Additive Analysis
The additives used, such as Emulsifier (Soya lecithin), Raising agent (500(ii)), and Flour treatment agent (516), are permitted by FSSAI and generally considered safe. The use of artificial and nature-identical flavors is common in confectionery but less desirable than natural flavoring.

Marketing Claims
The marketing claims are descriptive of the product's taste and texture and are not misleading. The term 'Dark Chocolate' is used, and the product does contain cocoa solids, though the percentage (28.2% in the chocolate portion) is on the lower end for dark chocolate. No unsubstantiated health claims are made.
