Ice cream sauce, topping, strawberry and chocolate flavours

Ice cream sauce is a sweet topping added to ice cream and other desserts. The data here cover strawberry and chocolate flavours. These sauces mainly provide carbohydrate: per 100g, they contain 73g of carbohydrate, including 62g of sugars, with 1177 kJ of energy and 0.2g of fat.

Carbohydrate provides energy for the body. The sugar content is worth noting for people monitoring their sugar or total energy intake, even though these sauces contain little fat. The figures describe the topping alone, not the ice cream or other food served with it. Full nutrient figures, including vitamins and minerals, are shown in the tables below.
