What we say

The pack describes MILLS & WARE'S Muffin Bars as ‘a great ‘melt-in-your-mouth’ any time treat’ that's 'great for lunch boxes, picnics or parties'. It sounds like you could eat them every day, but essentially they're just small cakes, so the emphasis here needs to be on the word 'treat'.

The individually wrapped servings are helpful as a means of portion control. But just one little bar still provides around 15% of the daily amount of sugars acceptable for an eight-year-old, so don't be tempted to throw more than one in you child's lunchbox.

Additives listed: glycerine (472), modified mazie starch (1442), sodium bicarbonate (500), calcium carbonate (170), phosphate (450), emulsifier (471, 475, 477), preservative (202), carotene (160a), citric acid (330).
