What to know about The Baker's Dozen Peri Peri Toast

Zero maida, but 37 g fat and 730 mg sodium

A 90 g pack of bite-sized baked toast made from wholewheat flour (atta), with a seasoning of sunflower oil, salt, chilli, garlic, black pepper, oregano, parsley, dehydrated onion and tamarind powder. Sugar, more sunflower oil, yeast, iodized salt, milk powder, a flour treatment agent (INS 1100(i)) and gluten complete the list. No percentages are declared. It is bought as a snack, a soup accompaniment or a party nibble.

The pack prints a 10 g serve, nine to a pack. One serve has 58 kcal, 1.4 g protein and 73 mg sodium. Per 100 g it has 580 kcal, 14 g protein, 4 g fibre, 37 g fat (4 g saturated), 2 g added sugar and 730 mg sodium. Eating the whole pack would mean about 522 kcal and 657 mg sodium.

The front says Zero Maida and High Protein. The first holds: wholewheat flour leads and no maida is listed. The second is true per 100 g but small per serve. The back also says baked not fried, with zero palm oil and trans fat, and those hold too. CleanPlate scores it DB4.

Why The Baker's Dozen Peri Peri Toast scores DB4

Nutrition is a D because the toast is dense in fat and energy, with only 14 g protein and 4 g fibre per 100 g. Ingredients are a B, and risk is a 4 on 730 mg sodium and 580 kcal.

01 Nutrition density: why D

Protein is 14 g per 100 g and fibre is 4 g, but protein is only about a tenth of the calories. The largest protein source is the wholewheat flour, which is cereal protein, so the protein earns only part credit.

No vitamins or minerals are declared, so nothing else lifts the grade. With 580 kcal and 37 g fat per 100 g, the toast is energy-dense, which holds the grade at a D.

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

Wholewheat flour comes first and there is no maida, no palm oil and no hydrogenated fat. The rest is simple: sunflower oil, spices, sugar, yeast, salt and milk powder.

The flour treatment agent (INS 1100(i), an amylase enzyme) costs a small amount of ingredient points. The pack also says it contains added nature-identical flavouring, and no ingredient percentages are given. No claim on the pack is hollow.

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

Saturated fat

Trans fat

03 Load risk: why 4

Sodium is the biggest driver at 730 mg per 100 g, followed by energy at 580 kcal per 100 g. One 10 g serve has 73 mg sodium and 58 kcal, so the risk builds with the amount eaten.

Saturated fat is 4 g per 100 g, under the 5 g high line, and added sugar is 2 g. Trans fat is 0 g. Together these play a small part.

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

Red flags

  • Red flag: High sodium (730mg per 100g)

Green flags

  • Green flag: Source of fibre

Does The Baker's Dozen Peri Peri Toast live up to its claims?

Zero Maida and zero palm oil and trans fat hold. High Protein and baked not fried are true but framed: protein is 1.4 g per 10 g serve, and fat is 37 g per 100 g.

  • On the pack

    “ZERO MAIDA”

    Holds

    Wholewheat flour (atta) is the first ingredient and no refined flour is listed.

  • On the pack

    “HIGH PROTEIN”

    Be careful

    The toast has 14 g protein per 100 g, but that is about a tenth of its calories and only 1.4 g in a 10 g serve. Most of it comes from wheat.

  • Retail listing

    “100% Whole Wheat”

    Be careful

    Wholewheat flour leads, but the list also has added gluten, milk powder, sugar and oil, so the toast is not only wholewheat.

  • On the pack

    “BAKED NOT FRIED”

    Be careful

    Nothing on the label contradicts it, but the toast still has 37 g fat per 100 g from sunflower oil.

  • On the pack

    “ZERO PALM OIL & TRANS FAT”

    Holds

    The fat is sunflower oil, no hydrogenated fat is listed, and trans fat is declared at 0 g.

What's in The Baker's Dozen Peri Peri Toast?

Wholewheat flour leads, then a sunflower oil seasoning, sugar, more oil, yeast and salt. The oil and salt are what to watch.

The ingredient list, read for you

Wholewheat flour (atta) leads, so the toast is mainly a wholewheat base. A seasoning of sunflower oil, salt, chilli, garlic, black pepper, oregano, parsley, onion and tamarind gives the peri peri flavour, and more sunflower oil adds crispness.

Sugar, yeast and iodized salt follow, then milk powder, a flour treatment agent (INS 1100(i)) and gluten for structure. The pack adds that it contains nature-identical flavouring. No percentages are declared for any ingredient.

Ingredients to watch

  • SodiumConcern

    730 mg per 100 g, from the seasoning salt and iodized salt. One 10 g serve has 73 mg, and the full pack has about 657 mg.

  • Energy and fatConcern

    580 kcal and 37 g fat per 100 g, mostly sunflower oil. A 10 g serve is 58 kcal, so portion size matters.

  • Nature-identical flavouringWorth watching

    The pack states added nature-identical flavouring, and the amylase enzyme (INS 1100(i)) is a listed additive. Both cost a little in the ingredient grade.

  • Wholewheat base, no palm oilFine

    Wholewheat flour leads the list, the oil is sunflower, and no hydrogenated fat is listed.

  • Sugar and saturated fatFine

    Added sugar is 2 g and saturated fat is 4 g per 100 g, with trans fat at 0 g.

What it doesn’t have

  • No vitamins or minerals are declared on the panel.
  • No percentages are given for the wholewheat flour or the seasoning.

Who should eat The Baker's Dozen Peri Peri Toast?

An occasional snack for most adults, children and anyone watching blood sugar. Sodium of 730 mg per 100 g is the main limit.

  • Most adultsOccasionally

    730 mg sodium and 580 kcal per 100 g add up fast beyond a 10 g serve.

  • ChildrenOccasionally

    Salty and oil-dense, with 73 mg sodium in each 10 g serve.

  • Diabetes or prediabetesOccasionally

    Sugar is low at 2 g added per 100 g, but carbohydrate is 48 g and fibre only 4 g.

  • Active peopleOccasionally

    Protein is 14 g per 100 g but only 1.4 g per serve, so it is not a protein source.
