Cake bars, chocolate

Chocolate cake bars are ready-to-eat cake products containing chocolate or chocolate chips. The figures describe a range of these products, rather than a single brand. They mainly provide carbohydrate and fat. Per 100g, they contain 58g of carbohydrate, including 42g of sugars, and 22g of fat, including 9.9g of saturated fat.

Carbohydrate and fat provide energy for the body. The sugar and saturated fat content are points to note for people monitoring these parts of their diet. Eating too much saturated fat can raise blood cholesterol, while frequent consumption of foods containing sugar can contribute to tooth decay. Nutrient content varies between products, so individual labels may differ. Full nutritional figures are in the tables below.
