Biscuits and cakes: Nutrition Facts and Calories
This category covers a wide range of sweet baked goods, often enjoyed as snacks or desserts. Products include biscuits, cookies, cakes, and cake bars. Many items in this category are subject to UK restrictions on placement in store and volume-price offers due to being high in fat, salt, or sugar (HFSS). The ingredient list typically shows flour as the primary ingredient, followed by sugar, fats, and eggs. The order of ingredients indicates their relative proportions by weight. The nutrition label provides information on energy content, fat, saturated fat, carbohydrates, sugars, and salt per serving. For those seeking options with more fibre, the label will show the gram amount per serving, and the ingredient list may indicate the presence of wholemeal flour. The Eatwell Guide from the NHS advises limiting foods high in sugar, salt, and fat. Free sugars should not exceed 5% of total dietary energy, and adults should have no more than 6g of salt a day. All values are shown per 100 g so products can be compared.
