Cadbury Dairy Milk Mini Cookies nutrition

Figures from Morrisons product page, collected by Boone. Free sugar estimated by Boone. Last checked 26 October 2026. Data checks are led by Murray Dare.

Free sugar leaves out an estimated 0.9g of lactose per 100g, worked out from the chocolate content on the label (17%) and the legal minimum of 14% milk solids, so the real amount of lactose is likely higher. Lactose is the sugar in milk and is not free sugar.
