European Score analysis

The Crousti caramel product, manufactured by Protifast, has a European score of 96. This high score can be attributed to the company's headquarters and manufacturing processes, both of which contribute 35 points to the overall score. The distribution of the product also adds 15 points, while the proximity of the manufacturing place to the origin of the product contributes 5 points. However, the ingredients used in the product only contribute 6 points, and there are no certifications that add to the score.

The product's origins and manufacturing places are both located in France, which may be a factor in its high score. The product also carries labels such as "sustainable", "no gluten", and "sustainable palm oil", which may be of interest to shoppers. With a percentile in category of 97 out of 64 products in the caramel chocolate bars category, this product is among the highest scoring in its category.

Shoppers should note that the European score is based on a scale of 100, with higher scores indicating a stronger European connection. The score breakdown provides insight into the product's strengths and weaknesses, with the ingredients being an area for potential improvement. As there are no higher scoring alternatives, shoppers looking for a caramel chocolate bar with a strong European connection may find the Crousti caramel product to be a good option, with its score of 96 exceeding the maximum scores in some categories, such as ingredients, which has a maximum of 10, and proximity, which has a maximum of 5, but not reaching the maximum scores in categories like company headquarters and manufacturing, which have a maximum of 35, and distribution, which has a maximum of 15.
