The Take
Coop Dark Chocolate Butter Biscuits fail the healthy test because wheat flour and glucose syrup overpower the modest real butter. Dark chocolate chunks add cocoa payoff yet sugar and syrup still run the show.
The 7% butter and cocoa butter deliver actual animal fat instead of seed oils, a small win in an otherwise industrial product. Raising agents confirm the ultra-processed nature that turns a simple biscuit into another wheat-sugar delivery vehicle.
The Verdict
The butter makes a valiant stand but cannot overcome the processed wheat and glucose load. Dark chocolate provides the only real bright spot in an otherwise standard ultra-processed biscuit.
Skip the pack. Buy a bar of 85% dark chocolate instead — fewer ingredients, same cocoa payoff, zero biscuit bloat.
