Masterfoods, a division of Mars UK Limited, exercises every care in providing this product information, changes may occur in the future.

We have also enclosed a list of frequently asked questions and answers on our confectionery products that we hope you will find useful.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS & ANSWERS ON OUR CONFECTIONERY PRODUCTS

What is the origin of the gelatine present in some of our products?
The gelatine we use is derived from pork. Clearly, products containing gelatine are not included in our vegetarian suitable lists.

What is the origin of the glycerol (E422) you use?
It is of vegetable origin.

Is the whey powder present in your chocolate suitable for vegetarians?
Currently, products made in the UK contain whey powder from suppliers who use rennet approved by the UK Vegetarian Society. Products made in our factories on the continent contain whey powder from suppliers who use rennet of calf origin: these products, therefore, are not included in our vegetarian suitable lists. Some of our products containing whey powder, which are made on the continent but sold in the UK are: BOUNTY, FUNSIZE MARS, FUNSIZE SNICKERS, FUNSIZE MILKY WAY, MILKY WAY, MILKY WAY Crispy Rolls, GALAXY Caramel Swirls, TWIX Kingsize, CELEBRATIONS and chocolate covered ice creams.

The products listed as being suitable for vegetarians are usually manufactured in the UK. Occasionally, however, we import some of these products from our factories on the continent. The imported products will not be suitable for vegetarians. These bars can be identified by the letter after the best before date, for example 27-07-02 N 5C. The letter U after the best can identify bars made in the UK before date, for example 27-07-02 U 5C. We would suggest that you check the best before date to ensure that the product is manufactured in the UK.

What is the origin of glycerol monostearate (E471)?
It is of vegetable origin.

What is the origin of polyglycerol polyricinoleate E476)?
It is of vegetable origin.

What is the origin of the food colouring Carmine (E120)?
Carmine is a natural red colour extracted from the bodies of insects (Dactilopius Coccus).

Shellac
Products on the attached list may contain Shellac. The female Lac insect produces a resin to cocoon the eggs that she lays. When the newly hatched insects leave the cocoon it is harvested to produce Shellac. Shellac is like honey in that it is a by-product made by the insect, it is therefore considered suitable for Vegetarians.
If you need any further information or advice please contact our Consumer Careline on the telephone number below and one of our Consumer Care Advisors will be more than happy to help you.

Kind regards.
