RIZ AU LAIT SAVEUR VANILLE 8 x 115g - European Score 100/100

European Score analysis

Intermarché's Riz au Lait Saveur Vanille, sold under the Paturages brand, is a French vanilla rice pudding achieving a European Score of 100. The breakdown shows full marks for company headquarters (35) and manufacturing confirmed in Saint-Père-en-Retz, Pays de la Loire (35), with 15 for distribution, 5 for proximity, and 10 for ingredients. Certifications score zero, though the product carries French Milk, FSC Mix, Nutriscore B, and Triman labels.

In the vanilla flavored rice pudding category, this product ranks at the 78th percentile among 58 assessed products, a strong relative position. The Nutriscore B label is the strongest nutritional rating in this batch and, while it does not affect the European Score directly, signals a more balanced nutritional composition relative to typical dessert products.

For European-minded shoppers, this rice pudding has a notably specific and transparent provenance chain: rice from the Camargue in Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, milk from France, and manufacturing in a named Pays de la Loire commune. The Camargue is one of the few European regions with a significant rice cultivation tradition, making this an unusual example of a processed dessert with identifiable European agricultural origins for its primary starch ingredient. The combination of a 78th percentile ranking, French Milk labelling, and precise manufacturing location makes this one of the more transparently sourced products in its category for European-minded consumers.
