Biscuit, sweet, chocolate-coated

Commercially prepared sweet biscuit coated in chocolate.

Na, I, fat and fatty acids were derived from 2 individual samples of chocolate coated biscuits (1x Tee Vee Snacks and 1x McVites Digestive) purchased in NSW in 2009 (2008 TFA program). Sugars and some minerals were derived from a composite sample of 6 types of chocolate coated biscuits (Arnotts Monte and Ricco, Westons Choc Crunchies, Chocolate Sticks and Chocolate Wheat, and Peak Freans Choc Galore) purchased in Sydney (1989 - UNSW - Sweet and Savoury Biscuits). Proximates, vitamins and minerals were also derived from a composite sample of 4 types of chocolate coated biscuits (1xWestons Chocolate Wheaten, 1xArnotts Chocolate Monte, 1xArnotts TV Snacks and 1xVickies Bickies Choc Mates) purchased in Adelaide (1987 - AGAL - Cereal Products and Biscuits). Dietary fibre was imputed. Caffeine was determined in a composite sample of chocolate coated, filled and chocolate chip biscuits purchased in Victoria in 2002. Note: low sum of proximates - values should be used with caution.
