Healthy Recipe Ideas
Croissant with Peanut Butter & Banana
Slice the croissant horizontally. Spread a thin layer of unsweetened peanut butter on one half. Top with slices of fresh banana and enjoy immediately.
Health Benefits
Adds protein, healthy fats, and potassium to the snack, making it more satiating and nutritionally balanced.
Croissant & Creamy Beverage
Lightly warm the croissant. Serve it alongside a glass of unsweetened cold coffee or a simple skim milk smoothie. This avoids adding more sugar to the meal.
Health Benefits
Pairs the treat with a source of calcium and protein without contributing extra sugar, creating a more balanced indulgence.
Additive Analysis
The product contains multiple additives including emulsifiers, preservatives, raising agents, and stabilizers. While these are generally permitted by FSSAI within specified limits, their high number indicates a heavily processed food item. The use of Titanium Dioxide (171) is permitted in India but has been banned in the EU due to safety concerns. Overall, the additives are legally compliant but frequent consumption is not advisable.

Marketing Claims
The marketing is compliant and does not make misleading health claims. It is accurately positioned as an indulgent 'Treat'. The term 'Flavoured Croissant' correctly informs the consumer that it is not a plain, bakery-style croissant. The imagery accurately depicts the product's appearance and filling.
