About Candies, ALMOND JOY Candy Bar
Almond Joy is a coconut lover's candy bar: a bed of sweetened, moist coconut topped with whole almonds and covered in milk chocolate. The coconut and nuts give it a chewy, substantial bite and a tropical flavor quite different from the caramel-and-nougat bars it sits beside.
That coconut also makes it one of the higher-fat bars, at about 27 grams of fat per 100 grams — much of it the saturated fat naturally found in coconut — alongside roughly 479 calories and 48 grams of sugar. One genuine upside of all that coconut is fiber: at around 5 grams per 100 grams, Almond Joy has more than most candy bars. A standard bar weighs about 46 grams, working out to roughly 215 calories and 22 grams of sugar.
The whole almonds add a little protein, vitamin E and minerals, and the coconut brings that bit of fiber, but this remains a sweet treat rather than a health food. The dark-chocolate Mounds bar is the closely related cousin — same coconut center, no almond, covered in dark chocolate instead of milk.
