What You Should Know

You'd spot these in the natural foods or baking aisle, or grab a pouch for a small indulgent bite while cooking or winding down. They feel wholesome and slightly indulgent—an artisanal, bittersweet chocolate moment with a nostalgic, simple‑ingredient vibe. The short ingredient list and cocoa‑butter‑rich, meltable texture point to straightforward processing rather than heavy industrial reformulation.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:3 / 4

Processed Food

Why this score?

Made from transformed cocoa components (cacao liquor, butter, powder) and added sugar, this is a processed food rather than an unprocessed ingredient. The absence of emulsifiers, artificial flavors, or ultra-processed additives keeps it out of NOVA 4, but the formulation and manufacturing place it in NOVA 3.
