About Candies, MARS SNACKFOOD US, DOVE Dark Chocolate
Dove Dark Chocolate is a premium dark chocolate known for its smooth, melt-in-the-mouth texture. Because it is built on a higher proportion of cocoa than milk chocolate, it carries more of cocoa's natural components — and less added milk sugar — which sets its nutrition apart from a typical milk-chocolate candy.
Per 100 grams it provides about 520 calories, with roughly 32 grams of fat and 59 grams of carbohydrate, of which about 46 grams are sugar — notably less sugar than most milk chocolates. The cocoa also brings genuine extras: about 7.6 grams of fiber and 3.2 milligrams of iron per 100 grams, with almost no sodium (around 4 milligrams). The catch is saturated fat, which is very high at about 19 grams per 100 grams from the cocoa butter. A standard bar of about 41 grams comes to roughly 213 calories, around 19 grams of sugar and close to 8 grams of saturated fat.
As candies go, dark chocolate is one of the more substantial choices — real cocoa fiber and iron, less sugar than milk chocolate, and virtually no sodium. The saturated fat from cocoa butter is the number to watch, so a square or two rather than the whole bar is the sensible way to enjoy it.
