EU nutrition claims
- Low fat: 0.1 g fat per 100 ml (limit ≤ 1.5 g)
- Low saturated fat: 0 g saturated fat per 100 ml, 0% of energy (limits ≤ 0.75 g and ≤ 10%)
- Low salt: 0.03 g salt per 100 ml (limit ≤ 0.3 g)
Per 100 ml of the finished dish, worked out from the nutrition per serving and the lowest likely cooked weight (about 104 ml 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
- Per serving: about 127 mg caffeine (serving: 1 glass (double espresso, 60 ml)). Source: 60 ml espresso × USDA FDC SR Legacy #171891 (espresso, 212 mg/100 g) (moka-pot coffee counted like espresso).
- 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: 127 mg · 2 servings: 254 mg (above EFSA 200 mg at once) · 3 servings: 381 mg (above EFSA 200 mg at once) · 4 servings: 508 mg (above EFSA 400 mg a day).
- 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 = 32 % of 400 mg. EFSA
10.7 g per serving
21.4 % of the 50 g daily maximum · 42.8 % 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
