About Choco wafer

Choco wafers are a popular snack that typically consist of thin, crispy layers of wafer filled with sweet cream and coated in chocolate. Originating from Europe, they have become a global favorite, enjoyed as a quick dessert, snack, or treat. Nutritionally, choco wafers are high in carbohydrates due to their sugar and refined flour content, and they often contain moderate amounts of fat from chocolate and cream fillings. They are generally low in protein and fiber and may contain added sugars and emulsifiers. While they provide energy, their high sugar and saturated fat content make them a treat best consumed in moderation.

• Minimal amounts of calcium may be present from milk-based cream fillings, which is essential for bone health.
