, which is about 7 g in one sachet. Energy at 385 kcal per 100 g adds a smaller share.
There is no saturated fat or trans fat, and sodium is only 69.9 mg per 100 g, so neither plays a part.
Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.

Does Sunbean Mochaccino Caffe Mix live up to its claims?

The ingredient list, read for you
Sugar and maltodextrin come first, so the powder is mostly sweetener and bulking carbohydrate, though neither has a declared percentage. Soluble coffee powder (15%) gives the coffee, chicory (6.4%) adds roasted body, and coffee extract with nature-identical flavouring rounds out the mocha taste.
