Additive Analysis
The additives listed, such as Emulsifier (Soya lecithin), Raising agent (500(ii)), and Flour treatment agent (516), are generally considered safe by FSSAI within prescribed limits. The use of artificial and nature-identical flavors is common in confectionery but indicates a departure from natural ingredients. The primary health risks are associated with the high sugar and fat content, not the additives themselves.

Marketing Claims
The marketing claims are factual and describe the product's physical nature and quantity. It does not make any misleading health or nutritional claims. The use of the word 'Treats' accurately positions the product as an indulgence rather than a health food, which is ethically sound.
