Product Overview

Strawberry Nougat Crisp is a 150g pack of the sandwich-style nougat sweet that has become popular across Asia — a layer of chewy nougat with dried strawberry set between two thin, crisp milk biscuits.

The appeal is the contrast: the biscuit snaps, the nougat pulls, and the dried strawberry gives it a sharpness that cuts the sweetness. It is rich, so a piece or two is usually enough.

Ingredients, As Printed

The pack lists: biscuits (wheat flour, vegetable oil, whole milk powder, salt, maltitol liquid, ammonium bicarbonate, sodium bicarbonate), maltitol liquid, maltose syrup, dried strawberry, whole milk powder, gel candy, anhydrous butter, anhydrous cream, butter, beef gelatin, trehalose, salt and food flavouring.

Two things worth pulling out of that list:

• Beef gelatin. See the halal note below — this is the ingredient that decides it.
• Maltitol. It is a sugar alcohol, and in larger amounts it has a laxative effect. Fine in a piece or two; do not eat the pack in one sitting.

Halal Status – the Honest Answer

This product contains beef gelatin. Whether beef gelatin is halal depends entirely on how the animal was slaughtered, and that is not something a shop can determine from a packet.

If the pack carries a halal certification mark, that mark is your answer. If it does not, we cannot supply one, and we will not pretend to. Message us before ordering and we will tell you exactly what is printed on the pack we hold.

Allergy Information

Imported snacks are usually made on lines that also handle peanuts, tree nuts, milk, wheat, soya and egg, so a pack can carry traces of an ingredient that is not in the recipe.

If you or your child has a food allergy, read the allergen statement on the pack before opening it. We list what we know from the product, but the printed pack is the only thing that can be relied on, and recipes change without notice.

What This Is, Honestly

This is a snack. It is here because it tastes good, not because it is good for you, and the copy on this page is not going to pretend otherwise.

Crisps, chocolate and sweet biscuits are high in some combination of salt, sugar and fat, and they are best treated as an occasional treat alongside real meals rather than as a substitute for one. The nutrition panel on the pack gives you the actual numbers per 100g and per serving — worth a look if you are watching salt or sugar.

About Imported Packs

This is a genuine imported product, sourced from the market printed on the pack. That means the label, the ingredient list and the nutrition panel are the ones the manufacturer printed for that country, and the wording may differ from a locally packaged version of the same brand.

Check the expiry date on the pack when it arrives. The pack’s own ingredient list and instructions are the authority on its contents — always read them, especially if you are buying for someone with an allergy or a dietary restriction.

Storage

• Keep the pack somewhere cool and dry, away from direct sunlight.
• Once opened, reseal it tightly or move it into an airtight container. Crisps and biscuits go soft within a day in Dhaka humidity if left open.
• Eat an opened pack within a few days for the best texture — the expiry date on the pack applies to the unopened pack.
• If the pack has arrived punctured or already open, do not eat it. Message us instead.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it halal?

It contains beef gelatin. Whether that is halal depends on the slaughter, which the packet may or may not certify. Ask us and we will read you the pack.

Is it suitable for vegetarians?

No. Beef gelatin is an animal product.

How should I store it once it is open?

Airtight, cool and dry, and eaten within a few days. The date on the pack is for the sealed pack; once air and Dhaka humidity get in, texture goes long before the date does.

How do I check the expiry date?

It is printed on the pack — usually on the base, the seal or the back panel, and often as a “best before” date. Check it as soon as your order arrives. If it is unreadable or very close, message us and we will replace it.
