Ingredients worth knowing

Sugar, Cocoa Butter Substitute, Peanut (20%), Full Cream Milk Powder, Cocoa Powder, Emulsifier (Soya Lecithin – INS 322), Antioxidant 0.02% (Ascorbyl Palmitate – INS 304) & Nature Identical Vanilla Flavour

Cocoa Butter Substitute
Non-cocoa vegetable fat (often palm-based) used to replace some cocoa butter — cheaper and more heat-stable, but a lower-quality substitute than real cocoa butter. Not a toxicity concern.
Ascorbyl Palmitate (INS 304)
Fat-soluble form of Vitamin C used as an antioxidant to keep fats from going rancid. Low concern, essentially a nutrient derivative.
Soya Lecithin
Common emulsifier from soybeans. Low concern except for those with soy allergy.
