Density 20 · +11 vs Sweets medianStrawberry topping is a syrupy fruit sauce, and it scores 20 of 100 on the Nutrient Density Score, a Low band that ranks it 14th of 60 foods in the Sweets category. Its one meaningful nutrient credential is vitamin C at 15% DV, carried over from the strawberries used to make it, though the topping is mostly sugar and water by weight.
It's typically spooned over ice cream, pancakes, or cheesecake, or stirred into plain yogurt for extra sweetness. The reference tbsp serving weighs 42 g, and portion size matters because the topping runs high in sugars at 27.4 g per 100 g, more than a quarter of its total weight.
