Biscuits, wafer, filled

Filled wafer biscuits are cereal-based biscuits made from layers of wafer with a filling between them. The figures here describe an assortment of packaged filled wafers. They mainly provide carbohydrate and fat. Per 100g, they contain 66g carbohydrate, including 45g sugars, and 30g fat, including 21g saturated fat.

Carbohydrate and fat supply energy to the body. The sugar and saturated fat content is worth noting for people monitoring their intake of these nutrients or their overall energy intake. Replacing saturated fat with unsaturated fat helps lower blood cholesterol. Full nutritional figures are provided in the tables below.
