Cocoa butter alternative

Cocoa butter alternative is a fat used in place of cocoa butter in food products. The figures here describe a mixture of cocoa butter equivalents, replacers and substitutes, based on analysis and literature sources. It mainly provides fat and energy: per 100g, it contains 100g of fat, including 59g of saturated fat, and supplies 3689 kJ of energy.

Fat provides energy and helps the body absorb fat-soluble vitamins. The saturated fat content is relevant for people watching their saturated fat intake, while the energy content is worth noting for those monitoring energy intake. Full nutrient figures are provided in the tables below.

About these figures

Values are per 100g of the food as described (Analysis and literature sources; mixture of cocoa butter equivalent, replacer and substitute). "Trace" means only a very small amount was found. Nutrients that were not measured are not shown. Salt is calculated from sodium.

These figures come from an older part of the dataset that is no longer updated. Original source: Miscellaneous Foods Supplement, 1994.
