  • sweetener to taste · The amount is missing or could not be verified.

Estimate for the modified recipe

Original recipe GL unavailable

The estimate applies to the ingredients, amounts and preparation described below.

Calculated GL · calculated part below 1 / serving

Confidence · Low Some values or assumptions in the calculation are uncertain.

The estimate uses the ingredients and amounts in this version and the available source data. Small amounts of carbohydrate were left out of the calculation.

This refers only to the calculated part. Omitted carbohydrate may increase total GL; its effect is not included in this number.

How was the estimate calculated?

This estimate applies only to the amounts and preparation details below. The original recipe nutrition is not a macro package for this version.

Only the cream-row calculated part:0.22/serving. Omitted GI-unmatched carbohydrate is0.9625g/serving, more than the0.725g included. Its effect is not known to be zero. Product declarations are nominal upper bounds, not batch guarantees; this is not a measured whole-dessert GL.

GI-unmatched available carbohydrate omitted, up to 1 g/serving. Its effect is not assumed to be zero.

Confidence: low. An ingredient-based estimate, not a measurement of the prepared meal.
