Allergens, trace warnings & additives

Allergen names found in the ingredient text

Egg

Detected from the recipe text, not a complete allergen declaration or an allergy-safety assessment.

Declared allergens in the record

No allergen information is recorded. This is not an allergen-free claim.

Precautionary “may contain” information

No trace statement is recorded. Absence of data does not mean absence of cross-contact.

Trace warnings are kept separate from recipe ingredients. Do not use this page to decide whether food is safe for an allergy.

Additives listed

No additives are listed in the available record. This is not an additive-free certification.

Insufficient data

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.

Source values per 100 g or 100 ml, as supplied by the record. Confirm the basis on the package; these are not per-serving values.

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 TARGET product?

No. This page covers TARGET 12 DAYS OF GUMMY CANDY, 14.75 OZ, barcode 085239217924. 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 glycerol, flavourings, unspecified oil, Minerals, sanded christmas trees & snowmen, jelly wreaths, glaze, holiday jujus, assorted sour drops, christmas gummy bears, gummy jet fighters, gummy snow flurries, sour mini neon gummy worms 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.

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?
