A sugary chocolate-coated marshmallow treat - fine occasionally, but high in sugar and contains egg allergen.
This is an ultra-processed confectionery with 75g sugar per 100g and a Nutri-Score of E, so it's best treated as an occasional sweet, not a regular snack. It contains egg and may carry traces of gluten, milk, nuts and peanuts, which matters for allergy sufferers. The additives used (citric acid, sodium carbonate, carrageenan) are all EU/FDA-approved and pose no real risk at these levels.

What matters
- Caution
Egg white powder — Contains egg; may have traces of gluten, milk, nuts and peanuts - relevant for allergies.
- Caution
75g sugar per 100g and Nutri-Score E mean this is a high-sugar treat, not everyday food.
- Not enough evidence
Salt listed at 15g/100g is unusually high for this product type - worth checking the physical label.
Why it matters
This product is a chocolate-covered marshmallow ('zephyr') flavored with vanilla. The chocolate coating (30%) and marshmallow base are made mostly of sugar, glucose syrup and cocoa products, with egg white powder used as a foaming/binding agent. For most healthy people, occasional consumption poses no meaningful health risk. The main things that matter here are (1) it's a high-sugar, low-nutrient sweet best eaten in small amounts and not daily, and (2) it contains egg, with possible cross-contact with gluten, milk, nuts and peanuts, which matters a lot if you or someone eating it has those allergies.
