EU nutrition claims

  • Low salt: 0.14 g salt per 100 g (limit ≤ 0.3 g)
  • Source of fibre: 1.5 g fibre per 100 kcal (needs ≥ 1.5 g)

Per 100 g of the finished dish, worked out from the nutrition per serving and the lowest likely cooked weight (about 51 g a serving), so the true values are, if anything, lower. Thresholds from the Annex to EU Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006. How we decide

Caffeine · Free sugars

Caffeine
  • Per serving: about 4 mg caffeine (serving: 1 of 8 servings). Source: 1 g instant coffee/espresso powder × USDA FDC SR Legacy #171893 (instant coffee powder, 3142 mg/100 g); divided by 8 servings.
  • Scaling: making more servings does not change the caffeine in each serving; what counts is how many servings you drink in a day. 1 serving: 4 mg · 2 servings: 8 mg · 3 servings: 12 mg · 4 servings: 16 mg.
  • General guideline: EFSA Scientific Opinion on the safety of caffeine (2015): for healthy adults, up to 200 mg in a single dose and up to 400 mg per day do not raise safety concerns. 1 serving = 1 % of 400 mg. EFSA
Sugar (daily guide)

18.7 g per serving

37.4 % of the 50 g daily maximum · 74.8 % of the ideal 25 g

Free sugars under 50 g a day, ideally about 25 g, based on WHO free-sugar guidance (not endorsed by WHO). The share shown is the share of one serving. WHO
