About Milky bar
Milky Bar is a popular white chocolate confection created by Nestlé, originally introduced in 1936 in the UK. It is primarily made from cocoa butter, sugar, and milk solids, giving it its signature creamy and sweet taste. White chocolate, unlike milk or dark chocolate, contains no cocoa solids, which defines its flavor and pale color. Nutritionally, a standard serving (25g) of Milky Bar contains approximately 137 calories, 7.8g of fat (5.3g saturated), 15.7g of carbohydrates (primarily sugars), and 1.5g of protein. It is primarily a source of quick energy due to its high sugar content, but it is low in fiber, vitamins, and minerals.
Health Benefits
- Provides quick energy due to its high simple carbohydrate content, making it a fast source of glucose for physical activity.
- Contains calcium from milk solids, which supports bone health; one serving provides approximately 4-5% of the daily calcium requirement.
- Includes cocoa butter, a source of healthy fats, which in moderation may support overall energy levels.
Dietary Considerations
Selection and Storage
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, ideally at a temperature between 15-20°C to prevent melting or blooming (whitening of chocolate surface).
