Healthy Recipe Ideas
Balanced Chocolate Trail Mix
Chop one or two mini chocolates of your choice. Mix them into a bowl with a handful of unsalted almonds, walnuts, and pumpkin seeds. This creates a more balanced snack with added fiber and healthy fats.
Health Benefits
Adds fiber, protein, and healthy fats from nuts and seeds to balance the sugar content.
Yogurt and Berry Chocolate Parfait
In a glass, create layers starting with plain Greek yogurt. Add a layer of fresh berries (like strawberries or blueberries), followed by one crumbled mini chocolate. Repeat the layers.
Health Benefits
Incorporates protein from yogurt and vitamins from fresh fruit for a more nutritious dessert.
Additive Analysis
The additives used, such as emulsifiers (INS 322, 471, 476), humectant (INS 422), and raising agent (INS 500(ii)), are approved by FSSAI and generally considered safe for consumption within prescribed limits. The use of artificial flavor (Ethyl vanillin) is noted. The primary health concerns stem from the nutritional content rather than the additives themselves.
Preservatives

Artificial Colors

Marketing Claims
The marketing claims are emotional and subjective ('irresistible treat') rather than making specific, verifiable health or nutritional statements. The product is positioned as an indulgence for occasions like parties or as a post-meal treat, which is an accurate representation of its role in a diet. It does not mislead consumers into believing it is a health food.
