How this figure was derived
- Read from
- ~230 kcal / 100 g
- Energy density
- 230 kcal / 100 g
- Basis
- Per 100 g — a weight. Applying it to a volume would be wrong.
- Example, at 30 g
- 230 kcal / 100 g × 30 g ÷ 100 = ≈ 69 kcal
A planning figure, not a laboratory analysis. It is here so a recipe can be reasoned about, not so it can be declared on a menu.
Shelf life: Sealed dry: often 1–2 years. Keep dry once opened.
Storage: Dry store, sealed against moisture and odours.
- Dusting cappuccinos
- Hot chocolate (with real chocolate for depth)
- Frappé and milkshake flavour
The dusting itself is a calorie rounding error — the chocolate sauce and milk around it carry the real numbers in a mocha or hot chocolate.
