Free sugar vs total sugar
Where the sugar comes from: Leon Chocolate and Almond Butter Tiffin
| Portion | Total sugar | Free (added) sugar | Naturally occurring | Free sugar in teaspoons |
|---|
| Per portion | 17.3g | 17g | 0.3g | 4.2 tsp |
Boone estimates that 17g of the 17.3g total sugar is free sugar, from the syrups, added sugar and chocolate in the ingredient list. The remaining 0.3g is naturally present in milk and dairy, vegetables and pulses and grains. LEON publishes total sugar only, so this split is Boone's estimate.
NHS daily free sugar limits: 30g for adults and children 11+, 24g age 7 to 10, 19g age 4 to 6. Sugars naturally present in milk and whole fruit are excluded. Sugars in fruit juice, purées, syrups and plant drinks made from hydrolysed grains count as free sugar.
Ultra-processed food: what is really in it
Processing and additives: Leon Chocolate and Almond Butter Tiffin
Leon Chocolate and Almond Butter Tiffin is made with a published list of at least 29 distinct ingredients. Reading it closely, it contains emulsifiers, flavourings, thickeners, gums and gelling agents, industrial sugars and raising agents. These are not there to add nutritional value. They make industrial production and distribution possible.
Emulsifiers
Keep fat and water mixed so the texture stays even and does not separate.
Flavourings
Add or restore flavour that processing has taken away.
Thickeners, gums and gelling agents
Hold texture and stop sauces, fillings or dairy from separating.
Industrial sugars
Refined sugars made from starch, used for sweetness, browning or bulk.
Raising agents
Release gas during baking so the product rises consistently.
Boone classifies Leon Chocolate and Almond Butter Tiffin as NOVA group 4, ultra-processed, based on the published ingredient list. NOVA groups foods by how far they are from their whole-food form, not by how nutritious they are. A group 4 food is not automatically unhealthy, and a group 1 food is not automatically healthy.

Contains = named in the ingredient list LEON publishes in its Foodie Fact Sheet. LEON handles all 14 allergens in its restaurants and cannot guarantee any dish or drink is allergen free. Oats are marked as contains because the ingredient list names oats. LEON uses gluten-free oats here and does not list oats in its allergen summary, but oats are still one of the cereals UK law requires to be declared. Ask in restaurant before ordering if you have an allergy. Retrieved 30 September 2026.
