Balocco Bambu Extra Cream Wafer Filled With Hazelnut Cream — ENGINEERED

Munch or Dump rates Balocco Bambu Extra Cream Wafer Filled With Hazelnut Cream by Balocco ENGINEERED — score 30/90.

A lab-built sweet snack: three different sugars (glucose syrup, sugar, dextrose) stacked on refined flour and coconut oil. The hazelnut you're paying for is barely 8.6% of the whole thing.

Why this verdict

• Three separate sweeteners stacked: glucose syrup, sugar, and dextrose
• Refined wheat flour + coconut oil + sugar = the classic hyper-palatable triad
• Hazelnut is only 8.6% of total; cheap flour and sugar do the heavy lifting
• ~515 kcal and 24g sugar per 100g — calorie-dense, nutritionally thin
• NOVA 4 ultra-processed with added emulsifier (soya lecithin)

Ingredients (12)

• wheat flour (moderate) — Thickening agent, not harmful but adds processing.

• Dehydrated glucose syrup (caution) — A second sweetener system in the fruit fillings.
• Sugar (moderate) — Added for sweetness, can contribute to calorie content.
• HAZELNUTS (safe) — Whole nut, unsaturated fats.
• Whey powder (milk) (safe) — Milk-derived protein used for texture; benign.
• Soya flour (safe) — Adds protein and softness; a common bakery filler, generally fine.
• Dried Skimmed Milk (safe) — Adds body and dairy notes cheaply; processed but benign.
• Low-fat cocoa (safe) — Defatted cocoa powder for color and flavor; harmless in this amount.

• Raisin (safe) — Dried fruit; whole-food but sugar-dense.
