Details on the Pack
Primary Packaging
Taste Experience of Dairy Milk Butterscotch
I opened the pack, as you know it's chocolate. What did I sense? It’s chocolate with slight milk aroma and mild vanilla flavour.
Dairy Milk visually looks chocolate brown in colour and rectangle in shape. 4 cubes are present in two rows. Cadbury logo is embossed on each chocolate cube.
Chocolate delivers a smooth sense, when it is touched. It is easy to break and splits into cubes easily.
At first bite, the chocolate gives the crunchier feel because of butterscotch added in the treat. When chocolate reaches the tongue, it slowly dissolves and delivers the taste of butterscotch with sweetness and vanilla taste. The chocolate takes time to melt in the tongue.
Smooth, waxy and chill mouthfeel is observed. After eating the treat. Chocolate flavour can be sensed for a few minutes which further makes me mouthwatering to consume more.
Dairy Milk Butterscotch’s Ingredients
The ingredients used in Dairy Milk Butterscotch are sugar, milk solids, butterscotch, cocoa butter, cocoa solids, edible vegetable fat, emulsifiers and added flavours.
To understand ingredients better, Looking into the first two lines which are given as ‘Milk chocolate from Category 5.1.3’ and ‘Butterscotch as Sugar boiled confectionery from category 5.2.1’, indicates that these are two different products that are made separately. Then they are added together to form the Dairy Milk Butterscotch Crunch.The two parts in Dairy Milk Butterscotch are as follows:
A. Milk Chocolate
B. Butterscotch
A. Milk Chocolate
Multiple ingredients are used to produce this milk chocolate. The ingredients used in making the Milk Chocolate are as follows:
Source : Sugarcane
How : From sugarcane, the juice is extracted, filtered and purified. Then the juice is crystallized to produce sugar.
Why : Sugar acts as a base ingredient which gives structure to the chocolate, helps in improving texture, sweetness and preservation.
Amount Added : 20 %
Source : Milk
How : Milk solids are the powdered form of milk. Milk solids are produced by evaporation and spray drying of milk.
Why : Milk solids are here to give the milk flavour and rich mouthfeel to the chocolate.
Source : Cocoa Beans
How : Cocoa beans are fermented, dried, roasted, dehulled and grounded to produce chocolate liquor. In this state, it contains equal quantities of finely grounded cocoa solids and cocoa butter from which cocoa butter is separated.
Why : In milk chocolates, cocoa butter plays the role of adding creaminess and rich mouthfeel to the chocolate.
Source : Cocoa Beans
How : Cocoa beans are fermented, dried, roasted, dehulled and grounded to produce chocolate liquor. In this state, it contains equal quantities of finely grounded cocoa solids and cocoa butter. Cocoa solids are solids that remain after the cocoa butter extraction from this liquor.
Why : Cocoa solids gives the chocolate, its flavour and imparts brown colour to the milk chocolate.
- Edible Vegetable Fat
Source : Plant Source
How : Oil is extracted from plant sources which then undergoes refining and fractionation (cooling) to separate solid fat from liquid oil.
Why : Edible vegetable fat is added to replace cocoa butter at a particular ratio i.e. it adds organoleptic and sensory properties close to the cocoa butter.
- INS 442
Name : Ammonium Phosphatides
Source : Industry
How : Glycerol and hydrogenated rapeseed oil react together under certain conditions and the reacted mixture is allowed to react with phosphorus pentoxide which leads to the formation of phosphatidic acid. This is then allowed to react with ammonia and filtered, to get ammonium phosphatides.
Why : Ammonium phosphatides keep the ingredients bound together and increase the flow rate during production i.e. it reduces viscosity of chocolate.
- INS 476
Name : Polyglycerol Polyricinoleate
Source : Polyglycerol and Castor oil.
How : Castor oil is hydrolyzed and made to react with polyglycerol. Both compounds undergo interesterification which produces polyglycerol ester i.e. PGPR.
Why : PGPR holds the ingredients together and reduce the viscosity of chocolate i.e. it helps the liquid chocolate to get filled in the moulding. It also helps in releasing air bubbles and reduces blooming of the chocolate.
There are multiple flavourings added in the Dairy Milk Butterscotch Crunch and these flavours are given as common for both milk chocolate and butterscotch. To separate and identify the flavourings used in the Milk Chocolate let us check the flavourings which are listed in the Dairy Milk Chocolate, which is the Milk chocolate in this product (came to this conclusion as the ingredients are similar) which has these following flavours in them. this shows that the following flavours are added to the Milk chocolate and the other flavour ingredient Toffee is added to the Butterscotch

Rich Smooth and Creamy Classic Milk Chocolate.
Which ingredients cause the rich smooth and creamy type of the product?
Milk solids, cocoa butter and edible vegetable fat are responsible. Cocoa Butter and Edible Vegetable Fat gives a smooth and creamy texture. The edible vegetable fat causes the creamy and smooth texture at a reduced cost than the cocoa butter (it’s expensive). Milk solids give richness as well as it adds to the smooth and creamy texture (from the fat in Milk solids).
Why is whitish layered Dairy milk Butterscotch is fit to consume?
When a whitish layer is on the food, it normally means the food is bad. But it is different in chocolate products. There are two main reasons for this whitish layer to develop
- When the chocolate is exposed to high moisture, water draws the sugar to the surface of the chocolate. So the sugar content in the chocolate crystallizes. This results in white layer on the chocolate’s surface.
- Another reason is that when the chocolate is exposed to high temperature, the fat crystal in the product breaks down and it moves to the surface of the product. This causes white layer.
Hereby, we can understand that the layer formed is due to simple reasons which doesn’t affect the state of fitness for consumption. Thus, the formed whitish layer is not harmful for health and the chocolate is still fit to consume.
