Healthy Recipe Ideas
Cake with Greek Yogurt and Berries
1. Take one slice of the fruit cake. 2. Top with a generous spoonful of unsweetened Greek yogurt. 3. Garnish with fresh berries like strawberries or blueberries to add natural sweetness and vitamins.
Health Benefits
Pairing the cake with protein-rich yogurt and antioxidant-rich berries helps to balance the sugar spike and adds nutritional value.
Quick Fruit Cake Trifle
1. Crumble a small piece (half a serving) of the cake into the bottom of a glass. 2. Add a layer of homemade, low-sugar fruit custard. 3. Top with a sprinkle of chopped almonds and walnuts.
Health Benefits
This portion-controlled dessert adds protein from custard and healthy fats and fiber from nuts, making it a more balanced treat.
Additive Analysis
The additives used, such as preservatives (INS 200) and emulsifiers, are generally permitted by FSSAI. However, the most significant risk comes from the use of 'Hydrogenated Vegetable Fat', which contributes to the presence of trans fats, a major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. The presence of polyols (INS 420) also necessitates a warning for potential laxative effects.

Marketing Claims
The claim 'Rich Butter Fruit Cake' is questionable. While the product does contain butter, it is only at a concentration of 4.5%. The ingredients list also includes 'Bakery Shortening' and 'Hydrogenated Vegetable Fat', suggesting these are more significant fat sources. Emphasizing 'Rich Butter' on the front of the package could mislead consumers into believing butter is the primary or sole fat ingredient, which is not the case.
