Chocolate, plain

Plain chocolate is a solid bar product made from cocoa ingredients and sugar. It mainly provides carbohydrate and fat. Per 100g, the chocolate described contains 64g of carbohydrate, including 63g of sugars, and 28g of fat, including 17g of saturated fat.

Carbohydrate and fat both provide energy. The sugar, fat and saturated fat content are worth noting for people monitoring their energy intake or limiting these nutrients. Eating too much saturated fat can raise LDL cholesterol in the blood, while frequent consumption of sugary foods contributes to tooth decay. Full nutrient figures are provided in the tables below.
