Animal-derived ingredients identified
Milk is an animal-derived dairy ingredient.
Ingredients with an unresolved source
The source or production method of dough can vary, so it is not always vegan.
This ingredient name is in the source dictionary, but it is not yet covered by a verified assessment. This is not evidence of animal origin.
Natural flavours can come from plant or animal sources.
Additional evidence
The source data identifies this product as vegetarian, which does not by itself confirm vegan status.

- Nutrition + processing
Nutri-Score is the grade reported in the source, not a score calculated or certified by us. NOVA describes processing. The Veganory indicator is a separate estimate; it does not determine whether a product is vegan.

How our indicator is calculated
When available, Nutri-Score A–E maps to 92, 74, 55, 34 or 16 points. With NOVA present, we combine 80% of those points with 20% of the processing indicator (100, 82, 52 or 16 for groups 1–4). Without NOVA we use the nutrition points alone. Without a usable Nutri-Score, we do not rate the product. This is a simplified comparison aid, not a validated health assessment.

Questions about this product
Is this answer valid for every Dorset Cereals product?
No. This page covers Dorset Cereals Blackcurrant, cherry & raspberry bars, barcode 5018357008834. Other flavours, package versions or recipes sold in different countries may differ. Match the barcode and ingredient list on your package.
What still needs to be confirmed?
The source of dough, aspic, natural flavours needs clarification. Check the current package for a vegan certification or ask the manufacturer about these exact ingredients. A confidence label is not a certification.
Does “may contain” make it non-vegan?
A precautionary trace statement describes possible cross-contact, not an ingredient intentionally included in the recipe. We keep it separate from the recipe assessment. This distinction does not establish allergy safety.
Is the nutrition rating the same as the vegan result?
No. Vegan status concerns ingredient origin. Nutri-Score describes a nutrition profile, NOVA describes processing, and the Veganory score is our own combination of available indicators. A vegan result does not mean a food is nutritionally balanced.
What if my label is different?
