Our take

CleanPlate review

A nut-butter protein bar, with a sugar question.

Stroom Choco Almond Bliss is built on milk protein concentrate and soy protein isolate, with peanut and almond butters, cocoa, oats, honey and chocolate.

CleanPlate scores it BA3. The B for nutrition reflects 22.8 g of protein and 7.3 g of fibre. The A for ingredients reflects a food-first list. The 3 for risk reflects that honey and chocolate add sugar the label doesn't count as added; sodium is very low.

How we score →

01 Nutritional valueA to E

Good nutrient density

Protein: 22.8 g
Fibre: 7.3 g
Vitamins and minerals: Calcium, Iron
Energy: 399 kcal

strong protein (Tier 1 milk protein concentrate + soy isolate), but high total sugar (21.1g/100g, mostly from honey and milk/dark chocolate) pulls down nutrient score

Scored on eight nutrients (protein, fibre, calcium, iron, vitamins A, C, D and zinc), per 100 g and per 100 kcal.

02 Ingredient & label integrityA to E

Clean, minimally processed

Base: Protein Blend
Main fat: Peanut Butter
Sweeteners: Honey
Additives: 1
Flagged: None

Scored on six things: base processing, fat quality, sweeteners, additives, colours and flavours.

03 Risk nutrients1 to 5

Moderate risk

Added sugar: 0 g
Sodium: 32.3 mg
Saturated fat: 5.6 g
Trans fat: 0 g

total 40: energy 399 kcal (6) + free sugar 21.1 g = 21.2% (3; v3.4: honey listed with 0 g added sugar declared, so total sugar used) + sat-fat share 12.7% (6) + sodium 0.08 mg/kcal (25). Re-scored Sept 26, 2026 (was 2).

Scored on added sugar, sodium and saturated fat, with a penalty for trans fat.
