These are ready-to-eat cakes marketed as part of healthy eating ranges, including carrot, lemon and apple slices. The supplied data describe a range of sampled products rather than a single cake. They mainly provide carbohydrate, with 59g per 100g, including 47g of sugars. They also contain 2.5g of fat and provide 1091 kJ of energy per 100g.
Carbohydrate provides energy for the body. Sugars account for much of the carbohydrate in these cakes, which is worth noting when comparing products or monitoring sugar and energy intake. A healthy eating range label does not, by itself, indicate that a cake is low in sugar or energy. Individual products may differ from these sampled values. Full nutritional figures are in the tables below.
