Cocoa powder, made up with skimmed milk

This cocoa drink is made from cocoa powder, sugar and skimmed milk. The figures describe the prepared drink rather than the dry powder. It mainly provides carbohydrate and protein, with calcium supplied by the milk. Per 100g, it contains 6.7g of carbohydrate, including 6.5g of sugars, along with 3.7g of protein and 123mg of calcium.

Calcium is needed for the maintenance of bones and teeth, while protein supports the growth and repair of body tissues. The total sugar content includes both naturally occurring milk sugar, called lactose, and the sugar added during preparation. This distinction is relevant when considering sugar intake. Full nutrient figures for the prepared drink are given in the tables below.
