Winkies Fruit Cake with Raisins & Tutti Frutti

Winkies Fruit Cake with Raisins & Tutti Frutti is a 130 g slab cake made from refined wheat flour, sugar, eggs, bakery shortening, palm oil, fruit cuts (6%), raisins (4%), humectants, a cake gel, preservatives and flavourings. The panel is printed per 100 g.

CleanPlate scores it [R]ED4. The E for nutrition is low: almost no credited protein, fibre or micronutrients per 100 g; its 7.58 g of protein earns no credit because it is under 2.75 g per 100 kcal. The D for ingredients reflects mostly refined or industrial ingredients (led by refined wheat flour, sugar and eggs), with additives that cost points: flavouring, propylene glycol, guar gum and xanthan gum. A red flag (hydrogenated fat / vanaspati (unqualified)) cuts the score by 40%. The 4 for risk comes mainly from saturated fat (10.8 g per 100 g) and free sugar (25.3 g per 100 g).

Per 100 g: 423 kcal, 20.1 g fat of which 10.8 g saturated, 32.9 g sugar of which 25.3 g added, 7.58 g protein, 265 mg sodium. Hydrogenated vegetable fat has no partly or fully qualifier, so it is scored as partially hydrogenated oil and the score is provisional (PHO_DEFAULT). The listing says 150 g; the pack prints 130 g (two 20 g slices times 6.5), and the pack is used. Cholesterol is 78 mg per 100 g on the pack.
