Sugar

Lotus Biscoff Lotus Biscoff Chocolate contains 8.8g of free sugar per piece. Each piece weighs 22g. Two pieces deliver 17.6g of free sugar and 220 calories. The Lotus Biscoff chocolate variant coats the caramelised biscuit in a layer of milk chocolate, combining the caramel flavour with added chocolate sugar.

All added sugar in Lotus Biscoff Chocolate counts as free sugar under NHS guidelines. Sugar from jam, chocolate, caramel, fondant or iced toppings all counts in the same way as sugar added to the biscuit dough itself.

At 8.8g per piece, Lotus Biscoff Chocolate is among the higher-sugar options in this guide. Two pieces deliver 17.6g of free sugar, which is 93% of the daily limit for a child aged 4 to 6 and 73% for a child aged 7 to 10.

Because each Lotus Biscoff Chocolate is a single 22g piece rather than a small biscuit, it is realistically eaten one or two at a time rather than three or four. The figures in this guide use two as the reference quantity for that reason.

Saturated fat

Lotus Biscoff Chocolate contains 3g of saturated fat per piece. Two pieces deliver 6g of saturated fat, 30% of the adult daily guideline of 20g.

This is a high saturated fat content for a biscuit. The saturated fat comes from the chocolate coating or cream filling, which uses vegetable fats and cocoa butter. High saturated fat intake is associated with raised LDL cholesterol, which is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease.

Recommended daily maximum saturated fat intake

Age 4 to 6No more than 10g per day
Age 7 to 10No more than 13g per day
Age 11 to 17No more than 17g per day
AdultNo more than 20g per day

Source: NHS/SACN dietary fat guidelines. Saturated fat consumption is linked to raised LDL cholesterol and cardiovascular disease risk.

Fibre

Lotus Biscoff Chocolate contains 0.4g of fibre per piece. Two pieces provide 0.8g of fibre, a small contribution toward the adult daily target of 30g.

Most biscuits made from refined flour  are low in fibre. If increasing fibre intake is a priority, oat-based or wholegrain biscuits typically offer more.

Protein

Lotus Biscoff Chocolate contains 1.3g of protein per piece. Two pieces provide 2.6g of protein. Biscuits are not a significant protein source; protein in a child's diet comes primarily from dairy, meat, fish, eggs and pulses.

Fibre and protein per piece

Adult fibre target: 30g per day (SACN). Child protein target shown: 24g per day (guide for a 7 to 10 year old).

Whole grain and processing

Lotus Biscoff Chocolate is made from refined flour, and falls into NOVA group 4 under the food processing classification system used in nutrition research.

Whole grain

Lotus Biscoff Chocolate is made from refined flour rather than whole grain. This is typical of most biscuits and is reflected in the low fibre content of 0.4g per piece. The bran and germ layers of the grain that contain most of the naturally occurring fibre are removed during the refining process.

Processing (NOVA classification)

Lotus Biscoff Chocolate falls into NOVA group 4, ultra-processed foods. This reflects the combination of refined ingredients, added sugar, flavourings, and industrial processing methods used to produce the final product. The NOVA group 4 classification applies to the vast majority of packaged biscuits, regardless of whether they contain wholegrain ingredients.

Salt

Lotus Biscoff Chocolate contains 0.1g of salt per piece. Two pieces contain 0.2g of salt. Salt is not the primary nutritional concern for most biscuits; the sugar and saturated fat content are more significant.
