About BLACK FOREST BAR CAKE
Meijer Black Forest Bar Cake is a refrigerated or bakery-department dessert cake sold under the Meijer private label. The product combines a chocolate cake base with cherry filling and whipped cream topping, following the classic Black Forest (Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte) style. The cherry filling is the first listed major component and is made with cherries, water, sugar, modified corn starch, and glucose, with carrageenan and locust bean gum as stabilizers. The whipped cream component includes cellulose gel and carrageenan alongside cream and milk solids. The cake itself contains enriched wheat flour (with niacin, iron, thiamine mononitrate, riboflavin, and folic acid), eggs, canola oil, cocoa powder processed with alkali, and molasses. Semi-sweet chocolate and a chocolatey coating (using fractionated palm kernel oil) provide additional chocolate elements. Soy lecithin appears as an emulsifier.
Per 100 grams, this product contains 259 calories, 2.47g protein, 29.63g carbohydrates, and 16.05g fat, with 1.2g fiber. The fat content is relatively high due to cream and fractionated palm kernel oil in the chocolatey coating. The calorie density is high for a dessert item. Added sugars are prominent with sugar and glucose as early ingredients.
This product contains multiple major allergens: wheat (enriched flour), eggs, dairy (cream, milk, whey), and soy (soy lecithin). It is not suitable for vegans, vegetarians avoiding eggs, or those with gluten intolerance. The sodium alginate and tetrasodium diphosphate present are food-grade additives used for texture and stability. This is a multi-component baked dessert intended for occasional indulgence rather than regular dietary consumption.
