About BUTTERSCOTCH MORSELS, BUTTERSCOTCH
Butterscotch Morsels are a baking ingredient sold under Target's Market Pantry private-label brand, Target's entry-level value store-brand line. Categorized within baking decorations and dessert toppings, these morsels are designed for baking applications including cookies, brownies, blondies, and bars as an alternative to chocolate chips.
The primary ingredient is sugar, followed by hydrogenated palm kernel oil — a fully hydrogenated fat rather than a partially hydrogenated oil, meaning this ingredient should not contain trans fats from the hydrogenation process under USDA terminology, though this distinction is worth noting. Coconut oil is included as an additional fat. Nonfat dry milk and dry whey are the dairy components. Soy lecithin serves as an emulsifier. Colorants include Yellow 6 Lake, Yellow 5 Lake, and Blue 2 Lake, all synthetic FD&C-certified color lakes (insoluble pigment forms used for fat-based applications). Natural and artificial flavors, plus salt, complete the formula. Allergens include dairy and soy.
Nutritionally, these morsels provide 533 calories per 100 grams with 0 grams protein, 73.33 grams carbohydrates, 23.33 grams fat, and 0 grams fiber. The calorie density is high, consistent with a high-sugar, high-fat baking chip product. Not suitable for vegan, dairy-free, or soy-free diets. The presence of hydrogenated palm kernel oil should be noted by consumers monitoring saturated fat intake. Serving size per the USDA entry is 15 grams.
