Council note
Fine sometimes. Better than most of Chocolate — 27 of 29 sit at or below this number.
The pack
Lindt 85% is cocoa first, sugar later. It is still a rich food — fat and calories are the point of chocolate — but it is not a sugar bar in a tuxedo.
How often
Sometimes
Who it’s for
People who like bitter cocoa.
Skip if
You wanted a sweet milk chocolate, or you avoid soy lecithin.

Origin
Switzerland
A serving
Two squares after dinner. The rest of the bar is tomorrow.
- Cocoa-led
- Lower sugar than milk chocolate
- Still a dense fat

What pulled it down
This nutrition box cannot be rated Excellent
This is a treat pattern. It can only scrape into low Good if the list is clean and it is not ultra-processed.
Processing sets a ceiling
This is simply processed food. Fine often. Not a keep unless the rest of the pack is honest.
A weak-ish nutrition box
About 2.8 teaspoons of sugar in 100 g. Fat is high. Fibre is a genuine plus. A treat pattern.
What held it up
A quiet ingredient list
No high- or moderate-concern additives. The extras, if any, are pantry-familiar.
Also worth knowing
Simply made
Made with a few extra steps. Still recognisable as food.
Nutrition is half the number. Ingredients a quarter. How processed a fifth. Organic is a small bonus — it cannot rescue a sugary drink or a nitrite ham. How this compares to Nutri-Score

Ingredients
Cocoa mass, cocoa powder, cocoa butter, sugar, vanilla, soy lecithin (E322).
Sugar
Low concernNot a toxin. A teaspoon is a teaspoon. The issue is how many hide in drinks and breakfast.
Cocoa
No concernA keep. Fat content varies; the bar’s sugar is the usual snag.
LecithinE322
No concernGenerally fine. Soy lecithin can matter if you are highly soy-allergic.
Vanilla
No concernLow concern. Real pod vs vanillin is a taste argument.
