Common questions

Is Nestlé Hot Chocolate healthy?

Nestlé Hot Chocolate scores 77/100 on Tallow — our clean band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

What is in Nestlé Hot Chocolate?

Nestlé Hot Chocolate lists 5 ingredients, starting with Sugar, Full Cream Milk Powder, Cocoa Powder, Salt and Flavouring. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

Does Nestlé Hot Chocolate contain seed oils?

No. Nothing in Nestlé Hot Chocolate’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".

How processed is Nestlé Hot Chocolate?

Nestlé Hot Chocolate is NOVA group 4: ultra-processed. That is the top of the scale and the classification the score penalises most heavily.
