About CREAMY FUDGE FROSTING, CREAMY FUDGE
Meijer Creamy Fudge Frosting is a ready-to-use chocolate frosting sold under the Meijer private-label brand of Meijer, Inc., the Grand Rapids, Michigan-based Midwest supercenter chain. Sugar is the dominant ingredient, followed by partially hydrogenated vegetable shortening (soybean oil and/or cottonseed oil). The presence of partially hydrogenated oils in this formulation is significant: partially hydrogenated vegetable oils were declared no longer GRAS by the FDA effective June 2018 for most food applications. This USDA record may represent a legacy formulation; consumers should consult current packaging for updated ingredient declarations. Other ingredients include water, high fructose corn syrup, alkalized cocoa, emulsifiers (mono- and diglycerides, polysorbate 60, soy lecithin), corn starch, modified wheat starch, and natural and artificial flavor.
Additional components include potassium sorbate (preservative), citric acid, dextrose, and synthetic colorants Red 40 Lake, Blue 2 Lake, and Yellow 5 Lake, which are FD&C certified dyes used to adjust the frosting's visual appearance. Agar is used as a gelling agent. The combination of partially hydrogenated shortening, HFCS, and synthetic dyes is consistent with older-generation store-brand frosting formulations.
Per 100 g, this frosting contains 424 calories, 63.64 g carbohydrates, 18.18 g fat, 0 g protein, and 3.00 g fiber. Sugar and HFCS together drive an extremely high added sugar content. Major allergens present include wheat (modified wheat starch) and soy (soy lecithin). The product is not suitable for gluten-free, vegan (due to potential dairy cross-contact from emulsifiers and unclear sourcing), or low-sugar dietary approaches.
