Health Benefits
This recipe balances the indulgence of chocolate with protein from yogurt and vitamins from fresh fruit.
Crushed Perk Milkshake Garnish
1. Prepare a healthy milkshake using milk or a plant-based alternative, one banana, and a few almonds. 2. Blend until smooth and pour into a glass. 3. Crush one Perk Mini Treat and sprinkle it sparingly on top as a garnish. 4. Enjoy as an occasional treat.

Additive Analysis
The product contains several FSSAI-approved emulsifiers (INS 442, 322, 476), a raising agent (INS 500(ii)), and an improver (INS 1101(i)). It also contains artificial vanilla and milk flavors. While these additives are permitted within regulated limits, their presence categorizes the product as highly processed. Overall risk is considered low for the general population when consumed in moderation.

Marketing Claims
The claim 'Perk Khao, Light Ho Jao' (Eat Perk, Feel Light) is questionable and potentially misleading. The product is calorie-dense (513 kcal/100g) and high in sugar and fat. Associating it with 'feeling light' can create a false perception of it being a low-calorie or healthy food, which contradicts its nutritional profile. Claims like 'crispy' and 'chocolatey' are subjective puffery and acceptable.
