Original analysis by NutriVerdict
Density 42 · +33 vs Sweets medianEgg custard dry mix scores 42 of 100, a Fair rating, but that's an unusually strong showing for the Sweets category: it ranks 3rd of 60, far above the group's median score of just 9. The mix carries modest but real nutrition, with 18% of the Daily Value for calcium, 14% for protein, and 11% each for potassium and iron per 100 g.
This is a powdered base meant to be whisked with milk and eggs and baked into a set custard, rather than eaten as-is. A package serving runs 85 g of dry mix, and the main caveat is cholesterol: the mix carries a notable 258 mg per 100 g, likely from its egg content, worth factoring in for anyone watching dietary cholesterol.
