Milka Chocolat au Lait (Alpine Milk Chocolate) — TREAT
Munch or Dump rates Milka Chocolat au Lait (Alpine Milk Chocolate) by Milka TREAT — score 45/90.
Simple milk chocolate, but sugar is the very first ingredient at 51g per 100g. A genuine treat, not an everyday food.
Why this verdict
- Sugar is the #1 ingredient at 51g per 100g
- 35% fat, 17% of it saturated
- Simple, recognizable list, so a treat rather than lab-engineered junk
- Only 30% minimum cocoa; the rest is mostly sugar and milk fat
Ingredients (9)
- Sugar (concerning) — Added sugar, third by weight, feeds yeast and adds sweetness with no nutritional benefit.
- Cocoa Butter (safe) — The natural fat of the cocoa bean; rich and calorie-dense but not an industrial oil.
- Cocoa paste (cocoa mass) (safe) — Ground cocoa solids, the actual chocolate. Source of the small amount of cocoa polyphenols here.
- Skimmed Milk Powder (safe) — Dairy protein and calcium; the real source of the 'milk' marketing
- Whey powder (milk) (moderate) — Cheap milk-derived filler and sweetener carrier.
- Concentrated butter (butterfat) (moderate) — Added dairy fat that pushes up the saturated fat load.
- Emulsifier (soy lecithin) (safe) — Common, well-tolerated emulsifier to keep the chocolate smooth
- Hazelnut paste (safe) — Small amount of ground hazelnut for flavor. A real-food ingredient but also a nut allergen.
- Natural flavor (moderate) — Undisclosed flavor compounds; vague catch-all term.
