Ingredients worth knowing
Wheat flour, Vegetable oil (Palm), Malt (Barley) extract, Salt, Yeast, Emulsifier (Soya lecithin – INS 322), Leavening agent (Sodium bicarbonate – INS 500ii), Vitamin and mineral premix, Flour treatment agents (Ascorbic acid – INS 300). Product of Sri Lanka.
Malt Extract (Barley)
Natural flavouring/sweetening ingredient. Contains gluten — relevant for anyone with coeliac disease or gluten sensitivity.
Palm Oil
High in saturated fat and a common frying/spreading fat. Not a toxicity concern; the same fat family as palm olein, the liquid fraction already covered in this set.
Soya Lecithin
Common emulsifier from soybeans. Low concern except for those with soy allergy.
Sodium Bicarbonate (INS 500ii)
Common buffering/raising agent (baking soda). Low concern, negligible sodium contribution.
Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) (INS 300)
Vitamin C, used here as a natural antioxidant/preservative. No concern — it's a nutrient.
