How this figure was derived
- Read from
- ~34 kcal / 100 ml
- Energy density
- 34 kcal / 100 ml

- Example, at 30 ml
- 34 kcal / 100 ml × 30 ml ÷ 100 = ≈ 10 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: Per date on pack; once opened, use within a few days kept at ≤ 4°C.
