PRIMARY USES

1. Energy-Dense Nutritional Support with Unique Flavour Profile
Primary Use: Provides classic Cadbury Dairy Milk chocolate combined with rum-flavoured raisins (20%), offering a concentrated source of energy (501 kJ per 25g serving) with a distinctive flavour profile that may appeal to patients with taste alterations or reduced appetite during treatment.
How it helps: For the dietitian and clinician, patients with cancer cachexia, malabsorption disorders, or recovering from illness often have poor appetite and elevated energy needs. A 25g serving provides 501 kJ (approx. 120 kcal), 5.5g fat, and 15.5g carbohydrates. The unique combination of smooth milk chocolate with chewy, rum-infused raisins offers sensory variety that may stimulate the palate when appetite is poor.

For the patient, this offers a comforting, familiar treat that can help boost caloric intake while providing sensory pleasure.

The varied textures—smooth, creamy, and chewy—offer sensory variety that can appeal to altered taste perceptions. The rum flavour adds a warm, aromatic note that may be appealing when other flavours are not well-tolerated. For the patient, this offers an accessible, enjoyable way to increase caloric intake without feeling overwhelmed.
